CONTEST RULES

• Download the free FanLabel app and create a free FanLabel account, referred to in the app as a “record label” (“Account”).
• Visit the “Weekly Event” card on the homepage of the Play Tab and participate in one or more song selection challenges (each, a “Challenge”) during the Applicable Contest (defined in the Contest Rules). At least three types of Challenges are available as follows:
  • “Best-of-5” Challenges: Listen to a group of five (5) song samples and select which one (1) you determine, using your judgment and knowledge of music, streamed the most in the U.S. in the prior week.
  • “Pick-A-Hit” Challenges: Listen to a group of five (5) song samples and select which one (1) you determine, using your judgment and knowledge of music, will stream the most in the U.S. in the current week.
  • “Quick-Pick” Challenges: Listen to two (2) song clips and select which one (1) you determine, using your judgment and knowledge of music, streamed the most in the U.S. in the prior week.
  • Trivia: Listen to the songs presented and select which one (1) you determine, using your judgment and knowledge of music, correctly answers the trivia question.

A “week” is defined as a calendar week beginning on Monday at 5:00:00 a.m. ET and ending the following Monday at 04:59:59 a.m. ET. Any additional methods to participate in a particular Contest, if available, will be described in the Play Tab for that Contest.

Creating an Account and participating in Challenges are totally free. Virtual royalty points (“Royalty Points”) awarded as part of a Challenge in a Contest are used to calculate winners per the Winner Determination & Verification rule below. The number of available Royalty Points for any given Challenge will be stated next to the listing of the Challenge under the “Weekly Event” card on the Play Tab. Royalty Points have no cash value outside of the virtual FanLabel Marketplace. Royalty Points cannot be exchanged or redeemed for cash inside or outside of FanLabel. More information on Royalty Points can be found at https://fanlabel.com/how-to-play. Users participating under the “Weekly Event” card or under the “For You” card can purchase additional Royalty Points as in-app-purchases, the values of which are subject to change without notification (“IAP”) (e.g., $0.99 in exchange for 1,000 Royalty Points; $4.99 in exchange for 5,100 Royalty Points; $9.99 in exchange for 10,300 Royalty Points; and $49.99 in exchange for 52,000 Royalty Points). You agree that you are prohibited from selling or transferring your Account or Royalty Points. Purchasing Royalty Points through IAP does not impact the Leaderboard (defined below) or change a player’s ability to win a Contest or, for users playing under the “For You” card, purchasing IAP does not help to level up. Purchasing Royalty Points only increases a player’s spending power in the virtual FanLabel Marketplace. For clarity, the Contest leaderboard (“Leaderboard”) shows the non-official results of participants’ performance based on Royalty Points awarded in Challenges for that Contest. The Leaderboard for each Contest will be available on the Leaderboard tab (“Leaderboard Tab”). The results shown on the Leaderboard are for general information only. The actual results for any Challenge and/or winners in any Contest are determined by Sponsor based on Sponsor’s confirmation of the results. Limit one (1) Account per person.  Eligibility and participation are subject to validation and verification by judges, whose decisions are final and binding in all respects. By participating in any Contest, you unconditionally accept and agree to comply with and abide by these Official Rules, the additional details on the Play Tab, Leaderboard, or under the Contest Rules at https://fanlabel.com/contests for the Applicable Contest, and all decisions of the judges. Any attempt to participate in any Contest with multiple identities, email addresses, accounts, or by any other means including, but not limited to, colluding with another person may result in disqualification from a Contest, permanent disqualification from all Contests, and/or being permanently banned from FanLabel. Use of any macro, bot, script or other automated means to participate is prohibited, as is reverse engineering or otherwise exploiting FanLabel or its software. In case of any dispute regarding the identity of any participant, the participant will be deemed the person who is the authorized account holder of the email account associated with the Account used to participate in the Contest. An “authorized account holder” is defined as the natural person to whom the email address is assigned by an internet service provider, online service provider, or other organization that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.

(a) Contest Winners: At the end of each Contest Period, potential winner(s) for the Contest will be determined based upon the skill of the player(s) in exercising their knowledge and judgment about popular music as demonstrated by their performance in Challenges.

Unless otherwise specified for a particular Contest, winners will be determined based on the highest Royalty Points earned during the Contest Period based on total score for the available Challenges during the Contest Period, specifically excluding any purchased Royalty Points (“Winner”). Earning Royalty Points is based on the skill of the participants in providing correct answers and/or predictions based on musical and market knowledge and expertise.   While the available Royalty Points are weighted such that successful performance in the Best-of-5 and Trivia Challenges in any Contest Period generally will be sufficient to determine a winner, participation in skill-based Pick-a-Hit and/or Quick-Pick Challenges during the same period may also contribute to the outcome, particularly in the unlikely event of a tie from the Best-of-5 Challenges. In the event of a tie, the person with the fewest tries to reach the tied score will be deemed the Winner. In the extremely unlikely event of a further tie, the user who achieved the total tied score earliest will be deemed the Winner.

