Contest Rules

General Contest Framework

Dream OS campaigns should be governed by official rules that explain eligibility, entry method, timing, prize value, winner selection, verification, sponsor identity, taxes, restrictions, and dispute handling. Every major campaign should have clear written rules before launch.

Dream OS should avoid language that makes campaigns look like gambling, betting, lotteries, or guaranteed earnings. Campaigns should be presented as promotional engagement and customer acquisition experiences.

Core Requirement

No contest should launch without a clear sponsor, official rules, eligibility standards, and review process.

Eligibility Rules

Contest eligibility may be limited by age, location, identity verification, account standing, campaign sponsor restrictions, and applicable law.

• Minimum age requirements
• Location restrictions
• One account per person unless rules state otherwise
• No employees/insiders if restricted
• Verification before prize release

Fair Play

Dream OS may use anti-cheat and platform integrity controls to protect contests.

• No bots or automated play.
• No duplicate accounts.
• No collusion or tampering.
• No exploitation of bugs.
• Suspicious activity may trigger manual review.

Winner Verification

Potential winners are not final until eligibility, identity, compliance, and fraud checks are completed.

• Photo ID or identity verification may be required.
• Tax documentation may be required for qualifying prizes.
• Prizes may be forfeited if verification is not completed.

Prize Conditions

Prizes may be substituted, delayed, withheld, or canceled where required by law, sponsor rules, fraud review, or operational limitations.

• No prize is guaranteed until confirmed.
• Prize values should be disclosed.
• Taxes may be the winner’s responsibility.
• Bank/payment partner rules may apply.
