Eligibility
Applicants and nominees must meet the eligibility criteria stated on the application and nomination forms at the time of submission (for example, age and location requirements). We may update these criteria from year to year.
Your submissions
You're responsible for the accuracy of information you submit, and for having the nominee's or any reference's permission to share their contact information with us. You retain ownership of what you submit, and you grant us permission to use it to administer and promote the awards program.
Judging
Selection and scoring decisions are made at our sole discretion. Submitting a nomination or application does not guarantee selection, an award, or any particular outcome.
Acceptable use
