On or about the day following the end of the Entry Period, Sponsor (or Sponsor’s designee) will select the names of five (5) potential prize winners (each, a “Potential Prize Winner”) in a random drawing from among all eligible Entries received during the Entry Period. The odds of winning are based on the number of eligible Entries received.
The Potential Prize Winners will be notified by Instagram direct message and/or comment within three (3) business days following the drawing (“Notification”). It is an Entrant’s responsibility to monitor their Instagram account to see if they are a Potential Prize Winner. Sponsor is not responsible for and shall not be liable for late, lost, damaged, intercepted, misdirected, or unsuccessful efforts to notify the Potential Prize Winners.
The Potential Prize Winners will be required to sign and return a Declaration of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release or other documents that Sponsor deems necessary, to confirm eligibility and, unless prohibited by law, obtain a liability/publicity release within a specified time period following the date of first attempted notification. Failure to return any required document by the date requested, will deem the applicable Potential Prize Winner ineligible, and their prize will be forfeited.
If Sponsor is unable to contact a Potential Prize Winner, or a Potential Prize Winner has not responded within 72 hours after the Notification has been sent, is not in compliance with these Official Rules, fails to return any required document, or declines to accept the prize for any reason prior to award, their prize will be forfeited and, in Sponsor’s discretion, an alternate winner may be selected in a random drawing from among all remaining eligible Entries, under the same conditions mentioned above. Only one alternate drawing will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded.
ALL POTENTIAL PRIZE WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE SWEEPSTAKES. A POTENTIAL PRIZE WINNER IS NOT A WINNER OF ANY PRIZE UNLESS AND UNTIL THEIR ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN VERIFIED, AND POTENTIAL PRIZE WINNER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE.
