ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The clause establishes DraftKings' contractual right to exploit winner identities across multiple channels and formats without separate compensation or consent mechanisms. It also creates an affirmative obligation for winners to participate in promotional activities during the specified period, which extends beyond the contest itself.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

By entering or winning, participants grant DraftKings broad rights to use their identifying information and likeness in perpetuity for contest-related purposes. Winners specifically assume an obligation to remain available for promotional participation activities as directed by DraftKings during the post-notification period, with the duration determined unilaterally by DraftKings.
