You are also not eligible to enter, win or be awarded a prize and will be disqualified, if you have been declared a winner of any other De’Longhi sponsored promotion within the last month, including any other daily South Beach Festival Sweepstakes, whether or not you are or have been awarded a prize.

Proof of your submission of an entry will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by us within the entry period and we are not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible or misdirected entries, which will be disqualified. The date and time of our actual receipt of your entry, as recorded by our systems, is the sole and exclusive mechanism by which your entry will be considered received or not received within the entry period.

Your email address and any other personally identifiable information that is submitted by you as part of this Sweepstakes will be used to administer the Sweepstakes, select prize winners and award prizes, but we may also include your email address in our marketing database and send you marketing and promotional emails from time to time. Your email address and all other personally identifiable information we obtain from you in connection with this Sweepstakes will be subject to, used and treated in accordance with our privacy policy accessible at De'Longhi US Privacy Policy and as we repeat again in the Section below entitled Information We Obtain About You, you will always be given the ability to opt out of receiving future unsolicited marketing and promotional emails by using an unsubscribe link at the bottom of any emails we send you.
No other methods of entry are or will be accepted. There is a limit of only one (1) entry per person and if you submit or attempt to submit more than one (1) entry, we have the right to disqualify you and any and all entries you have submitted or have attempted to submit, and you will be ineligible to participate or win a prize. Entries will be deemed made by the identifiable owner of the email, mobile phone or other account applicable to the submission of the entry, at the time the entry is submitted. In the event of a dispute, you may be required to provide proof that you are the owner or authorized holder of the identified account.
PRIZES: Only one (1) Grand Prize, a De’Longhi Rivelia Espresso Machine, will be awarded in this Sweepstakes. The Grand Prize winner will be allowed to select the color of the machine, subject to availability. The approximate retail value of the Grand Prize is one thousand five hundred dollars (US$1,500) and we reserve the right to substitute any prize for a prize award of equal or greater value. Except for our right to substitute a prize of equivalent or greater value, no prizes may be transferred, substituted or exchanged, nor cash equivalent allowed.
WINNER SELECTION & NOTIFICATION: Drawing for the prizes will be conducted by De’Longhi, as the Sponsor, and take place within one week after the entry period ends (the “Sweepstakes Administrator”).
The Sweepstakes Administrator will select the potential Grand Prize winner at random from the eligible entries received during the entry period and attempt to notify the potential Grand Prize winner using the email address provided in connection with the individual’s entry. If the initially selected potential Grand Prize winner cannot be notified within 5 days after the drawing or receives the notice but fails to respond to the Sweepstakes Administrator or provide the information and documentation required by these Official Rules within 10 days of being notified, or in the event of non-compliance with any of these Official Rules at any time, that potential Grand Prize winner will forfeit receiving the Grand Prize, and an alternate potential Grand Prize winner will be selected at random from the remaining eligible entries received. Being declared the Grand Prize winner and being awarded the Grand Prize is and remains contingent upon compliance with and fulfilling all Sweepstakes rules and requirements and we may disqualify you if you fail to do so. In order to claim the Grand Prize, the potential Grand Prize winner will be asked to sign and return an Affidavit of Eligibility & Liability Release Form (including social security or taxpayer identification number). In addition, within 10 days after being notified of being selected as the potential Grand Prize winner, you will be required to sign and return an Affidavit of Eligibility & Liability Release Form to us and unless prohibited by law or regulation, you will also be asked to sign and return a Publicity Release.
If the potential Grand Prize winner returns the required documentation properly completed and signed and has complied with the Official Rules, as verified by the Sweepstakes Administrator, the potential Grand Prize winner will be declared a winner and the Grand Prize awarded. If a potential Grand Prize winner fails to properly complete, sign and return the required documentation within the required time period or fails to comply with these Official Rules in any respect, that person will be disqualified and declared ineligible and the Sweepstakes Administrator will select and contact the next alternate potential Grand Prize winner as described above.
All taxes and/or other costs and expenses associated with the acceptance, receipt and use of all or any portion of the Grand Prize that is not expressly specified in these Official Rules are the sole responsibility of the winner. Although we may not be required to issue an IRS Form 1099-MISC or report the value of the Grand Prize the Grand Prize winner receives to the IRS, you may still be required to report the fair market value of the prize you received, inclusive of sales or other transaction taxes that would otherwise apply, on your income tax forms. We cannot be, are not and will not be responsible if the winner of the Grand Prize is unable to accept or use all or any portion of the prize, due to any failure to qualify or comply with these Official Rules or restrictions imposed by law, regulation or other rules or requirements that apply to the Grand Prize winner or his or her acceptance, receipt or use of any prize award. If a potential Grand Prize winner fails to comply with any applicable restrictions, requirements or rules, or fails to comply with these Official Rules in any way, the Grand Prize winner may be disqualified and will forfeit the Grand Prize award. The decisions of the Sponsor in all respects applicable to the Sweepstakes, including, without limitation, eligibility of entrants, entries, selection of the potential Grand Prize winner, compliance with these Official Rules and award of the Grand Prizes, are and will be final and binding in all respects.
