For each contest, winners are determined by GridRival® based on the ability to predict the performance of professional athletes over the course of multiple, real-world sporting events. GridRival® shall have the sole discretion of determining its game rules and selecting winners of these contests. Further, GridRival® shall be the sole arbiter of disputes over who wins each contest.
