All recording, transportation, accommodation, personal costs and/or any other costs, fees and/or other expenses that are incurred to participate in this Contest and/or to redeem a prize is the sole responsibility of each respective entrant/winner.
By entering the Contest and entering the information/contact details required, you agree that Intel may use the information/contact details that you provide for purposes of administering the Contest and to contact the prize winners, as well as other purposes outlined in the Privacy section below.
To enter the Contest, eligible individuals must visit
http://businessyear.intel.com and follow the prompts. As part of the entry process, individuals will be required to undergo a diagnosis test to find out what year they're ‘doing business in' based on the technology they currently use. Individuals must have javascript enabled in their browser in order to complete the diagnosis process and enter the Contest. This information will be served up as a light-hearted infographic. Upon perfoming the diagnosis, individuals will need to submit their infographic by following the prompts on screen to fully fill out and submit the entry form. Once an individual submits their infographic and entry form, a unique page will be created and published containing their infographic and their selected details ("Page") and the individual will be issued with a unique URL to access the Page ("Unique Page URL"). To attract votes (as part of the Voting Component), individuals must ‘share' their Unique Page URL via Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn (by following the prompts on screen) and/or by copying and then pasting the Unique Page URL into their personal email and sending the Unique Page URL to individuals that they would like to invite to vote for their Page. Depending on the ‘share' method chosen, a promotional message containing the Unique Page URL will be published on the entrant's Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn profile/feed inviting their friends/followers/connections to vote for their Page. If an individual sends their Unique Page URL via email, they will be able to tailor their email as they wish (as the email will simply need to be sent in accordance with the standard instructions of their email provider), however they must ensure that they include the Unique Page URL into the email and direct individuals to visit it. Each Page can only be accessed via the Unique Page URL.
Intel is not a sponsor of or affiliated with any of the individuals, entities or brands listed as part of the historical chronology shown in the infographics, unless indicated. Any third party trademarks shown in infographics are the property of their respective owners. The Contest and in particular the infographic activity is intended to be light hearted and entertaining. We hope that you will have fun with the activity. Intel does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the information, text, graphics, links or other items ("Content") presented by the activity, and makes no representation whatsoever about the suitability of the Content for any purpose. You should not place any reliance on the completeness, accuracy or existence of any Content, and you should obtain your own independent advice on your computer system. To the extent permitted by law, Intel disclaims all warranties and conditions with regard to the Content, including all warranties and conditions of merchantability, whether express, implied or statutory, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.
All individuals who submit the entry form will be eligible to participate in the Voting Component (regardless of whether they are entering on their own behalf or on behalf of an Eligible Business). In addition, if an individual has submitted the entry form on behalf of an Eligible Business, the Eligible Business will also receive an entry into the Draw Component. For the sake of clarity, entrants who are not entering on behalf of an Eligible Business or do not provide the required Eligible Business's details will not receive an entry into the Draw Component. Individuals must ensure that they have permission of the owner of the Eligible Business to enter the Eligible Business into this Contest.
Individuals can enter multiple times (on their own behalf or an behalf of an Eligible Business), however, they will be issued with a separate Page and Unique Page URL each time they enter and any votes they receive for their separate Pages will not be combined.
Voting Component
The Voting Component will be conducted across five (5) weeks ("Weekly Periods"). Each published Page will have a voting feature, whereby individuals will be able to submit a vote for the Page of the entrant whose Unique Page URL they followed during a Weekly Period. The two (2) entrants whose Pages receive the most valid votes in each Weekly Period will each win the prize outlined in the table below corresponding to that Weekly Period ("Weekly Prize"). In the event of a tie for any Weekly Prize between multiple entrants who receive the same highest number of votes (other than between the first and the second placed entrants, excluding Week 5), each tied entrant will need to provide a response to Intel as to why they deserve to win the relevant Weekly Prize. Intel will then rank the entrants based on how good their response is (based on originality and creativity) in order to award the relevant Weekly Prize(s). No chance will be involved in how the winners in the Voting Component are determined.
Entries and votes during each Weekly Period will open at 12:00am AEST and close at 11:59pm AEST on the dates outlined in the table below, with the exception of the first Weekly Period where entries will open at 2:00pm AEST. At the start of each Weekly Period, the votes received for each published Page will be reset to zero and each Page will be put up for voting in each Weekly Period occurring after the Page is first published (with the exception of any Page that belongs to a winner of a Weekly Prize in an earlier Weekly Period). Each entrant can win a maximum of one (1) Weekly Prize. Votes are limited to one (1) vote per person. No prizes will be awarded for the act of voting in this Contest. Total prize pool value of the Voting Component is $10,390.
