3. Eligibility, age, location, exclusions, and employee or contractor restrictions.
4. Start and end date, time, and time zone.
5. Exact entry method and entry limits.
6. Alternative free method of entry if purchase or paid membership is involved.
7. Prize description, approximate retail value, number of prizes, and restrictions.
8. Random drawing or judging method and odds or judging criteria.
9. Winner notification, verification, affidavit, release, tax form, and response deadline.
10. Publicity permission subject to law.
11. Taxes and expenses responsibility.
12. Release and limitation language permitted by law.
13. Platform release and statement that the promotion is not sponsored by the social platform unless true.
14. Privacy treatment of entries.
