Internet entries must be made by the entrant only at the Sponsor’s Instagram Page or Facebook Page for the specific Promotion. Entries made by any other individual or any entity, and/or originating at any other web site or e-mail address, including, but not limited to, commercial sweepstake subscription notification and/or entering service sites, will be declared invalid and disqualified for this Promotion. The use of any device to automate the entry process is prohibited and no mechanically reproduced entries will be accepted. Online entries made under multiple identities or through the use of any other device or artifice to enter multiple times will be deemed invalid.
The Promotion Entities, including Nature Nate’s, are not responsible and shall have no liability for (i) entries from persons residing or located outside the Territory; or (ii) inaccurate, forged, incomplete, stolen, lost, illegible, damaged, mutilated, tampered with, postage-due, misdirected, delayed or late entries, whether caused by Internet users or by any equipment or programming associated with the Promotion or by any technical or human error which may occur in the delivery or processing of entries in the Promotion.
No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win. A purchase will not improve your chances of winning.
Entries will not be acknowledged or returned and become the property of Sponsor. Sponsor shall have the right to use, assign, edit, modify or dispose of any entry however it sees fit without approval of the entrant.
DISQUALIFICATION OF ENTRANT. Should Sponsor determine, in its sole discretion, that any entrant has violated any of the provisions in these Official Rules, Sponsor shall have no obligation to award the Prize to such entrant. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual it finds to be (i) tampering with the entry process; (ii) attempting to damage Sponsor’s Instagram Page or Facebook Page or undermining the legitimate operation of such sites; (iii) acting in violation of these Official Rules or any federal or state, law, rule or regulation; or (iv) acting in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner or with the intent to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person. Should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right, in addition to the right to disqualify such person, to seek damages and other remedies from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law.
