Entrants are prohibited from submitting an Entry (as defined below) for a purpose other than entering the Sweepstakes for the entrant’s personal benefit. Prohibited purposes include, but are not limited to, engaging in competition with Open Farm and/or inducing email messages to be sent to any fraud management tool such as a “spamtrap” or “honey pot.” If any Entry (as defined below) or entrant is determined to be non-compliant with these Official Rules, said Entry or entrant may be disqualified, as determined in Open Farm’s sole discretion.
HOW TO ENTER:
(a) Website Entries. Prospective entrants wishing to enter the Sweepstakes must first go to the Sweepstakes web page located at https://app.viralsweep.com/sweeps/full/d1b7fd-90222?framed=1 (the “Site”) and complete the Sweepstakes entry form.

NO ENTRANT IS PERMITTED TO OPEN ANY ADDITIONAL, SEPARATE EMAIL ACCOUNTS, OR OTHERWISE SUBMIT ENTRIES, UNDER ALIASES IN ORDER TO ADD HER/HIMSELF AS A REFERRAL AND EARN ADDITIONAL REFERRAL ENTRIES IN CONNECTION WITH THOSE ADDITIONAL EMAIL ACCOUNTS (“SELF-REFERRAL”).
OPEN FARM RESERVES THE RIGHT TO INVALIDATE ANY PROSPECTIVE REFERRAL AND/OR ANY ASSOCIATED REFERRAL ENTRIES WHERE OPEN FARM DETERMINES, IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION, THAT THE REFERRAL IS A SELF-REFERRAL AND/OR WAS THE PRODUCT OF COLLUSION, WAS GENERATED USING ANY FRAUDULENT OR DECEPTIVE METHOD, WAS GENERATED IN BAD FAITH OR WAS OTHERWISE GENERATED IN VIOLATION OF THESE RULES.

Each Sweepstakes Share must include the hashtag “#Sweepstakes” in order to be considered a valid Sweepstakes Share.

