Apple and Google are not sponsors, administrators, or affiliated with any Play Savvy contests and promotions, and bear no responsibility for their conduct or prizes.

ENTRY VIA PLAY SAVVY ACCOUNT AND INTERNET CONNECTION ARE REQUIRED. 

BY ENTERING THE CONTESTS YOU (“PLAYER”) AGREE TO THESE OFFICIAL RULES (THE “OFFICIAL RULES”), WHICH ARE A CONTRACT, SO READ THEM CAREFULLY BEFORE ENTERING. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THIS CONTRACT INCLUDES INDEMNITIES TO THE SPONSOR FROM YOU AND A LIMITATION OF YOUR RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

Sponsor

Play Savvy and all of the Play Savvy games (the “Contests”) are sponsored by Play Savvy, Inc., (“Sponsor” or “Play Savvy”), 9041 Garland Ave. #1042 Dallas, TX 75218 USA.

Eligibility

The Contests are open only to legal residents of any of the fifty (50) United States, or the District of Columbia, who are at least eighteen (18) years of age (or the age of majority, if higher than 18) on the date of entry and who have an Eligible Play Savvy Account. An “Eligible Play Savvy Account” means a Play Savvy account that has successfully completed identity verification and account setup steps on the Play Savvy app or website, or in the case of a Minor, an “Eligible Play Savvy Account” is one where the account has been authorized by a Parent that has successfully completed the account creation steps. Employees, officers, directors, members, managers, agents, and representatives and of Sponsor, parent companies, divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors in interest, advertising, promotion, and public relations agencies (collectively, the "Contest Entities") and family members of such individuals (or people living in the same household whether related or not) are not eligible. For the purposes of the Contest, family members are defined as spouse, partner, mother, father, legal guardian, in-laws, grandmother, grandfather, brother, sister, children and grandchildren (including "step" as they may apply).

Notice to all international entrants: As stated above, it is your responsibility to comply with the contest laws of your country/jurisdiction. You acknowledge that certain countries/jurisdictions have laws regarding Contests that may prevent Sponsor from awarding you your Prize (as defined below). If you are a winner and this happens to be the case with your country/jurisdiction, you acknowledge that you may not be able to receive any Prize at all from Sponsor. By entering this Contest, you acknowledge the risks, and understand that you may win, but not be able to receive a Prize.

Contests Timing

The Contests will be hosted on the Play Savvy app at various times as determined solely by Sponsor.

Sponsor will announce Contests through the Play Savvy app or through social media channels from time to time. Sponsor has no obligation to provide any prior notice before beginning a Contest. It is your responsibility to monitor for announcements or the start of any Contest. Sponsor reserves the right to cancel Contests, in its sole discretion, with no restrictions, or liability to any person, player, or entity. Any entry fees prepaid for a Contest that is cancelled will be refunded.

How To Play

A Contest will be a points-based game where Players will attempt to answer a sequence of questions, solve puzzles, or perform other forms of skill-based challenges correctly, and earn points for correct answers, speed, accuracy, and other objective skill-based achievements. Players will earn the points designated per question or task, which shall increase over time throughout the game, and may earn additional points at various points in the game within the designated time frame. Any Player who successfully completes the questions, puzzles, or other skill-based tasks shall earn points and will have an opportunity to be selected as a winner of the game (each, a “Winner”). There may be more than one Winner of any given Contest.

Play a Contest by completing each of the following steps:

• Login to your Play Savvy app and navigate to the Play Savvy game of choice.

• Engage with the game on the app at the appropriate time

• When the Contest begins, you will have a set amount of time (e.g. 10 seconds) to answer each question, puzzle, skill (this amount of time may vary between Contests).

• Answer questions, puzzles, skills correctly to earn points, and accumulate the most points to win a pre-determined and previously disclosed Prize. 

