Sweepstakes Rules

Summit Marketing & Promotions Instagram Sweepstakes (“Sweepstakes”)

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF WINNING.

1. ELIGIBILITY.

The Sweepstakes is open to those natural persons who are 18 years of age or older at time of entry, who reside in and are legal residents of the United States (and the District of Columbia) (“Entrants”). Residents of Puerto Rico are not eligible. Entrants must have access to the Internet throughout the Sweepstakes. Employees of Summit Marketing & Promotions, LLC (“Summit Marketing & Promotions”) and its respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and their immediate family members (spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandparents and their respective spouses, and individuals residing in such immediate family members’ household) are ineligible to enter and win. Void where prohibited by law, regulation or ordinance. By participating in this Sweepstakes, Entrants agree to these Official Rules, the Specific Rules for the particular sweepstakes, and Summit Marketing & Promotions’ Privacy Policy (the “Rules”).

2. SWEEPSTAKES PERIOD.

The Sweepstakes begins on the date referenced in the Instagram post announcing the Sweepstakes (each, the “Sweeps Post”) and ends on the date referenced in the Sweeps Post. Summit Marketing & Promotions’ computer is the official time-keeping device for this Sweepstakes.

3. HOW TO ENTER.

To enter the Sweepstakes, follow the instructions on the Sweeps Post. The number of entries into the Sweepstakes is limited to the number referenced in the Sweeps Post, if any. An attempt to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple or different email addresses, identities, registrations, logins, or any other methods will void that Entrant’s entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. The use of an automated system to participate in the Sweepstakes is prohibited and will result in disqualification. If a dispute arises over the identity of the person who transmitted an entry via an identified social media account, the Authorized Account Holder of the email address or social media account at time of entry will be deemed to be the Entrant. The “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person assigned to a social media account by an internet access provider, online provider or other organization (e.g. business, education institution, etc.) responsible for assigned social media accounts, as the case may be. The potential winner may be required to show proof of being the Authorized Account Holder.

4. WINNER SELECTION, NOTIFICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

Promptly upon the conclusion of the Sweepstakes, the winner(s) will be chosen by a random drawing from all eligible entries received. The odds of winning depends on the total number of eligible entries received. Winners will be announced on the date referenced in the Sweeps Post. If the prize notification is unclaimed within 72 hours of transmission of the notification, or in the event of non-compliance with the Rules, the prize will be forfeited and may be awarded to an alternate winner. The prizewinner is solely responsible for all federal, state and local taxes and other costs pertaining to the awarded prize. The prizewinner agrees to allow Summit Marketing & Promotions to use the winner’s name (whether in print publication, online, or other means of communication), without compensation, to notify the public of their winnings.
