Official Rules & Privacy: Splash Attack, ISSA Show North America 2026
1. Organizer
The Splash Attack game (the "Game") is organized by Ekcos Innovations Corp., a Texas corporation, 12000 US Hwy 281 N, Round Mountain, TX 78663, USA (the "Organizer").
2. Nature of the Game
The Game is a free game of skill, played for fun. Participation is voluntary. No purchase or payment of any kind is required to play or to win, and a purchase will not improve your score. All players play the same game, and no element of chance decides the winner. Playing the Game does not create any business, purchase or other commitment between you and the Organizer, other than these Official Rules. The prize is offered by the Organizer as a promotional courtesy.
3. Game Period
The Game runs during ISSA Show North America 2026 at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, Nevada. It starts when the exhibit hall opens on November 17, 2026, and ends on November 19, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time (the "Game Period"). Only scores submitted and received by the Organizer's system by 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time on November 19, 2026, are eligible. All times in these Official Rules are Pacific Time.
4. Who Can Play
The Game is open to individuals 18 years of age or older, or the age of majority where they live, whichever is older, from any country, except where prohibited by law, including U.S. sanctions and export laws. Employees and officers of the Organizer and its affiliated companies, anyone involved in developing or running the Game, and their immediate family and household members, are not eligible to win. Participants are responsible for following any rules of their employer or government about accepting gifts or prizes. The Game is void where prohibited or restricted by law.
5. How to Play
- Scan a Game QR code displayed by the Organizer and open the Game on your own phone.
- Before the official game, every player plays one practice round of 10 seconds. The practice round does not count toward the prize.
- In the official game you have 3 lives. Your score is the number of drops you catch with the ëkcoscreen. Each drop that reaches the floor costs one life. The game ends when you lose your 3 lives.
- Each person may play one official game. Only your first official game counts.
- To be eligible to win, you must submit your score by completing the registration form with your first name, last name, company and email address (phone number is optional), and by accepting these Official Rules.
6. Disqualification
One official game and one registration are allowed per person and per email address. The Organizer may disqualify any participant who plays more than one official game by any means, registers more than once, uses more than one email address, provides false or incomplete information, uses software, automated tools or any other method to alter the Game or the score, or acts in a way that is unfair to other participants. The Organizer's decisions on these matters are final.
7. How the Winner Is Selected
The winner is the eligible participant with the highest score submitted during the Game Period. Scores are verified by the Organizer after the Game Period ends. The scores recorded by the Organizer's system are final.
8. Tiebreaker
- If two or more eligible participants have the same highest score, the Organizer will email each of them, by November 20, 2026, from an ekcos.com address, a single use link to play one tiebreaker game. Please check your spam folder.
- The tiebreaker is the same game, with the same 3 lives. If a link is used up by a technical failure verified by the Organizer, it is replaced once.
- Tiebreaker games must be played by Monday, November 23, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. The highest tiebreaker score wins.
- If only one tied participant plays the tiebreaker by the deadline, that participant wins.
- If the tiebreaker results in another tie, only the participants still tied play again, with a deadline of 48 hours from the email. Rules 8.2 to 8.6 apply to every round.
- A tied participant who does not play the tiebreaker by the deadline loses the right to the prize. If none of the tied participants plays by the deadline, the prize passes to the participant or participants with the next highest score, and the same process applies, with its own deadline stated in the email sent to them.
9. Prize
One (1) Apple iPad Air. The Organizer chooses the model and configuration. The prize cannot be exchanged for cash or for another product, and cannot be transferred. If the prize is not available, the Organizer may replace it with a product of equal or greater value. Any taxes that apply to the prize are the winner's responsibility.
10. Winner Notification and Delivery
- The winner will be notified by email at the address used to register. The winner may be asked for proof of identity and age before the prize is shipped.
- The winner has 15 U.S. business days from the date of the notification email to reply and confirm a shipping address. A winner who does not reply within this period loses the right to the prize. In that case, the prize passes to the next participant in the ranking (first the tiebreaker ranking, if there was one, then the original scores), following the same process.
- The Organizer pays the UPS or FedEx shipping charges to the winner's address. Delivery outside the United States may take longer, and any customs duties, import taxes or fees in the winner's country are the winner's responsibility. If the prize cannot be delivered to the address given, the Organizer will contact the winner once to correct it; if it still cannot be delivered, the winner loses the right to the prize.
11. Announcement of the Winner
To protect the winner's privacy, the Organizer will only announce the winner's first name, city (taken from the shipping address) and score. By accepting the prize, the winner agrees to this announcement.
