Can I offer contests that involve in-game promotions in Hawaii? What are the requirements?
Based on the information provided in the context documents, it appears that you can offer contests that involve in-game promotions in Hawaii, but you may need to obtain a commercial use permit or a catamaran registration certificate from the Department of Land and Natural Resources [2.1].
To qualify for a commercial use permit, you must be a duly organized business in good standing in the State of Hawaii or an individual over the age of eighteen, hold a current Hawaii state general excise tax license, hold a current Hawaii state tax clearance certificate, and submit an application for a permit at least forty-five days prior to the requested permit commencement date [2.1].
However, a commercial use permit application may be denied if the Department of Land and Natural Resources determines that the proposed activity would be detrimental to the integrity or safety of the park, would compromise the access and availability of the park or the enjoyment or safety of the general public, or would have a significant negative impact on park users and facilities, among other reasons [2.1].
It is important to note that the above information is based solely on the context documents provided and may not be comprehensive or up-to-date. It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional familiar with Hawaii state laws and regulations for a more accurate and complete answer to your question.
Additionally, you may need to obtain prior approval from the superintendent if the contest is a statewide community sponsored activity [4.1]. Schools may cooperate with sponsors of approved activities by making announcements, posting notices, and communicating information on these activities by other appropriate means to interested students [4.2].
