materials submitted to it from outside sources or being developed by its own employees
and that such ideas/stories/literary/artistic materials may be competitive with, similar to

entry (i.e., post the comment), as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will
be deemed to be the entrant. Sponsor is not responsible for late, lost,
illegible/garbled, inaccessible, corrupted, damaged or misdirected entries, all of

about June 7, 2019. To the extent applicable, the content of an entrant's comment
will not be taken into account in the winner selection procedure, provided that the

requirements in Rule 2 above. The winner will be notified via direct message on or
after date of random drawing and may be required to sign and return an Affidavit of
Eligibility, a Liability Release and a Publicity Release (where legal), all within (3)
business days. If winner cannot be contacted for any reason (including due to

timely sign/return Affidavit/Release (if applicable), the Grand Prize will be forfeited. If
Grand Prize is forfeited, an alternate winner will be selected from among all

6. CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION. For details regarding the collection/use of your


personal information in conjunction with the Sweepstakes, please review Sponsor’s
privacy policy at www.eaglecreek.com/customer-service/privacy-policy.html. By
accepting the prize, where legal, winner agrees to the use of his/her name and image
for advertising/trade/publicity purposes by Sponsor and its designees without further
compensation or notice. By participating, entrant releases and agrees to hold harmless
Sponsor, its parent company, affiliates, subsidiaries, and their respective directors,
officers, employees and agents of any of the above organizations, as well as Twitter,
Inc. and Facebook, Inc./Instagram, from any and all liability arising from the
Sweepstakes or the receipt, acceptance, use or misuse of prize. If Sweepstakes cannot
be conducted as originally planned due to any cause beyond Sponsor’s control (e.g.,
computer virus, act of fraud, natural disaster), Sponsor may cancel/suspend/modify
Sweepstakes and pick the winner from among all eligible entries received prior to and/or
after action taken by Sponsor or otherwise in any manner determined by Sponsor in its
sole discretion to be fair, appropriate and consistent with these Official Rules; notice of
such action by Sponsor will be posted on the Eagle Creek Twitter page. Tampering with
Sweepstakes or violation of Rules will result in disqualification; but, disqualification shall
not represent the sole remedy available to Sponsor. (By way of example only, tampering
includes use of programmed or automated methods of Sweepstakes entry; posting a
comment that violates the rights of tagged friend or any other third party or otherwise is
not in compliance with the content guidelines in Rule 2 above [to the extent applicable],
and/or violation of the entry limit). Sponsor’s failure to enforce any provision of these
Official Rules is NOT a waiver of such provision. Any dispute or claim regarding the
Sweepstakes will be resolved pursuant to internal, substantive law of California. Any
such dispute/claim must be brought individually (NOT as part of a class action) in U.S.
federal or state court in San Diego County, California, with recovery being limited to
one’s actual costs in participating in the Sweepstakes (if any) with all damages or other
forms of recovery being expressly waived. If any provision of these Official Rules is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it
shall be replaced by a substitute provision that most closely approximates the original
intent of Sponsor and is valid, legal and enforceable. The
invalidity/illegality/unenforceability of a given provision shall not affect the remainder of
these Official Rules.
