OFFICIAL IOGEAR CONTEST RULES

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE CHANCES OF WINNING.

All winners must be 18 years of age or older and a resident of the United States, unless otherwise stated and/or posted.

1. Entering Contests and Choosing and Contacting Winners

Winners of Facebook based contests will be chosen at random from all Facebook fan entries received that comply with the rules outlined in the contest announcement(s).

Entrants must become a Facebook fan or be an existing Facebook fan and include all other specific entry information that is required in the contest announcement on the IOGEAR Facebook fan page.

IOGEAR is not responsible for errors or omissions attributable to the Facebook website regardless of the reason.

Winners will be contacted through Facebook. The person who receives and replies to the winner announcement email will be considered the winner unless he/she identifies another person as the winner in his/her email reply. IOGEAR will mail the contest prize to the address supplied by the winner.

Only one entry per Facebook profile is allowed unless multiple entries are permitted in the individual contest posting. Unless otherwise specified in an individual contest posting, no person may enter any contest more than once using multiple Facebook profiles.

Before receiving the prize, the winner must send a reply to IOGEAR from the Face book profile he/she used to enter the contest within 30 days of being notified of winning the contest. If the winner fails to respond to the winner announcement Facebook message or sends his/her reply from a Facebook profile other than the one from which the original contest entry was sent, he/she forfeits the prize. There is no guarantee that IOGEAR will award the prize to another entrant if it is forfeited by the chosen winner.
