Sponsor may ask for written proof of the parent or legal guardian’s permission and agreement as a condition of awarding any prize to a person who is under the age of legal majority. Subject to the age limitation provided above, entrants who are under the age of majority in their country, state, province and territory of residence at the date of entry are still eligible to enter the Contest and win a Prize provided that the parent or legal guardian of the entrant accepts the Prize and the terms and conditions hereof for and on behalf of such entrant and completes the required Declaration and Release Form (as further outlined below).
- All applicable federal, provincial, territorial, and local laws and regulations apply. Void where prohibited or restricted by law. Participation consists of entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules, Sponsor and the Contest Administrator (the “Contest Group”) decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. Each entrant (“Entrant”) may be required to furnish proof of identification and other proof of eligibility under these Official Rules.
- Exclusions: Entrants cannot be (a) an employee of the Sponsor, or one of its parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, or related companies and agencies; or (b) an immediate family member (defined as their parents, children, siblings and spouse and their respective spouses, regardless of where they live), or living in the same household of as anyone in category (a), whether or not related to them.
- Sponsor. The company responsible for running the Promotion is Bungie, Inc., located at 550 106th Ave NE, Bellevue, WA 98004. Sponsor’s decisions with regard to the Promotion and these Official Rules are final and binding in all respects. Entrants with questions regarding the Promotion or the Official Rules should contact the Sponsor.
- Promotion Period. The promotion runs from 7/13/2023 through 7/23/2023, US Pacific Time. Sponsor’s computer system shall be the official timekeeper for all matters related to the Promotion.
- How to Enter.
- For purposes of the Promotion the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter the Promotion is the “Entrant”. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned to an email address by an internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses. Potential Winners (as defined in Section 5) may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder as a condition of receiving their respective prizes.
- Entrants will be allowed only one entry per 24 hour period during the Promotion. Attempts to obtain multiple entries within one 24 hour period by the use of multiple email addresses or any other means may disqualify all such entries from that entrant for that period, at the sole discretion of the Sponsor. Entries will not roll-over to the next day, and only entries received during a particular 24-hour period will be eligible to win that specific day’s prize.
- Every qualified entry during the entire campaign period (July 13, 2023 10:00 PT to July 23, 2023 23:59 PT) for any of the daily prizes will qualify as an entry for the Grand Prize. Entrants may have up to seven entries for the grand prize by submitting qualified donations or alternative entries for each daily prize during the campaign, meaning that the probability of an entrant winning the Grand Prize depends on the total number of qualified entries across the campaign period. Participants who miss a daily entry will have one opportunity to submit an additional entry for the Grand Prize only, but in no event will entries in excess of seven increase the participant’s odds of winning the Grand Prize.
- Neither Entrant nor Sponsor can change promotion entries after they have been submitted. It is the Entrant’s responsibility to ensure that they have submitted accurate information. The Sponsor is not responsible for an Entrant’s failure to supply accurate information, which may impact eligibility or (if the Entrant is selected as a Winner) the acceptance or delivery of a prize.
- Donation Method: If you are eligible, you may qualify for an opportunity to win a daily prize by donating a minimum of $1 through the donation portal provided at https://bungiefoundation.donordrive.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=donate.event&eventID=524
- Free Alternative Entry: If you are eligible, you may also qualify for an opportunity to win the daily prize by submitting, to the Sponsor, one of (a) a short statement, maximum 50 words, describing why you support the mission of the Bungie Foundation, or (b) a scan or digital copy your own original 2D art. By submitting an alternative entry, you represents that you are the sole owner and have all rights in the statement or art (“materials”) that you submit to the Sponsor, and you grant to Sponsor a perpetual license to use the materials in any way and to associate the materials with you, including but not limited to the right to republish the materials in connection with the Promotion. Misrepresenting your ownership or rights in the materials may void your eligibility, at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Entries can be sent to charityevents@bungie.com with the subject “Prize Week Entry – [INSERT PRIZE NAME]”.
IMPORTANT: Message and data rates may apply if an Entrant enters the Promotion on their mobile device. Entrants should check their mobile carrier’s pricing plans for details. Mobile entry is not required to enter or win a prize.

- Prize Drawing. Winning entries will be selected at random from all eligible entries collected during each portion of the Promotion Period (the “Drawings”). Each Drawing will take place within 7 days for each prize. Entrants whose entries are selected during the prize drawing will be considered “Potential Winners,” until the completion of winner notification and verification of the entrant’s eligibility and compliance with the Official Rules as described in these Official Rules.
Potential Winners who are residents of Canada may be required to correctly answer, unaided, a time-limited skill-test question posed by the Sponsor in the manner able to determined by the Sponsor in order to be declared a Winner and awarded the applicable Prize. Such question may, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, be administered online, by email or other electronic means, by telephone, or as part of the Potential Winner’s declaration of eligibility. - Odds of Winning. The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received.
- No Substitutions. Prizes are non-transferable and no request for substitution, exchange or cash equivalent will be granted. If it is necessary and unavoidable, the Sponsor may decide to substitute a Prize with an alternative prize of equal or greater value (such as if a prize becomes unavailable).
- Taxes and Costs. The value of any prize awarded to a Winner may result in a requirement to pay tax in the Winner’s country.
Except where prohibited by local law, Winners are solely responsible for any applicable taxes, expenses, costs or fees associated with winning or the prizes they receive. We recommend that you consult with a tax advisor if you have further questions on the tax treatment of a prize you receive.
- Forfeited Prizes. If a prize is forfeited for any reason, the Sponsor may decide to award the relevant prize to an alternate Winner selected from all remaining eligible entries (subject to any written directions given under applicable law or regulation). If, after a good-faith attempt, Sponsor is unable to award a prize to the Potential Winner of such subsequent drawing, the prize may not be awarded.
- Verification. Prize claims are subject to verification. Before releasing each daily prize, the Sponsor or an Independent Contest Administrator will contact all the selected entrants via email within seven (7) days from the draw date. The selected entrant will be required to sign a Declaration and Release Form (the “Release Form”) or, if the selected entrant is under the age of majority in their country, state, province or territory of residence, have his/her parent or legal guardian sign such Release Form on his/her behalf) confirming compliance with the Official Rules, acceptance of the Prize, as awarded, without substitution, and releasing the Sponsor and each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, parents, subsidiaries, affiliated and related companies, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any liability in connection with any Prize or the Contest. Each selected entrant must return a signed Release Form within ten (10) days of receipt, or he/she will be disqualified from receiving the prize, and another may be selected from the remaining eligible entrants until such time as a winner is chosen or there are no more eligible entrants, whichever comes first.

If the Potential Winner is a minor where they live, then their parent or legal guardian may be required to execute and return the declaration. Upon Sponsor’s confirmation of a Potential Winner’s eligibility and compliance with the Official Rules, that person will be verified as a Winner. Prizes will only be awarded to verified Winners. Failure to provide all requested information and documentation within the time period stated in the notification may result in Potential Winner being disqualified.
- Winner Notification If Sponsor is unable to reach a Potential Winner with the contact information provided in the Potential Winner’s entry submission within five working days after the initial notification attempt (or, if later, after one further notification attempt), or if any notification is returned as undeliverable, the Potential Winner may be disqualified.