(b) Number of Winners/Prizes: See the “Weekly Event” card on the Play Tab, Leaderboard, or Contest Rules at https://fanlabel.com/contests for details on the number and description of prizes available in any particular Contest.

(c) Notification:  Winners will be notified that they are the Winner within approximately one (1) day after the end of the applicable Contest Period via the app or using contact information associated with the winning Account (“Notification”). To qualify to receive the prize, each Winner must respond to the initial Notification within 72 hours from the time that FanLabel sends the Notification, and satisfactorily follow any prize claim instructions including by filling out the Prize Claim Documents (defined below) (“Qualified Winner”). Winners who, in Judges’ sole discretion, fail to timely respond to the Notification or satisfy any Prize Claim Documents instructions, fail to qualify for, and lose their ability to receive, the prize. Failure to become a Qualified Winner may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate winner.

 WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION. JUDGES’ DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE ADMINISTRATION, OPERATION, SELECTION OF THE WINNERS, AND OTHER MATTERS RELATED TO EACH CONTEST.

To be a Qualified Winner, each Winner may be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and a Publicity Release (where legal) (“Prize Claim Documents”) by the date specified by Sponsor, or an alternate potential winner may be selected. The Winner may not become a Qualified Winner and the prize may be awarded to an alternate winner if the Winner: (a) cannot be reached for whatever reason after a reasonable effort has been exerted or the Notification or Prize Claim Documents are returned as undeliverable; (b) declines or cannot accept, receive or use the prize for any reason; (c) fails to comply with the above or within any of the aforesaid time periods; (d) is found to be ineligible to enter the Contest or any Challenge, or to receive the prize; (e) cannot or does not comply with the Official Rules; or (f) fails to fulfill the Prize Claim Documents-related obligations.

Meet-and-Greet or Travel Prize Details.   For any prize offering an opportunity to meet a celebrity, attend a special event, or participate in any similar activity, the following general terms will apply unless otherwise specified on the Play Tab, Leaderboard, or https://fanlabel.com/contests for that particular Contest:   Prize consists of:  round-trip coach class air transportation between major airport near a winner’s primary residence as determined by Sponsor, and the destination city; hotel accommodation for the specified number of nights in standard accommodations, double-occupancy, as selected by Sponsor; plus the activity/event/experience specified on the Play Tab, Leaderboard, or Contest Rules at https://fanlabel.com/contests. If a Qualified Winner cannot attend any event on the date(s) specified in the prize description (or as otherwise specified by Sponsor), prize will be forfeited and may be awarded to an alternate winner, time permitting.  Actual value may vary depending on departure city and destination cities, dates of travel, and fluctuations in airfares.  If a Qualified Winner lives within 200 miles of the destination city ground transportation may be provided in lieu of air travel.  Any difference between actual value and advertised value will not be awarded.  Each Qualified Winner is solely responsible for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes and all additional meals, beverages, transportation or other expenses or costs relating to the prize not expressly set forth above.  Major credit card will be required at hotel check-in to cover any incidental expenses.  Each Qualified Winner and travel companion must have all necessary photo ID, passports, or other documents required for air travel, and must travel on the same itinerary. Each Qualified Winner’s travel companion, if any, may be required to sign a Liability/Publicity Release (where legal) prior to ticketing.  Any Qualified Winner or other person taking part in the trip who is a minor under the laws of his/her place of residence must be accompanied by parent or legal guardian who also must execute all documents, including any Prize Claim Documents, on behalf of the minor.  All dates are subject to change.  No responsibility is assumed for cancellation of any events or unavailability of a celebrity or other circumstances beyond sponsor’s control; in the event of such cancellation or unavailability after travel has been booked, the remainder of the trip will be awarded as the complete prize.

General Prize Conditions:  Prizes are non-transferable and no cash equivalent or substitution is offered, except at the sole discretion of the Sponsor. Sponsor may substitute a prize of comparable value if any advertised prize becomes unavailable. Allow 4-6 weeks after validation for delivery or arrangement for delivery of prize. Each Qualified Winner is responsible for all federal, state, and/or local taxes imposed as a result of acceptance of the prize and for all costs and expenses not identified above. If a Qualified Winner is not of legal age of majority in his or her state of residence, at Sponsor’s option, the prize either may be awarded in the name of parent or legal guardian of such Qualified Winner, or parent or legal guardian of such Qualified Winner may be required to ratify and sign all Prize Claim Documents.

