Can I offer contests that involve email promotions in Oklahoma? What are the requirements?

Based on the provided context documents, it appears that there are no specific regulations in Oklahoma regarding contests that involve email promotions. However, there may be general regulations that apply to such contests, such as those related to advertising and sales reports.

Advertising [6.1]

According to OKAC 165:16-9-1, advertising literature relating to any product sold in Oklahoma must not contain any statement that the product has been approved by the Commission unless a current permit from PSTD has been issued to the distributor, manufacturer, marketer, packer, producer, seller, warehouse, or wholesaler. This may apply to advertising related to contests that involve email promotions.

Renewal of registration and sales reports [3.2]

OKAC 660:25-3-2 requires sellers seeking renewal of a registration to submit a report indicating the total number of purchasers in the state of Oklahoma and the total amount of consideration received therefrom since the effective date of the initial registration. Registrants are also required to submit sales reports to the Administrator, which shall contain a statement of the total number of purchasers in the state of Oklahoma and the total amount of consideration received therefrom since the effective date of the initial registration. This may apply to contests that involve email promotions if they involve the sale of products or services.

Quality event requirements, limitations and eligibility [2.1]

OKAC 710:95-21-3 outlines the requirements, limitations, and eligibility for quality events in Oklahoma. A host community can designate a quality event pursuant to the adoption by the governing body of the host community an ordinance or resolution which must contain designation of the following: (1) The dates during which a quality event will be hosted; and (2) The type of expenses eligible for payment through distribution of captured revenues to the host community including, but not limited to, advertising, facility rental, promotional materials, and security. This may apply to contests that involve email promotions if they are designated as a quality event.

Therefore, it is recommended that you consult with a legal expert to ensure that your contest complies with all applicable regulations in Oklahoma.
