Sweepstakes & Contests: A Global Legal Perspective
Running a sweepstakes, contest game or prize promotion in a global market demands an understanding of the laws of multiple countries, which can vary dramatically when it comes to requirements like registration and bonding, permitted prizes, translation, drawings, and many other restrictions. Join members of the Global Advertising Lawyers Alliance from the United States of America, United Kingdom, Mexico, Netherlands, and the Caribbean for a webinar where we will discuss some of the issues in structuring a prize promotion that is open to entrants from multiple jurisdictions, and drill down on the laws in this complex area using specific examples, with the goal of helping attendees better understand how to evaluate and structure their own campaigns. We will talk about these challenges, new developments under the law in each of the countries, and practical advice for running compliant global promotions.
