SUMMARY OF COMPETITION DATES:

ELIGIBILITY: Open only to persons who are 18 years of age or older and residents of Australia. Neither employees of HubSpot Australia or its affiliates, nor their spouses, parents, children, siblings, or other immediate family are eligible to enter or win a prize.  All applicable federal, state, municipal, territorial and local laws and regulations apply. Void where prohibited or restricted by law. No purchase is necessary to win. A purchase will not increase your chances of winning.

COMPETITION PERIOD: The Australia Goes to Boston INBOUND Conference Competition (“Competition”) entry period begins at the Entry Open Date above and ends at the Entry Close Date above (the "Competition Period"). Winners will be selected from entries properly submitted and timely received during the Competition Period.

HOW TO ENTER: During the Competition Period, (1) submit an entry with your name and email address at http://offers.hubspot.com/inbound-2015-free-trip-contest-australia (“Entry Page”), telling us in 25 words or less why you want to go to INBOUND 2015, the world’s largest gathering of inbound marketing and sales professionals, AND (2) share a customized link to the competition to another person three times, using any combination of the social sharing mechanisms provided on the Entry Page (these two components collectively, an “Entry”). For clarity, if you do not share the link three times, as measured by the Gleam widget on the Entry Page (including successful entry to the Competition by the person with which the link is shared, where noted), your Entry will not be valid, and sharing the link more than three times will neither increase your chances of winning nor grant you any additional Entries.  Limit One (1) Entry per person, per e-mail address, and per household during the Competition Period, regardless of whether a person has more than one address or more than one person uses the same address.

JUDGING: The Competition is a Game of Skill. Chance plays no part in determining the winner. Winner will be determined by a panel of inbound marketing experts employed by HubSpot Australia or its affiliates, based on originality, catchiness, and ability to demonstrate an understanding of the value of inbound marketing and the INBOUND conference. Winner selection will be held on the Winner Selection Date above at Level 19, 1 O’Connell Street, Sydney, NSW 2000. Winner will be selected from entries received during the Competition Period. The potential winner will be notified via email to the email address submitted with the potential winner’s entry within one (1) week after the selection. Winner name will also be published on the Competition’s web page (http://offers.hubspot.com/inbound-2015-free-trip-contest-australia) within one (1) week after their selection for a period of thirty (30) days. The selection will be conducted by HubSpot Australia, the judge of the Competition, whose decisions on all matters relating to the Competition shall be final.