• Play Savvy will verify your gameplay and score for accuracy and any system errors before declaring you a Winner. If you are a Winner, follow the prompts and provide the requested information and click “submit” to receive your Prize or your portion of the Prize.

Your player username will be displayed throughout the duration of each Contest. If you do not wish for your username to be displayed, do not participate in the Contest. A player is allowed 1 entry into each Contest, and cannot use multiple accounts to participate.

Prize

Winning Prize amounts will be confirmed on a winnings screen and/or email to the user.  Amounts seen on the screen at the time of winning should not be considered final until shown in the winning screen or email.

The Winners, upon providing the requested information and completion of all verifications and obligation requirements described in these Official Rules, will receive the Prize, the amount of which will be determined in Sponsor’s sole discretion and may vary between Contests (the "Prize"). If no Player answers all questions, skills, puzzles correctly or doesn’t do better than the host there will be no Winner. If there is no Winner, players are not entitled to any refunds. 

In an optional “split” Prize format, each Winner will receive their pro rata portion of the total Prize for that Contest. If there is one Winner, that Player will receive the entire Prize. If there are multiple Winners they will split the Prize evenly.

In a “flat” Prize format, each Winner will receive an equal Prize amount (e.g. $100 per Winner). Sponsor will only issue a Prize and any accompanying tax forms to the individual identified in the account information for the winning account. Sponsor will use your account information to contact and verify Winners. Out of date or incorrect account information at the time you enter a Contest may disqualify you from receiving a Prize. Failure to provide valid, working contact information in connection with your account may result in termination of that account and forfeiture of any Prizes awarded. The Prize may be paid out by Sponsor or a designated third party. If by a third party, Winners must also follow any instructions or requirements of such third party to collect their portion of the Prize.

The Prize Winners will receive their Prize as a physical check or electronic transfer. Prizes will be distributed on a weekly basis, and Prize winners may not receive the Prize on the week it is won.  Prizes will expire if they are not claimed within 90 days of winning.

Beating the host or scoring the most points does not guarantee a Prize, as after the Contest, the Savvy team will determine the final outcome of the game and inform the winner(s) of the outcome by email provided by the user during sign-up

Sponsor expressly reserves the right to disqualify any participation that it reasonably believes are generated by an automated means or scripts or that violate any of these Official Rules or Sponsor’s terms of service. Participation generated by script, macro, virtual assistant, AI agent or other automated means are void. Also, cheating, hacking, exploiting bugs or glitches, and generally unfair activities are voidable offenses, as specified in our Terms of Service.

Decisions of the Sponsor are absolute, final and binding with respect to all matters related to the Contest. In no event shall the Sponsor be obligated to award any Prizes other than the Prize specified before the start of the Contest. The Sponsor does not guarantee that the Prize can be made available to any Winner. The Prize is not assignable and not transferable and no substitutions are permitted. In addition, if the Prize is unable to be fulfilled to the Winner due to any applicable law, rule or regulation, or if the Winner cannot claim the Prize for any reason, then Sponsor reserves the right to not award the Prize at all. The Winner shall be responsible and liable for all federal, state and local taxes on the value of the Prize. Winners shall provide Sponsor with accurate information regarding their identity and state or country of residence.

Conduct Rules

Players may, in certain circumstances, communicate with, work with, or otherwise benefit from others with whom they have a preexisting relationship while participating in a Contest. Refer to Terms of Service for further details.

Winner Notification and Information

In order to facilitate the delivery of a Prize, Sponsor may attempt to contact the winner using the contact information provided during account registration. If Sponsor cannot get in contact with the winner using that phone number, the winner may forfeit his/her Prize. If the winner's entry contains any erroneous information, Sponsor will not re-attempt payment that was rejected or returned as undeliverable. The prize will be forfeited if the prize winner's information is erroneous. Certain Contests are only open to residents of specific countries. Any person that enters into a Contest that he/she is not eligible to enter may not win a Prize in that Contest.

