  rebate  redemption  forms  based on reasonably anticipated sales; or (2)
  the means to create a rebate redemption form prior to or at the time and
  place of sale.
    (c) For purposes of internet sales, a generally accessible individual,
  firm, company, partnership, limited liability  company,  corporation  or

  this  section. For purposes of telephone sales, directing consumers to a
  generally accessible individual,  firm,  company,  partnership,  limited
  liability  company,  corporation  or entity internet site, including the

  and  conditions  of  the  offer  for  the  submission  of  a request for
  redemption by the consumer.
