Offering Contests Involving Mobile Apps in Kentucky

Based on the provided context documents, it appears that there are no specific regulations or statutes in Kentucky that govern contests involving mobile apps. However, it is important to note that any such contests must comply with applicable state and federal laws, including those related to consumer protection, privacy, and intellectual property.

If the contest involves gambling or wagering, it may be subject to regulation by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission under KRS Chapter 230. In particular, KRS 230.377 outlines the requirements for intertrack and simulcast wagering, and KRS 230.398 specifies the use of funds for purses at harness racing events at county fairs.

It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional to ensure that your contest complies with all relevant laws and regulations.
