Circuit of The Americas (COTA) has taken enhanced health and safety measures – for you, drivers, crew, vendors, employees and other guests. An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present, including COTA and the event for which you are purchasing admission. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. People who show no symptoms may spread COVID-19 if they are infected and therefore any event where people are present may pose heightened risk of contracting COVID-19. If you are considered a high-risk person as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), you may be especially vulnerable to COVID-19. You should evaluate your own risk in determining whether to attend any public event including the event at COTA for which you are purchasing admission.

As a condition of admission to this event at COTA you will be required to abide by all current facility rules, posted instructions, and protocols while on premises or risk ejection, including, but not limited to the following, which may be periodically revised in accordance with public health guidance or requirements, or other guidance or requirements:

Guests are encouraged (and may be required) to wear a cloth face covering (all guests who are 3 years or older).
Guests may be required to submit to a non-contact temperature check prior to entry.
Guests may be presented with a brief questionnaire prior to entry to confirm that they are not currently experiencing COVID-19-like symptoms and/or have not been recently exposed to the virus which causes COVID-19.
Guests must maintain a distance of at least 6 feet between their travel party and others.
Guests are reminded to wash their hands frequently with soap and water.
For guests who may need an accommodation in order to comply with any facility rules and/or protocols, please contact our guest services team for further information.
In addition, to further protect the health and safety of our guests and employees, you will not be admitted to COTA and you should stay home if within past fourteen (14) days you have:

Tested positive or have been deemed presumptively positive with COVID-19;
Sought testing to determine whether you might have COVID-19 due to contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19, and have not yet received the results;
Been informed that you may have been exposed to Coronavirus or learned that you have been in the immediate vicinity of a person now known to have been carrying the Coronavirus; or
Experienced any of the following symptoms commonly associated with COVID-19, including cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, OR two or more of any of the following: fever, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell.

TICKET GIVEAWAYS (INSTAGRAM, WEBSITE, OR IN-PERSON)

USE OF THIS TICKET CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF ITS TERMS.

From time to time, Circuit of the Americas LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “COTA” or “Sponsor”) may sponsor contests, giveaways, and sweepstakes (each a “Promotion”) on Instagram, on the website circuitoftheamericas.com (the “Website”), or at its physical location at 9201 Circuit of the Americas Blvd, Austin, TX 78617 (the “Facility” and together with Instagram and the Website, the “Forums”). These General Rules shall govern and control your participation in these Promotions. The starting date and time for any such Promotion and the details to enter will be announced on one of COTA’s Instagram feeds, namely @COTA_official, on its Website, or on promotional materials distributed at the Facility. Any Promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with, Instagram or any other forum where the Promotion is housed. To enter a Promotion, respond to COTA’s Promotion offer on the Forums (e.g., by clicking on the promotion link and completing the entry form) and follow all other details to enter. Entries submitted in compliance with the foregoing and all other terms in these General Rules are hereafter “Entries” or, individually, an “Entry.”

PROMOTION LIMITS: COTA may offer similar Promotions from time to time. Unless specified otherwise, only one entry per person, and, if applicable, you may only use one Instagram account or email address to participate. Each offer is separate. COTA does not accept entries for its Instagram or Website Promotions by phone, fax, courier, mail or email.

Anyone in COTA’s sole discretion that is found to (a) be using multiple Instagram accounts to participate or (b) is participating in an attempt to hijack a Promotion (for example, participating in collaboration with other users) will be ineligible, and his/her Entries will be invalidated.

REQUIRED REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES: You must meet all of the following as applicable to your Entry. Failure to do so may result in your disqualification. By entering, you represent and warrant with regard to your Entry:

As applicable, your Entry must be your own original work or you must have all the rights necessary to post or repost the content. Each Entry must not contain any material that would violate or infringe upon the rights of any person or entity, including without limitation copyrights, trademarks, or rights of privacy or publicity, or that is defamatory, threatening, indecent, obscene or offensive, or that is unlawful, in violation of or contrary to any applicable laws or regulations, or which requires a license from any third party.

