I declare that I have read and complied with, and that I understand, all of the Contest Rules, a copy of which is attached to this Declaration of Eligibility, Liability and Publicity Release (“Winner Release”), that all of the information set out below is true and that I have committed no fraud or deception in entering the Contest or claiming a prize.
I further declare that I am the age of majority in the province of British Columbia, where I reside, and that I am not the owner or an employee (or domiciled with an employee) of Mincov Law Corporation or Andrei Mincov, as the case may be, (collectively, the “Organizer”) or its subsidiaries, parents or affiliated companies, advertising or promotional agencies or other representatives, none of whom are eligible to enter the Contest or win a prize.
I further declare that I have the right and capacity to sign this Winner Release on my own behalf, on behalf of my child, and on behalf of the other parent, if applicable.
In consideration of the prize, which I acknowledge is good, valuable and sufficient consideration, I agree as follows:

3. to release the Organizer, the Organizer’s assignees or licensees, or their respective agents or representatives, parents, subsidiaries, affiliated companies, advertising and promotional agencies and representatives, and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents or other representatives (“Affiliated Parties”*) from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, expenses, costs and liabilities of any kind whatsoever which I may have against any of them arising out of or in connection with the Contest or prize;
4. to grant to the Organizer and the Affiliated Parties the right to print, publish, broadcast, transmit and use, worldwide in any media now known or hereafter developed, including, but not limited to, the World Wide Web, any of the Organizer’s Internet websites, including their blogs or Facebook pages, at any time(s), my child’s name, likeness, portrait, picture, photograph, voice, video camera footage, city or town, YouTube entry video(s) or biographical information as news or information and for promotional purposes without compensation or review;
