a) McDonald’s will send prizes or emails/letters giving notification of a prize-claim or prize-award by the time stated in the Special Terms or, if none, within 30 days of the closing date for entries.

The Special Terms or the notification will direct what information must be returned to McDonald’s, how this should be sent and the deadline by when this must be received by McDonald’s.
b) If McDonald’s chooses to contact the winner by phone in addition to the sending of a notification email, this will be in McDonald’s discretion and won’t affect the winner’s obligation to respond to McDonald’s notification email(s) as stated nor McDonald’s right to treat its notification email(s) as fully discharging all winner-notification obligations under these Terms.
c) If a prize or letter giving notification of a prize-claim or prize-award is sent by registered, recorded or other signed for mail or courier (which McDonald’s will determine in its sole discretion and without prior notice), it is the entrant’s responsibility to enable timely delivery or make timely collection-arrangements from the postal or courier service.
d) Where a prize comprises a trip, the prize claim-notification email/letter will provide:
i) (if applicable to the trip) confirmation whether McDonald’s needs to make further contact to arrange outstanding trip dates or other details (in which event it is the responsibility of the winner to make himself or herself available for such further contact and to ensure that such outstanding trip dates and other details are finalised within any further time limits and as McDonald’s otherwise stipulates), and
ii) (if required by McDonald’s) an acceptance form for the entrant and release forms for the entrant and each companion permitted to accompany the entrant on the trip (for the benefit of McDonald’s, its related companies, franchisees and agencies concerned with conducting the promotion and their respective employees, officers and agents).
