I want to give back to my community by offering a high dollar service for free to one winner of a random draw. I was planning on posting this online to get people to email me in order to be entered. Am I allowed to say you have to live within a certain radius to enter (so that I dont have to drive 4 hours to the winner)?
You can, as long as it’s not a protected class you’re discriminating against. You can say within X miles of your office. You can’t say you have to be a particular race.
You probably want to run it by a lawyer, cover your bases, write you up one of those terms and conditions leagaleze paragraphs you hear radio ads run through at inhuman speeds.