You have the express written consent of any identifiable persons appearing or referenced in your Entry or Entries to their Persona (as defined below) being used in the ways set out in these General Rules, including Sponsor’s right to use your Entry or Entries for any future commercial purpose without restrictions. Upon request, you will obtain written consent of any such persons for Sponsor in the form identified by Sponsor. If any person appearing in any Entry is under the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence, the written consent and signature of a parent or legal guardian is required.

Your Entry does not reference any person other than Entrant, or any names, products or services of any company or entity or any third-party trademarks, logos, copyrights, trade dress or promotion of any brand, product, or service.

Your Entry is appropriate for public viewing. Without limiting the foregoing, your Entry is not lewd, obscene, sexually explicit, pornographic, disparaging, defamatory, libelous, or otherwise contain content which Sponsor in its sole discretion decides is inappropriate or objectionable. Your Entry must also not disparage or cast a negative light on any person, entity, or brand, product, or service.

Your Entry complies with all of Sponsor’s, Instagram’s, and any other relevant party’s requirements and terms regarding the use of their services.

Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to not consider any Entry for the applicable Promotion if it believes the Entry violates or potentially violates any of the foregoing requirements or otherwise fails to comply with any provision of these General Rules or any other rules provided by Sponsor. You agree to reimburse Sponsor in full in respect of any losses, damages, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees that Sponsor may sustain from the breach of a representation or warranty made by you or the use of any rights granted by you to Sponsor hereunder. By entering, you warrant that your Entry complies with the requirements set out above, including those at (i)–(v). By entering, you hereby grant to Sponsor a perpetual, irrevocable, exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sub-licensable, freely assignable license to reproduce your Entry and to otherwise use, exploit, copy, modify, adapt, edit, publish and display the Entry in any form, manner, venue, media or technology now known or later developed for any and all purposes, including, without limitation, for purposes of commercial or trade purposes, advertising, and promotion as Sponsor and its licensees or assignees determine, without further compensation, notification, or permission. Further, by entering, you hereby waive any moral rights you may have in any Entry in favor of the Sponsor.

By submitting your Entry you, also grant to Sponsor the worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully sub-licensable, and freely transferable right, but not the obligation, to use any and all names, identities, Instagram handle, titles, likenesses, distinctive appearances, physical likenesses, images, portraits, pictures, photographs (whether still or moving), screen personas, voices, vocal styles, statements, gestures, mannerisms, personalities, performance characteristics, biographical data, signatures, and any other indicia or imitations of identity or likeness listed, provided, referenced, or otherwise contained in the Entry and/or image (all attributes, collectively, per person, a “Persona”) for purposes of advertising and trade, in any format, medium, or technology now known or later developed without further notice, approval, or compensation, unless prohibited by law.

HOW TO ENTER: Entry does not require a payment or a purchase of any kind. To enter an Instagram Promotion, an Entrant must have an Instagram account. If you do not have an Instagram account you may create one for free by visiting instagram.com. By submitting your information and creating an account, you agree to the terms of use and privacy policy of Instagram. If you do not agree to such terms of use and privacy policy, you cannot create an account or participate in this Promotion. COTA may refuse Entries from Instagram users with “private” updates (i.e., Entrant has set his or her account so that only people the Entrant has approved can view his or her updates) upon belief that the Entry does not comply with these Terms and Conditions or if it prevents Entrant from receiving communication from COTA regarding the Promotion. If Entrant is using his or her mobile device to enter, charges, including message and data rates, may apply. Entrants should consult their wireless service provider regarding its pricing plans.

Additionally, participants may enter any promotion hosted by COTA by emailing their full name, mailing address, email address, and phone number to [email protected] and making reference to the specific promotion being hosted. Each email entry must be submitted individually, and each individual may only submit one entry.

To enter, respond in the manner specified on the Forum and time period set forth in the offer (the “Entry Period”). Limit one (1) entry per unique Instagram account or email address as applicable and per person per Promotion. Entries generated by script, macro or other automated means are void, as are entries that are illegible, garbled, incomplete, or that contain errors. Normal time, toll, connection and usage rates, if any, charged by your Internet service provider will apply. All entries become the property of COTA. No other entry method will be accepted.

