O’Reilly Awards Program terms and conditions

Description of program:

The O’Reilly Awards Program recognizes organizations whose use of the O’Reilly learning platform exemplifies excellence in one of several categories: Most Effective User Onboarding Program, Best in Skills Transformation, Interactive Learning Champion, and O’Reilly’s Choice. Organizations may nominate themselves for consideration. Small (less than 300 employees), medium (300–1,000 employees), and large organizations (more than 1,000 employees) are evaluated separately.

How to enter:

Complete the online application at https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/6824236/oreilly-awards-application for your organization (the “Subscriber”) and indicate your acceptance of the O’Reilly Awards Program terms and conditions. No application will be returned.

Requirements:

• The Subscriber must have a B2B subscription in good standing at both the time of application submission and award announcement.
• The complete online application must be received on or before the July 15, 2022, deadline.
• All information provided by the applicant must be accurate. O’Reilly reserves the right to independently verify the content of any application.
• Each organization may submit a maximum of one application in up to two categories.
• Any questions about the O’Reilly Awards Program must be directed to awards@oreilly.com. Applicants may not otherwise consult with, or make inquiries to, members of O’Reilly’s staff regarding the preparation or status of their application.
• Subscribers to O’Reilly’s Academic Library are eligible to participate, provided that they’ve contracted directly with O’Reilly. Subscribers who have purchased subscriptions through resellers (e.g., ProQuest) are not eligible to participate.

Selection:

Applications are judged on the basis of four criteria: business impact, end user engagement and benefits, making the judges go “wow!”, and quantitative and qualitative results in relation to the Subscriber’s adoption and/or use of the O’Reilly learning platform. Judging takes place by a cross-functional committee of O’Reilly employees during the period from July 16 to August 19, 2022. Winners will be notified on or around September 12, 2022, via email and are required to keep their status confidential until after O’Reilly announces award recipients. Award recipients may be featured in press releases, web pages, and other materials.

Publicity:

As an applicant, you agree that O’Reilly and its agents may publicize and reproduce your application (including the name and title of anyone mentioned therein) in any manner, in whole or in part, without limitation, and without any compensation. In connection with the foregoing, O’Reilly reserves the right to edit the application for clarity but will not make substantive changes without your prior written approval. In addition, you grant O’Reilly and its agents the right to use the Subscriber’s logo in connection with the foregoing uses of the application, as well as in customer lists. As a condition of participation, Subscriber agrees to indemnify O’Reilly, including for legal costs, against any challenges to the use of or rights to material in your application.

Privacy and personal data:

Any personal data submitted in the context of the O’Reilly Awards Program will be processed by O’Reilly in accordance with the O’Reilly privacy policy, for the purposes of evaluating applications under the program. To the extent that you are providing personal data relating to or on behalf of a third party, you represent that you have obtained, to the extent required, that third party’s authorization and that you have provided them with a copy of these terms and the link to the O’Reilly privacy policy.

Right to cancel or modify:

O’Reilly reserves the right to cancel or modify the O’Reilly Awards Program if fraud, misconduct, or technical failures harm the integrity of the program or if a computer virus, bug, or other technical problem corrupts the administration or security of the program as determined by O’Reilly in its sole discretion. If insufficient applications are received, or if no application meets the minimum reasonable criteria for an award, in O’Reilly’s sole and final discretion, fewer than all awards may be made.

Right to exclude:

O’Reilly reserves the right to prohibit the participation of an individual or organization if fraud or tampering is suspected or for failure to comply with any requirement of participation as stated herein or with any provision in these O’Reilly Awards Program terms and conditions.
