1. PROMOTION PERIOD:
The period for entering the ‘Customized Kicks’ Sweepstakes (the “Promotion”) begins when the Promotion announcement has been distributed by Sponsor (via email and Sponsor’s mobile app) on January 27, 2021 and ends at 11:59:59 pm EST on February 18, 2021 (the “Promotion Period”). Sponsor’s computer is the official clock for the Promotion. Any Entry received before or after the Promotion Period will be void (except as otherwise provided in these Official Rules).
2. ELIGIBILITY:
To be eligible to enter or win, you must be a legal resident of the United States and at least 13 years or older at the time of entry and be an A-List STATUS member (“Entrant”).

Sponsor reserves the right to verify eligibility regarding the qualifications of Entrants and the Winners.
3. HOW TO ENTER:
Any “Entry”, as described below, not in compliance with these Official Rules will be disqualified. Any Entry that is submitted without following the entry requirements will not be considered for the Prize. For purposes of these Official Rules, ‘Sophia Dawg Art’ may be referred to as “Promotion Artist”.

Follow the applicable instructions to redeem 10,000 Points for one (1) entry into the ‘Customized Kicks’ Sweepstakes. Once your Points are redeemed for an entry into this Promotion, the Points will automatically be deducted from your account.
Email Entry: You may also enter the Promotion by emailing the following information to loyalty@finishline.com: your name, complete mailing address, STATUS account number, email address, phone number and the name of the Promotion Artist for which you are submitting an Entry (‘Sophia Dawg Art’), with the email subject line of “Entry for ‘Customized Kicks Sweepstakes’ Sweepstakes”. Email entries must be timestamped by 11:59:59 pm EST on February 18, 2021 to be entered the Promotion. Incomplete or non-legible mail-in entries will not be accepted.

Limits: There is a limit of five (5) Entries per Entrant per Promotion Artist for the Promotion Period regardless of the method of entry (by way of example, an Entrant can submit up to five (5) Entries for a chance to win the Sophia Dawg Art Prize). All Entries become the property of Sponsor. By entering, you agree to waive any rights you may have to the Entry submitted. Multiple Entrants are not permitted to share the same STATUS account or email address. Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different STATUS accounts, email addresses, identities, registrations and logins or any other methods will void that Entrant’s Entry and that Entrant may be disqualified.
Technical Issues: Entrant acknowledges that Sponsor cannot control certain factors, including, without limitation, errors, cancellation of accounts or technical malfunctions that may affect any Entrant’s ability to enter, win, view, be advised of, be eligible for or be properly considered in the Promotion.
Mobile Devices Used for Entry: If Entrant opts to participate in this Promotion via a wireless mobile device, entry must be via Entrant’s own wireless mobile device (which may only be available via participating wireless carriers and is not required to enter). Standard text messaging rates or data charges may apply for each text message or data sent or received from Entrant’s handset according to the terms and conditions of Entrant’s service agreement with Entrant’s wireless carrier. Other charges may apply (such as normal airtime, data charges and carrier charges) and may appear on Entrant’s mobile phone bill or be deducted from Entrant’s prepaid account balance. Wireless carriers’ rate plans or data plans may vary, and Entrant should contact Entrant’s wireless carrier for more information on messaging rate plans and charges relating to Entrant’s participation in this Promotion. Participation in this Promotion by mobile phone means that Entrant understands that Entrant may receive additional data from Sponsor relating to this Promotion, including notifications to Entrant if Entrant is a potential winner in this Promotion, which will be subject to the charges pursuant to Entrant’s carrier’s rate plan. Use of applicable website or application platform may not be available from all mobile phone service carriers and handset models. Cell phone/internet service may not be available in all areas. Entrant should check Entrant’s phone’s capabilities for specific instructions.
Authorized Account Holder: In case of dispute as to the identity of any Entrant, an Entry will be deemed made by the Authorized Account Holder of the STATUS and/or email account by which the Entry was submitted, where applicable. “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person who is assigned to the STATUS and/or email account in question. Any Entrant may be requested to provide Sponsor with proof that such Entrant is the Authorized Account Holder of the STATUS and/or email account associated with the Entry. Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations, logins, or any other methods will void that Entrant’s entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. Sponsor has the sole discretion to determine whether an Entry is eligible. Each potential Winner may be required to show proof of being an Authorized Account Holder.
Entrant Data and Privacy: Submission of the Entry, including any prize notification documents (“Entrant Data”), constitutes your consent for Sponsor to obtain, use, and transfer your name, address, and other details for Promotion administration purposes.

