In the event of a dispute as to any entry, the authorized account holder of the email address associated with the pertinent Instagram account will be deemed to be the entrant.

Except where legally prohibited, the potential winner must sign and return, within seven (7) days of being notified, a Declaration of Eligibility, Liability & Publicity Release ("Declaration and Release") in order to claim his/her prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted in person via Instagram direct message after the first attempt to contact him/her, or if he/she fails to sign and return the Declaration and Release or other required document within the required time period (if applicable), or in the event that a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner selected by a random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only two (2) alternate drawings will be held, after which any remaining prizes will remain un-awarded.

    Verification of Potential Winners: ALL POTENTIAL WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE SWEEPSTAKES.
