The “Diabetes Show and Tell” Sweepstakes

OFFICIAL RULES

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING.

PROMOTION DESCRIPTION: The "Diabetes Show and Tell" Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”) begins on or about September 11, 2017, at 01:11 PM Pacific Time (“PT”) and ends on October 20, 2017, at 11:59 p.m. PT (the “Promotion Period”). At the end of the Promotion Period, a random drawing will be conducted to select up to seventy (70) winners of a Prize from among all eligible entries received during the Promotion Period, as set forth more fully below. Entry in the Sweepstakes does not constitute entry into any other promotion, contest or sweepstakes. By participating in the Sweepstakes, each entrant unconditionally accepts and agrees to comply with and abide by these Official Rules and the decisions of Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc., 11045 Roselle St., San Diego, CA 92121 (“Sponsor”), which shall be final and binding in all respects.  This Sweepstakes is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google, or Instagram.

ELIGIBILITY: Only U.S. residents of the forty-eight (48) contiguous United States and District of Columbia thirteen (13) years of age or above at the time of entry are eligible to enter. U.S. residents between the ages of thirteen (13) years of age and seventeen (17) years of age must have their entry submitted by a parent or legal guardian. Consent from winners’ educational institution must be obtained to be eligible for a prize.  Officers, directors and employees of Sponsor, or any of its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, distributors, retailers, sales representatives, advertising and promotion agencies (all such individuals and entities collectively referred to herein as the “Promotion  Entities”), and the immediate family members and/or those residing in the same household of each are ineligible to enter the Sweepstakes or win a prize. Further, contestants receiving insurance benefits under Medicare, Medicaid or any government (public insurance) programs are ineligible. This Sweepstakes is void where prohibited.

HOW TO ENTER: To enter, visit https://www.tandemdiabetes.com/community/blog/post/tsliminthewild-diabetes-show-and-tell and review the Photo Submission Guidelines and Privacy Policy, then, using a social media account you personally manage and have permission to use, post a photo of yourself with a back-to-school theme, and include the text “#tsliminthewild” during the Promotion Period. Each customer will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes, per approved social platform. The approved social platforms are limited to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google, or Instagram. Limit one (1) entry per person, per approved social platform. All entries must be received by the end of the Promotion Period in order to participate. Sponsor or its Vendor will be the official time keeper for this Sweepstakes.  The winners will be selected from all eligible entries received through the permitted methods above during the Promotion Period. Although subsequent entries may be received, only entrant’s first entry during the Promotion Period will count. Any individual who attempts or otherwise encourages, directly or indirectly, the entry of multiple or false entries, as determined by the Sponsor, will be disqualified. All entries become the property of Sponsor, and none will be acknowledged or returned. Sponsor may use your personally identifiable information as provided herein, to contact you for promotional and other purposes, and in accordance with its online privacy policy, located at https://www.tandemdiabetes.com/privacy-policy. Any communication or information transmitted to Sponsor (through the Website or Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Google or Twitter) by electronic mail or otherwise is and will be treated as non- confidential and nonproprietary. Entrants who enter via Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Google, and Twitter are providing information to Sponsor and not to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Google, and Twitter.

WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION: Within approximately 10 days after the end of the Promotion Period, seventy (70) Prize winners - One per pre-determined geographic Sponsor sales territory - will be randomly selected in a drawing from all eligible entries received throughout the Promotion Period. If Sponsor receives no entries for a given geographic Sponsor sales territory, then no prize will be awarded in the territory and the maximum number of total prizes will be reduced accordingly. The drawing for the Prizes will be conducted by Sponsor or its designee, using randomization methods selected by Sponsor in its sole discretion. The potential winners will be notified within 30 days after the end of the Promotion Period by telephone and/or mail and/or e- mail using the contact information available at the time of entry for the applicable social platform on which the winning entry was submitted. Sponsor shall have no liability if any elements of any prize or winner notification is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential winner does not respond within the time required by Sponsor, or if the prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner will forfeit his or her prize and an alternate winner may be selected. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected.