How It Works

• Create a League: A League “administrator” will create a League by vising the “Leagues” card on the homepage of the Play Tab. From the League menu, the administrator will then click “Create” to create a private League. The administrator can create the League by entering the League name, description, and prize, and setting the date that the League starts and participants can begin competing to earn Royalties.
• Sharing a League: After the administrator creates the League, FanLabel automatically generates a unique and private code for access to that League. The League administrator, or anyone with access to that code, can invite others to participate in the League by sharing the code from the League menu, or copying and sending the code to any desired participants.
• Joining a League: Users can join a private League by entering the code in the space accessible in the “Join League” button on the League menu found on the Leagues card on the homepage of the Play Tab. After entering the code, the League will welcome the participant who can then access the League menu for all details related to the League.
• Private Leaderboard: Creating a League creates a private Leaderboard, visible only to participants of that League. The League’s Leaderboard will be accessible from the League menu. Users can also view a League specific Leaderboard under the “Leaderboard Tab” under the “Weekly Event” card on the homepage.
• Length of League: Each League takes place over a “Season”, or 4 weeks from the date that the League starts. Throughout the season, League participants can check their rankings on the League homepage. After the Season ends, the administrator has the option to re-start the League for another Season of competition between the same Users without having to re-invite each of the Users.
• Competing in a League: Users compete in the League by playing the Challenges curated under the “Weekly Event” card on the Play Tab. Users competing in a League are placed on both the active FanLabel-wide “Weekly Event” Tournament Leaderboard, in addition to the League’s private Leaderboard. Users can compete in more than one League at the same time.
• Prizes: To compete in a League, Users must play the Challenges curated under the “Weekly Event” card on the Play Tab, and are therefore automatically enrolled on the Leaderboard for, and can win the prize associated with, the Applicable Contest during the Applicable Dates found at https://fanlabel.com/contests. Although users who compete in a League can, in addition to topping the League Leaderboard, top the Applicable Contest’s Leaderboard and win the prize associated with the Applicable Contest during the Applicable Dates, FanLabel neither offers, accepts, nor takes responsibility for any prizes or anything else of value in connection with any League. Notwithstanding, Users who top the League Leaderboard at the end of a Season will receive from FanLabel a virtual trophy commemorating that User’s success. Virtual trophies can be found under the “Award Tab” on a User’s Account, or profile.
• Gambling Prohibition: Use of Leagues is strictly for entertainment purposes and may not be used in connection with any form of gambling.
• Conduct Inconsistent with these Official Rules or FanLabel’s Terms of Use: League participants, including administrators, are prohibited from, among other things, using names, artwork, or custom curated music for any League that is, in FanLabel’s sole and unfettered discretion, inappropriate or obscene, or violative of or inconsistent in any way with the Official Rules or Terms of Use. Consistent with the Official Rules and Terms of Use which apply to these League rules, and as more fully set forth therein, FanLabel reserves the right to remove any Leagues or ban any Users who violate this provision, or act inconsistently with the Official Rules or Terms of Use in relation to any use of the App, including in any League or League play.

Sponsor reserves the right to: (i) permanently disqualify from any promotion it sponsors any person it believes has intentionally violated these Official Rules; (ii) permanently disqualify and/or ban from future use of FanLabel any person it believes has intentionally violated these Official Rules or the spirit of these Official Rules; and (iii) modify, extend, suspend, or terminate any Contest, in whole or in part, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that such Contest is technically impaired or corrupted or that fraud or technical problems, failures or malfunctions, or other unintended circumstances have impaired the integrity, administration, security, proper play, and/or feasibility of such Contest as contemplated herein. If a Contest is terminated before the designated end date, Sponsor will (if possible) select Winner(s) from among all eligible, non-suspect Accounts unaffected by the problem. Participation in the Contest constitutes consent to the use of any Winner’s name, voice, picture, and/or likeness, in any and all media without restriction of any kind whatsoever, without compensation for promotion purposes to the extent allowed by law.

Sponsor may conduct a background check to confirm any Winner’s eligibility to become a Qualified Winner and compliance with these rules. By participating, you agree to cooperate reasonably with any such background check. Failure to cooperate may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate winner. If any prize includes participation in any public event(s) or publicity, or if Sponsor intends to publicize Winner(s) in any way, and if a background check reveals that a Winner (or guest) has engaged in conduct that could damage the reputation or business on any sponsor, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, the Winner may be disqualified from becoming a Qualified Winner and the prize may be awarded to an alternate winner, time permitting.
