GENERIC CONTEST RULES AND REGULATIONS

These Generic Contest Rules apply to all contests operated by The Master Group, including online competitions on master.ca and where you can enter or participate in a Master Group contest or giveaway via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or any other third-party service, application or website (a "Third Party Service"), except where there are specific rules for a particular contest (a "Master Group Contest").
To be eligible to win a participant must

• Be a legal resident of Canada
• Have reached the age of majority in his or her province or territory of residence at the time of entry

No purchase is necessary. The Master Group employees, and any other representatives involved in any part of the administration and execution of this contest, or a member of the respective immediate families of such employees are not eligible to participate in the contest.
The selected participant for the prize will be notified by email or phone (whichever is available), prior to being declared a winner, and will be required to correctly answer, unaided and without mechanical or electronic assistance, a time-limited, mathematical skill-testing question, to be administered by email.
If the selected participant is unable to correctly answer the skill-testing question, cannot be reached by email or telephone within thirty (30) days of the draw, or otherwise does not meet all contest conditions, his or her prize will be forfeited and another entrant will be randomly drawn from the remaining eligible entries.
Any costs or expenses incurred by the winners in claiming or using their prizes are the responsibility of the winners.
The prize is non-transferable and no cash alternatives will be provided. The Master Group reserves the right to substitute the prize described above with prizes of equal or greater value.
By entering, all participants agree to abide by the generic rules and regulations and decisions of the contest organizers which are final. All entries become the property of The Master Group and will not be returned.
