A live profile is defined as containing at least one approved (by Sponsor) face picture of yourself. You may create a profile by going to http://crushorflush.com. You will earn one automatic entry every time you log into CrushorFlush.com during the Promotion Period*. The Sponsor collects personal information from each entrant as part of the profile process. The information collected is subject to the Sponsor's Privacy Policy posted at www.CrushorFlush.com. Use of the Sponsor's website is governed by the Sponsor's Terms of Use at CrushorFlush.com.
