Entrant further agrees, upon Sponsor’s request and without compensation, to sign any and all necessary and appropriate documents so as to effect, perfect or record such grant of license rights.

    INSTAGRAM COMMENTS/ENTRIES REPRESENT SOLELY THE VIEWS/OPINIONS OF THE APPLICABLE ENTRANT AND DO NOT REFLECT THE VIEWS/OPINIONS OF SPONSOR IN ANY MANNER. SPONSOR IS MERELY REQUESTING PERSONS TO POST COMMENTS TAGGING AT LEAST TWO (2) FRIENDS (AND PERHAPS INCLUDING ACCOMPANYING CONTENT); AND, SPONSOR DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY IN CONJUNCTION WITH SAME, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR MODERATING, MONITORING OR REVIEWING COMMENTS POSTED BY ENTRANTS. SPONSOR WILL NOT EDIT OR MODIFY COMMENTS POSTED FOR THE SWEEPSTAKES IN CONJUNCTION WITH ADMINISTRATION OF THIS SWEEPSTAKES.
  5. Entry Restrictions: Limit one (1) entry per person, family, household or address during the Sweepstakes Period regardless of the number of Instagram accounts that a person has. (But, a person may enter him/herself AND be a tagged friend of one or more other entrants). Violation of this entry limit will result in only the initial entry received being accepted. But, Sponsor reserves the right to void all entries (and disqualify entrant from the Sweepstakes altogether as well as to prohibit such entrant from participating in future promotions offered by Sponsor) if Sponsor determines in its sole discretion that a given person has engaged in egregious, blatant or repeated violations of the entry limit. For clarity, disqualification of an entrant will not affect the ability of other entrant(s) to tag him/her as a friend in their entries. Proof of submission of entry does not constitute proof of receipt of same or proof of entry. Receipt of entry may be acknowledged (including via comment posted by Sponsor on @whiteclaw in response to comment posted by a given individual) but such acknowledgment does not constitute any representation of eligibility for the Sweepstakes nor is it otherwise binding upon Sponsor. Entries generated by script, macro, robotic, programmed or like means are prohibited and will be disqualified. Use of third-party entities (e.g., commercial Sweepstakes services) to enter Sweepstakes on a person's behalf voids entry, will result in disqualification from Sweepstakes and possible prohibition from participating in future promotions offered by Sponsor. In the event of a dispute over the identity of an entrant, entry will be deemed submitted by the Authorized Account Holder of the e-mail account associated with the Instagram account used to enter the Sweepstakes as of date of entry. Authorized Account Holder means the natural person who is assigned to an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, on-line service provider, or other organization that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the e-mail address corresponding to the Instagram account used to participate in the Sweepstakes.

    If participating in the Sweepstakes via mobile device, message and data rates may apply. You may be charged by your wireless carrier for participating in the Sweepstakes by using your mobile device. It is therefore recommended that you consult your wireless carrier’s pricing plan BEFORE participating in the Sweepstakes via your mobile device. Not all mobile devices offer wireless Internet access and wireless Internet access may not be available in all areas.
  6. Prizes: Two Hundred (200) Prizes will be available to be awarded. Each winner will receive one (1) WHITE CLAW Spirits™ branded ice molds. Actual prize may differ from any image of same in Sweepstakes advertising (including the WHITE CLAW Spirits™ Premium Vodka Super Claw™ Ice Mold Sweepstakes post) and Sponsor disclaims any liability in conjunction therewith. In accordance with applicable law, Sponsor will substitute a prize of comparable value if a winner is a resident of the State of Virginia. Approximate Retail Value of each Prize is $7.37 Total Approximate Retail Value of all Prizes is $147.40.

    Alcohol beverages are not part of the prize. A prize will only be awarded to a verified winner with a street address within the 50 United States or the District of Columbia. All costs and expenses associated with a prize acceptance and use that are not specified herein are the sole responsibility of each winner.

  7. Winners Determination/Odds: Winners will be determined in a random drawing on or about December 21, 2023 by VCCP Limited, an independent judging organization, whose decision will be final in all matters relating to this Sweepstakes. Odds of winning will be determined by the total number of eligible entries received. (For the avoidance of doubt, if an entrant’s comment includes comment in addition to tagging two (2) friends, as long as such additional comment is in compliance with these Official Rules [including the Content Restrictions as set forth above, to the extent applicable], such comment will not be taken into account in the winners’ selection procedure.) Potential winners will be notified by direct message from @whiteclaw on or about December 21, 2023. IT IS THE INDIVIDUAL’S RESPONSIBILITY TO ASSURE THAT HIS/HER INSTAGRAM PRIVACY SETTINGS ALLOW FOR @whiteclaw TO NOTIFY HIM/HER VIA DIRECT MESSAGE INCLUDING SETTING YOUR INSTAGRAM PROFILE TO “PUBLIC”.

A potential winner’s response to such notification must be supplemented by valid government-issued photo identification (e.g., driver’s license or passport) and, in such response, a winner must accept and agree to these Official Rules, Release Sponsor, and Sponsor’s advertising and promotions agencies (including VCCP Limited) from liability of any kind; the response will also include a representation that such tagged friends provided his/her consent to said potential winner before being tagged in potential winner’s entry. In the event of noncompliance with this requirement or if a potential winner cannot be contacted for any reason, prize will be forfeited without compensation of any kind. If prize is forfeited by a potential winner, an alternate winner may be selected.
  8. Prize Restrictions: Entry in the Sweepstakes constitutes an entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to abide by and accept the terms and conditions of these Official Rules. No prize substitution or cash redemption except at Sponsor’s sole discretion due to unavailability for any reason and only then for prize of comparable value.

All federal, state and local taxes on a prize are each winner’s sole responsibility. By accepting a prize, a winner waives the right to assert as a cost of winning a prize, any and all costs of redemption or travel to redeem a prize and any and all liability that might arise from redeeming or seeking to redeem a prize. Each winner also accepts sole responsibility for any miscellaneous costs relating to acceptance of a prize.
