Purpose. On occasion, Lovevery, Inc. (“Sponsor”, “Lovevery”, “us”, “our”, or “we”) runs giveaways to allow users of Social Media Platforms (as defined below) to win Lovevery products and/or services (“Social Media Giveaways”). These Official Rules for Lovevery Social Media Giveaways (these “Rules”), together with any additional terms included in a Social Media Giveaway advertisement or posting (the “Additional Rules”) and our Terms of Service (the “Terms of Service”), govern our Social Media Giveaways. In the event of any conflict between these various terms, our Social Media Giveaways will be governed in accordance with the following order of precedence: first, the Additional Rules; second, these Rules; and third, the Terms of Service.
By entering any Social Media Giveaway, you fully and unconditionally agree to be bound by these Rules, the Additional Rules, and the Terms of Service and represent that you satisfy all eligibility requirements for the Social Media Giveaway.
Sponsor. The Social Media Giveaways are sponsored by Lovevery. They are not sponsored or administered by any other company (including, without limitation, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, or any other social media platform (each a “Social Media Platform”), which are not associated with and do not endorse our Social Media Giveaways). By entering a Social Media Giveaway, you agree to release all Social Media Platforms on which the applicable Social Media Giveaway appears of any obligation, expectation, claim, or liability of any kind in connection with your Entry (as defined below) or the Social Media Giveaway.
Binding Agreement. As described above, to enter or participate in a Social Media Giveaway and potentially receive a prize, you must fully and unconditionally agree to be bound by these Rules, the Additional Rules, and the Terms of Service. By entering a Social Media Giveaway, you represent that you have read these Rules, the Additional Rules, and the Terms of Service prior to your Entry and that you fully and unconditionally understand and agree to them.
