Online surveys/Online and On-Air Contests
From time to time, we may conduct online surveys and we may conduct contests either online or over-the-air. To participate in these surveys or contests, we will ask you to submit contact information (such as your name or email address) and possibly demographic information (such as zip code or age). We will use this information to contact you if you are a winner.
Our contest rules allow us to use your name or likeness, or a recording of your voice, in promotional announcements on-air or on our website. By participating in a contest, you consent to our use of your name or likeness, or a recording of your voice, in the event that you win the contest. We may use information collected from contest entries and online surveys to notify you about upcoming station contests, promotions and events. We may also use the information you provide to conduct internal surveys. We maintain a database containing contest winners’ information but do not share this information with unaffiliated third parties or advertisers.
If you win a monetary prize in a contest, you will be required to provide your social security number for tax reporting purposes. We will not share your social security number with unaffiliated third parties or use it for any purpose other than mandatory reporting to the IRS.