As an alternative means of entry in the Sweepstakes, prospective entrants who have completed the Website Entry process may submit an electronic mail (“e-mail”) entry that contains the AMOE Registration Data, as defined below (each, an “AMOE Entry E-mail”). Where an entrant properly submits an AMOE Entry E-Mail, that entrant shall receive eleven (11) entries in the Sweepstakes (the “AMOE Entries,” and together with the Website Entries, Referral Entries and Instagram® Entries, the “Entries”). To complete an AMOE Entry E-mail, entrants must include “Glow Up Giveaway” within the subject line of the email, as well as their full name (collectively, “AMOE Registration Data”). Entrants must send their AMOE email to partnerships@openfarmpet.com. Entries must be received by Open Farm no later than 11:59:59 p.m. EST on July 25, 2021, to be entered in the Prize drawing. Any improperly submitted AMOE Entry E-mails (i.e., any potential AMOE Entry E-mail having invalid or incomplete AMOE Registration Data) will be VOID. Limit: Each entrant may only submit (1) AMOE Entry Email, representing eleven (11) AMOE Entries, and any AMOE Entry Email(s) and associated AMOE Entries submitted by the same individual in excess of the aforementioned limits will be discarded.
(e) Entry Limits/General Provisions. Entrants who are potential Prize winners may be required to provide some or all of the following: (i) Social Security Number; (ii) picture proof of identification, which may include a driver’s license, passport, voting card or similar government issued identification; and (iii) any other information requested by Open Farm in connection with the Prize verification/award process (“Prize Winner Data,” and together with the Site Registration Data and AMOE Registration Data, the “Registration Data”). Entrants must update their Registration Data regularly to remain eligible to win a Prize. All Entries shall be deemed the property of Open Farm and will not be acknowledged or returned. The total combined number of Entries submitted during the Sweepstakes Period per entrant may not exceed twelve (12) in the aggregate. So, by way of example, if an entrant submits a Website Entry and an AMOE Entry during the Sweepstakes Period, that entrant will not be permitted to also submit any Instagram® Entries and/or Referral Entries during the Sweepstakes Period. Any Entries submitted in excess of these limitations will be discarded. Multiple individuals are not permitted to share the same email address. Any attempt by any individual to obtain more than the permitted number of Entries by using multiple/different mobile devices, identities, registrations and user-names, or any other method, will void all of that individual’s Entries and that individual will be disqualified from participating in the Sweepstakes. Use of any automated system to participate in the Sweepstakes is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Open Farm reserves the right to reject any Entry that it believes, in its sole and reasonable discretion, is fraudulent, incomplete or otherwise invalid. Open Farm is not responsible for Entries, Sweepstakes-related e-mail, Sweepstakes-related push notifications, claims or notices that are lost, late, illegible, misdirected, damaged, incomplete or incorrect. By entering the Sweepstakes, and where you have otherwise provided the requisite consent, you agree to receive e-mail and direct mail marketing messages from Open Farm and its marketing partners, subject to the Open Farm Privacy Policy (the “Open Farm Privacy Policy”). See the “Eligibility/Privacy Statement” section hereinbelow for a link to the Open Farm Privacy Policy.
IDENTIFICATION OF ENTRANTS: Each Entry will be identified by both the applicable entrant’s e-mail address, as collected and stored in the Sweepstakes Database. For purposes of Official Rules, the “Sweepstakes Database” is defined as the entire list of valid Entries generated during the Sweepstakes Period. Open Farm will stop accepting Entries at 11:59:59 p.m. PST on July 25, 2021.
RANDOM PRIZE WINNER DRAWING: Within ten (10) days of the end of the Sweepstakes Period, Open Farm shall select, using third-party randomizer software, two (2) potential Prize winners. All decisions of Open Farm are final and binding in all respects. Open Farm will attempt to notify each potential Prize winner within ten (10) days of her/his selection as a potential Prize winner, and the Prize will be delivered on the latter of three (3) weeks from acknowledgement of the notification and eligibility verification, or at such time as the Prize becomes available. Potential winners will be notified by e-mail, or another means as determined in Open Farm’s discretion. If a potential Prize winner does not respond to Open Farm’s notification within five (5) days or is unwilling to or cannot accept the Prize, the Prize will be forfeited, and an alternate potential Prize winner may be selected from the pool of Sweepstakes entrants. If an entrant is deemed ineligible, an alternate potential Prize winner may be selected from the Entry pool. No more than the advertised number of Prizes will be awarded. The potential Prize winners shall be subject to eligibility verification. Each potential Prize winner will be required to provide Prize Winner Data and execute a notarized Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release (“Affidavit”) and return such Affidavit within five (5) days following attempted notification. In addition, each potential Prize winner may be required to provide picture proof of identification, which may include a driver’s license, passport, voting card or similar government issued identification, and proof that she/he is the entrant that submitted the applicable winning Entry. If there is a dispute as to the identity of the entrant, the Prize will be awarded to the authorized account holder of the applicable email address. The “authorized account holder” is defined as the natural person to whom the applicable email address is assigned. At the sole discretion of Open Farm, disqualification, forfeiture, and the selection of an alternate potential Prize winner may result from any of the following: (1) a potential Prize winner’s failure to respond to winner notification within five (5) days of transmission; (2) the return of a notification as undeliverable after one (1) attempt; (3) a potential Prize winner’s failure to demonstrate her/his eligibility, or to provide Open Farm with satisfactory proof of age, identity, and residency within five (5) days of initial winner notification; (4) a potential Prize winner’s failure to execute and return an Affidavit, requested tax information and/or W9 within five (5) days of its transmission of same; or (5) any other failure to comply with these Official Rules.
ODDS: The odds of winning a Prize depend on the number of eligible Entries received but can be calculated by dividing the number of Prizes by the total number of Entries received.
PRIZES AND APPROXIMATE RETAIL VALUE: Two (2) winners will be awarded prizes (each, a “Prize”), consisting of all of the following:
