MEMBER REWARD PROGRAMS
To participate, you must be an active Member in good standing with Vegas Affiliates. Members participating in any reward program agree to be bound by the decisions of Vegas Affiliates, which will be final and binding in all respects. All interpretations of the Rules and decisions by Vegas Affiliates are final.
Vegas Affiliates reserves the right to terminate any and all Member Rewards programs for any reason, including, but not limited to, if for any reason the Rewards Program is not capable of running as planned or if the administration, security, fairness, integrity, or proper conduct of the Rewards Program is corrupted or adversely affected, including by reason of infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes beyond Vegas Affiliates' control. Vegas Affiliates reserves the right to cancel, terminate, modify or withdraw the Reward Program without prior notice and without liability to the Member.
All taxes, fees, and surcharges, if any, on Rewards are the sole responsibility of the prizewinner. Acceptance of a prize constitutes permission for Vegas Affiliates and its advertising and promotional agencies to use the recipients name, photograph and/or likeness for advertising and promoting and publicizing the services of Vegas Affiliates in any medium without compensation, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
Members release and hold harmless Vegas Affiliates and their Merchants and their respective members, subsidiaries, directors, officers, agents, employees, and all others associated with the development and execution of the Reward program from any and all liability with respect to or in any way arising from the Reward program and the awarding, use or misuse of the prize, including liability for personal injury or damage to property including any injury or damage to Member's or any other person's computer.
