The Points have no cash value, and no cash or other substitution may be made, except by Sponsor, who reserves the right to substitute Points or Rewards with another premium of equal or greater value if the Reward is not available for any reason as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Points are earned through participation in sponsored and other events, as more particularly described on the Sponsor's Website, provided such Participant has satisfied all Program requirements and complied fully with these Terms and Conditions, as well as any conditions posted upon the Sponsor's Website, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Reward opportunities will be periodically updated throughout the term of the Program at the Sponsor’s Website.