Taxes

The value of this prize may constitute taxable income and winners are responsible for reporting and paying all applicable taxes in their jurisdiction of residence (federal, state, and local). You, not Sponsor, are responsible for filing and paying applicable state and federal taxes on any winnings. Sponsor does not provide tax advice, nor should any statements in these Official Rules or on the Contest be construed as tax advice.

Winners may be required to provide upon the request of the Sponsor certain information to facilitate receipt of the prize, including completing and submitting any tax or other forms (including but not limited to Form W-9), necessary for compliance with applicable withholding and reporting requirements. Under applicable law, Sponsor may issue an Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 (or other appropriate form) that reflects the value of the prize. Winners may be required to provide updated address and social security (or other tax identification number) details to Sponsor. These details will be used to allow Sponsor to comply with tax regulations and may be shared with appropriate tax authorities. You must provide accurate and complete information. If you provide any information that is inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Sponsor has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is inaccurate, not current or incomplete, Sponsor may deny you access to Contests, disqualify you from Contests, revoke Prizes, and/or terminate your Play Savvy account in its sole discretion.

Termination

We may terminate your access to all or any part of the Contest at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice, effective immediately.

Binding Arbitration
You and Play Savvy agree that any and all Disputes, except those that are resolved informally or brought in a small claims court, will be arbitrated by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same individual damages and individual relief that a court can. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE OFFICIAL RULES WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST Play Savvy. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced (but in no case will there be a class or representative arbitration).

Pre-Filing Requirement to Attempt to Resolve Disputes

 Before an arbitration is commenced, you or Play Savvy agree to attempt to avoid the costs of formal dispute resolution by giving each other a full and fair opportunity to address and resolve a Dispute informally. Both parties recognize that this is an important requirement, and that breach of this requirement would be a material breach of the Official Rules. To provide this opportunity, before commencing any arbitration or suit, each party agrees to send to the other party a written Notice (“Notice”). Any Notice to Play Savvy should be sent by mail to Play Savvy, Inc., Attn: Arbitration Provision, 9041 Garland Rd #1042. Dallas, TX 75218. Any Notice sent to you will be sent to the address on file for your account. The Notice must: (i) include your name and account username; (ii) provide detailed information sufficient to evaluate the merits of the claiming party’s individualized claim and for the other party to determine if an amicable resolution is possible; and (iii) set forth the specific relief sought, including whatever amount of money is demanded and the means by which the demanding party calculated the claimed damages. Both parties agree that they will attempt to resolve a dispute through an informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice is sent. After that sixty (60) day period and not before, either party may elect, in writing sent to the other party, that it will pursue the matter either through small claims court or arbitration. The party receiving the notice shall then have seven (7) days to respond, including to elect for the case to be heard by a small claims court with jurisdiction. If either party elects small claims court, the dispute will be resolved in that forum and not through arbitration. Each party agrees that state courts in the City and County of Dallas, Texas, or federal court for the Northern District of Texas, referenced below, may enter injunctive relief to enforce the pre-filing requirements of this paragraph, including an injunction to stay an arbitration that has been commenced in violation of this paragraph.

Scope of Arbitration. 

If we are not able to resolve the Dispute by informal negotiation or, as provided below, in a small claims court, all Disputes will be resolved finally and exclusively by binding individual arbitration with a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) administered by the American Arbitration Association (https://www.adr.org) according to this Section and the Consumer Arbitration Rules through the Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission (the “Desk/Documents Only” arbitration) (the “AAA Rules”), including Rule D-3(b), except you and Play Savvy, Inc. will have the right to file early or summary dispositive motions and so long as the claim is arbitrable under the AAA Rules. Except as set forth above, and for disputes subject to jurisdiction in small claims court, the Arbitrator shall be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Official Rules (or any aspect thereof) are enforceable, unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.

