By participating in this Contest, you are signifying your agreement that you have read and agree to be legally bound by these Official Rules and Regulations (the “Rules”).
4. HOW TO OBTAIN AN ENTRY:
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. MAKING A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE OR OTHERWISE IMPACT YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING IN THIS CONTEST.
There are several ways to earn entries for the Contest (each an “Entry”). Every time an eligible entrant subscribes to receive marketing emails from the Sponsor during the Contest Period, (i) they will automatically obtain one (1) Entry into the Contest for a chance to win a Prize (as defined below), and (b) if they also complete a short survey from the Sponsor about being a renter during the Contest Period, in addition to subscribing to receive marketing emails from the Sponsor during the Contest Period, they will obtain one (1) additional Entry into the Contest for a chance to win a Prize.
Alternatively, an eligible entrant may earn one (1) Entry into the Contest for a chance to win a Prize (without subscribing to receive marketing emails from the Sponsor during the Contest Period), by submitting a maximum one hundred (100) word statement about how winning a Prize would help them with their monthly expenses, along with their full name, mailing address, email address and phone number to the following mailing address, with sufficient postage: 1 York Street, Suite 1010, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5J 0B6. All mail-in Entries must be post-marked during the Contest Period. An eligible entrant that submits the foregoing statement in accordance with these Rules may also indicate in their statement that they wish to complete the short survey from the Sponsor about being a renter, in which case the Sponsor will provide a link to the survey at the email address included with the statement. If this eligible entrant then completes the survey within the Contest Period, they will obtain one (1) additional Entry into the Contest for a chance to win a Prize.
The Contest Parties and each of their respective agents, employees, directors, officers, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) are not responsible for, and accept no liability whatsoever in relation to, any late, lost, misdirected, delayed, incomplete or incompatible Entries (all of which are void).

Failure to provide such proof to the complete satisfaction of the Sponsor within the timeline specified by the Sponsor may result in disqualification in the sole and absolute discretion of the Sponsor.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each confirmed winner understands and acknowledges that they may not seek reimbursement or pursue any legal or equitable remedy from either the Sponsor or any of the other Released Parties should the Prize fail to be fit for its purpose or is in any way unsatisfactory. For greater certainty and the avoidance of any doubt, by accepting a Prize, each confirmed winner agrees to waive all recourse against the Sponsor and all of the other Released Parties if the Prize or a component thereof does not prove satisfactory, either in whole or in part.