WINNER SELECTION: Winner selection will be based on either (i) a random selection from among all eligible entries conducted by Sponsor or Sponsor’s authorized representative; or (ii) the criteria specified on the COTA Instagram feed, Website, or at the Facility. In the event the winner(s) are selected at random, the odds of winning may depend upon the number of eligible Entries received. In the event the winner(s) are selected based on specific criteria, Sponsor will select a panel of qualified judges (the “Judging Panel”) to evaluate each eligible entry based on the specified criteria, weighted in the Judging Panel’s sole discretion. To be clear, the Judging Panel may review multiple entries that submit similar entries; in such a case, the Judging Panel may consider the timing of such entries in making its decision but will not be bound to designate as a potential winner the first submission of such similar entries. Proof of transmission is not proof of receipt. COTA’s computer is the official time-keeping device for the Promotion and determines the order of receipt of entries. All decisions of COTA are final and binding with respect to all matters related to the Promotion.

WINNER NOTIFICATION/VALIDATION: Prizes are subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these General Rules and any specific rules set forth in the Promotion. By entering this Promotion, each entrant agrees that the Sponsor may contact the entrant using the email address, phone number, social media handle or other contact information provided with the Entry, to administer and fulfill this Promotion. Name of winner (first name / city) will be posted on COTA’s Instagram page and other Instagram pages who are involved in the Promotion as applicable and the Website when available. Entrants may receive notice of prizes by Sponsor or its designated representative via direct message on Instagram. Entrants must adjust their Instagram account settings to allow for receipt of messages from Sponsor. For this purpose, entrants must set their Instagram account settings to “Public” and take any further necessary steps to ensure receipt of any communication from Sponsor. It is entrant’s sole responsibility to take any steps necessary to adjust their account settings to permit entrant to receive messages from Sponsor. Any Entrant’s failure or inability to receive any message(s) from Sponsor for any reason shall be deemed a failure by such entrant to comply with these rules, such entrant shall be disqualified from the Promotion. Similarly, Sponsor shall not be liable for any lost, misdirected, or otherwise unreceived or illegible messages from entrants. In the event of a dispute, the name and mailing address first sent by direct message from the holder of the Instagram account will be deemed to be the Entrant. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, is disqualified, or fails to timely execute and return any required forms, an alternate winner may be selected from among the remaining eligible entries. Entrants are responsible for the payment of all taxes which may result from participation in a Promotion. Prizes will be fulfilled approximately 4-6 weeks after winner validation unless a different time period is specified in the Promotion. Any winner later determined to be ineligible may be required to return his/her prize. AN ENTRANT IS NOT A WINNER UNLESS AND UNTIL COTA HAS COMPLETED ITS VERIFICATION OF ENTRANT’S ELIGIBILITY AND ENTRANT COMPLIES WITH THESE GENERAL RULES AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE RULES.

PRIZES: Prizes may consist of COTA merchandise, signed COTA merchandise, event tickets, in-person experiences, or other rewards determined by COTA in its sole discretion. Prize details and availability are subject to change, in which case a prize of equal value may be substituted at COTA’s sole discretion. Entrants may waive the right to receive a prize. Prizes consist only of the items listed by COTA and are non-assignable, non-transferable, with no cash redemption or substitution except at COTA’s sole discretion. COTA will determine all prize details (brand, model, size, etc.) in its sole discretion. Entrants may be required to provide their valid Social Security Number to COTA for tax purposes and/or complete an IRS W-9 form in order to receive a prize. Entrants are solely responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes on a prize’s value and, as applicable, will be issued an IRS Form 1099 based on the prize’s value determined by COTA. Prizes not claimed by eligible Entrants in accordance with these General Rules will not be sent to Entrants and will remain the property of COTA. COTA may require prize winners to complete, sign, and return an Affidavit of Eligibility/Liability Release/Publicity Release and other applicable documents. All required documents must be completed and returned to COTA within a time period specified on the Promotion. Odds of winning depend on the number and timing of entries received in each Promotion.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES: TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY PROMOTION, INCLUDING PRIZES, IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND IS NOT WARRANTED IN ANY WAY. YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR PARTICIPATION IN A PROMOTION, INCLUDING RECEIPT, USE, REDEMPTION OF ANY PRIZE, IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