Small Claims Court

 Subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, either party may elect to pursue a Dispute in a local small-claims court rather than through arbitration so long as the matter remains in small claims court and proceeds only on an individual basis. If a party has already submitted an arbitration demand to the AAA but before an arbitrator has been selected, the other party can send a written notice to the opposing party that it wants the Dispute decided by a small claims court. After receiving this notice and consistent with Consumer Rule 9, the AAA will administratively close the case.

Arbitration Procedures 

The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, including its procedural provisions, fully applies. So long as it is consistent with the AAA Rules, including Rule D-3(b), the arbitration shall occur through the submission of documents to one arbitrator. To the extent any in-person arbitration hearing is required, the arbitration hearing will take place as close to your hometown as practicable. The Arbitrator’s award will be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Play Savvy values your privacy https://www.playsavvy.live/legal/privacy.html, particularly with respect to your financial transactions and data. Each of the parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration and shall not (without the prior written consent of the other party) disclose to any third party the fact, existence, content, award, or other result of the arbitration, except as may be necessary to enforce, enter, or challenge such award in a court of competent jurisdiction or as otherwise required by applicable law. While an arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief, the Arbitrator may do so only with respect to the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual party’s claim. The Arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon will not have a precedential or collateral estoppel effect.

Arbitration Fees

 In accordance with the AAA Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or us) is responsible for paying the applicable filing fee. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you and Play Savvy also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of the Services.

Opt Out. 

You may reject this provision, in which case only a court may be used to resolve any Dispute. To reject this provision, you must send us an opt-out notice (the “Opt Out”) within thirty (30) days after entering this Contest. The Opt Out must be mailed to Play Savvy, Inc., Attn: Arbitration Provision, 9041 Garland Rd #1042 Dallas, TX 75218 (please note that any correspondence not related to opting out sent to this address will not receive a reply). The notice must include your username and the email address(es) you used to sign up and use the Services. This is the only way of opting out of this provision. Opting out will not affect any other aspect of the Official Rules, Play Savvy Terms, Additional Terms, or the Services, and will have no effect on any other or future agreements you may reach to arbitrate with us.

Court Proceedings

 Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions above, you agree that any judicial proceedings (other than small claims actions as discussed above) will be brought in and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts in the City and County of Dallas, Texas, or federal court for the Northern District of Texas.

General Rules
Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision. Sponsor’s decisions will be final in all matters relating to the Contest, Sponsor reserves the right to restrict or void participation from any IP address if any suspicious activity and/or participation is detected. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to void participation of any Players who Sponsor believes has attempted to tamper with or impair the administration, security, fairness or proper play of the Contest. In the event there is an alleged or actual ambiguity, discrepancy or inconsistency between disclosures or other statements contained in any Contest-related materials and/or these Official Rules (including any alleged discrepancy or inconsistency in these Official Rules), it will be resolved in Sponsor’s sole discretion. Players waive any right to claim ambiguity in the Contest or these Official Rules. If Sponsor determines at any time in its sole discretion that Player is disqualified, ineligible, or in violation of these Official Rules, or engaging in behavior that Sponsor deems obnoxious, inappropriate, threatening, illegal or that is intended to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person, Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to select an alternate Winner. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. If the Contest is not capable of running as planned for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel, modify or suspend the Contest and award the prize from eligible entries received prior to cancellation, modification, or suspension or as otherwise deemed fair and appropriate by Sponsor. Each potential Winner may be required to provide Sponsor with proof that he or she is the authorized account holder. If a dispute cannot be resolved to Sponsor’s satisfaction, the Player and individual(s) may be deemed ineligible in Sponsor’s sole discretion.

CAUTION: ANY ATTEMPT TO DAMAGE ANY ONLINE SERVICE OR WEB SITE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATIONS OF THE CONTEST VIOLATES CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS. IF SUCH AN ATTEMPT IS MADE, SPONSOR MAY SEEK DAMAGES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AND MAY DISQUALIFY ANY PARTICIPANT MAKING SUCH ATTEMPT.