5. ENTRY DISQUALIFICATION AND PROMOTION CHANGES:
Incomplete and unintelligible Entries, and Entries that do not fully comply with all of the requirements set forth in these Official Rules including without limitation the Content Guidelines, may be disqualified.
Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (a) change the Promotion at any time without liability to Entrants or third parties, including if and when Sponsor becomes aware of any circumstances or occurrence which would materially affect the Promotion’s administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct; (b) disqualify any Entrant or Winner whose conduct is contrary to the spirit and intention of the Promotion and these Official Rules or for any other reason Sponsor deems appropriate and to declare as void any applicable Entry or Entries; or (c) modify, cancel or suspend the Promotion or any part of it at any stage for any reason, including circumstances beyond Sponsor’s reasonable control.
Without limiting the foregoing, if the Sponsor elects to modify, cancel or suspend the Promotion for reasons which may include, without limitation, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures or any other causes which may affect or corrupt the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the Promotion, then Sponsor reserves the right to void any and all Entries and select the Winner from among all eligible, non-suspect Entries received up to the time of modification, cancellation or suspension of the Promotion.
Without limiting the foregoing, Sponsor reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, disqualify any Entrant it finds to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Promotion. Sponsor may prohibit an Entrant from participating in the Promotion or winning a Prize if, in its sole discretion, it determines that said Entrant is attempting to undermine the legitimate operation of the Promotion by cheating, hacking or engaging in other unfair playing practices (including by the use of automated quick entry programs) or intending to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other Entrants or Sponsor agents or representatives. By way of example, any attempt by an Entrant to obtain more than the permitted number of Entries by using multiple or different user accounts or methods of entries will void all of that Entrant’s Entries and that Entrant may be disqualified.
6. GENERAL:
The Promotion is subject to all federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations. By participating in the Promotion, an Entrant acknowledges compliance with these Official Rules and all decisions of Sponsor, which are final in all matters relating to the Promotion. Any waiver of any obligation hereunder by Sponsor does not constitute a general waiver of any obligation to Entrants. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
7. DISCLAIMERS:
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: Sponsor is not responsible for (a) typographical or other errors in the offer or administration of the Promotion, including but not limited to errors in advertising, these Official Rules, the selection and announcements of the Winner or the distribution of any Prize; (b) Entries not received within the Promotion Period or Entries that are otherwise lost, late, damaged, delayed or incomplete; (c) any interrupted or unavailable network, server or other connections, miscommunications, failed telephone, computer hardware, software and other technical failures of any kind, including injury or damage to any person’s computer relating to or resulting from participating in the Promotion or claiming the Prize; (d) unauthorized intervention, delayed, jumbled or garbled computer transmissions or other errors of any kind, whether human, mechanical or electronic, including without limitation, the incorrect or inaccurate capture of Entry information online whether caused by Internet users or any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the Promotion, regardless of cause that may limit a person’s ability to participate in the Promotion or claim the Prize.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: WITH RESPECT TO A PRIZE, SPONSOR MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS AND GRANTS NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, AND SPONSOR SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT.
8. RELEASE:
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Entrants waive any and all claims of liability against Sponsor and its affiliates, parents and subsidiaries and its and their respective owners, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) arising from any claims, damages, losses, expenses and liability of any kind (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or otherwise related to the Promotion, including without limitation any Losses arising from or otherwise related to an Entrant’s participation in the Promotion or from a Winner’s acceptance or use of any Prize awarded. The foregoing release shall not apply to any Losses arising from Sponsor’s own negligence or more culpable conduct or omissions.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY:
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will any of the Released Parties be responsible or liable for any damages or losses of any kind, including direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Promotion or any Prize, including without limitation any Losses arising from or otherwise related to an Entrant’s participation in the Promotion or from a Winner’s acceptance or use of any Prize awarded. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitations or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to an Entrant.
10. DISPUTES; GOVERNING LAW:
