Participant’s persona for purposes of advertising and trade in any and all media now known or
otherwise developed without further compensation or review. Participants agree that Fooji or the

or liability for (a) any incorrect or inaccurate entry information, or for any faulty, failed, garbled or
jumbled electronic data transmissions; (b) any unauthorized access to, or theft, destruction or
alteration of entries at any point in the operation of this Sweepstakes; (c) any technical
malfunction, failure, error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or

for the failure of any order to be received for any reason or for any delay in the processing or
failure to process any order or entries. The Sponsor and Administrator each reserve the right at
each of their sole discretion to disqualify any individual that tampers or attempts to tamper with
the order process or the operation of the Sweepstakes; violates the Official Rules; is suspected
of cheating, fraud, or acting in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or with intent to annoy,
abuse, threaten or harass any other person. Any Participant who uses or is suspected of using
cheating, fraudulent means, unauthorized ordering methods, or otherwise attempts to participate
multiple times, or with multiple identities, and/or addresses will be disqualified. Any attempt by
any person to undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes may be a violation of
criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, the Sponsor and Administrator each
reserve the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law.

unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, changes to the Instagram platform that are
not acceptable to Sponsor or Administrator, or any other causes beyond the control of the Sponsor

sole discretion to cancel, modify, suspend or terminate the Sweepstakes in whole or in part. In
the event Administrator experiences a technical failure during admission of the Sweepstakes that
causes the Sweepstakes or a specific Sweepstakes to be suspended, Administrator shall select
a winner(s) by random drawing from all valid entries received in the Sweepstakes up to the point
of the technical failure. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AS A CONDITION
