(“Sponsor”).  The Sweepstakes shall be subject to these Official Rules (as defined below), and by entering, all participants agree to be bound by the terms and conditions herein and the decisions of Sponsor, including the interpretation of these Official Rules and its exercise and discretion which will be final and binding in all respects.

Within one (1) week from the close of the Sweepstakes Period, the recipient of a winning entry will be selected and notified via e-mail. Entries received after the close of the Sweepstakes Period will be deemed ineligible to win. Sponsor’s computer is the official time-keeping device for this Sweepstakes.

2.    ELIGIBILITY. The Sweepstakes is open to those natural persons who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry and who have a primary residence in and are legal residents of California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee or Texas (“Eligibility Area”) throughout the Sweepstakes Period (“Eligible Persons”). Employees of Sponsor, and their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and their immediate family members (spouse, parents, step-parents, children, step-children, siblings, step-siblings, grandparents and their respective spouses, and individuals residing in such immediate family members’ household) are ineligible to enter and win. Void where prohibited by law, regulation or ordinance. By participating in this Sweepstakes, participants agree to be fully bound by these Official Rules and Sponsor’s Privacy Policy (together, the “Official Rules”) and warrant that you meet the eligibility requirements set forth herein. In addition, you agree to accept the decisions of Sponsor, as final and binding as it relates to the content. The Sweepstakes is subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws.

3.    HOW TO ENTER. There are two (2) methods of entry for this Sweepstakes:

1. AUTOMATIC ENTRY: During the Sweepstakes Period, any Eligible Person may enter to win automatically by submitting an online cookie order at a participating Sponsor store location located within the Eligibility Area (each a “Participating Store” and collectively, the “Participating Stores”) either through the Tiff’s Treats mobile app or through the Tiff’s Treats website online ordering landing page, located at https://www.cookiedelivery.com/OnlineOrdering/Start/Orders/NewOrder/Delivery (each, an “Automatic Entry”).

2. ALTERNATE METHOD OF ENTRY:  During the Sweepstakes Period, an Eligible Person may enter to win by using the alternate method of entry, no purchase necessary, by mailing an envelope to Tiff’s Treats RBD, Inc., 8310-1 N. Capital of Texas Highway, Suite 110, Austin, Texas 78731, including the following personal information: (i) first and last name; (ii) e-mail address; (iii) telephone number; and (iv) delivery address (each, an “AMOE”).

An “Entrant” is any Eligible Person who enters to win via Automatic Entry or AMOE. Automatic Entry and AMOE may collectively be referred to herein as “Entry” or “Entries”. Automatic Entry requirements and AMOE requirements may be collectively referred to herein as the “Entry Requirements”.  No other method of Entry will be accepted. All forms of Entry close at the end of the Sweepstakes Period. Limit of one (1) Entry per person, regardless of method of Entry. Additional Entries beyond the specified limit will be void.

The Entry must fulfill all Entry Requirements, as specified, to be eligible to win a Prize (as defined below). Automatic Entries may be disqualified at the sole discretion of Sponsor if the purchase payment is fraudulent, if the payment fails to process, or if the payment is unsuccessful for any reason. AMOEs that are not complete or do not adhere to the Official Rules or specifications may be disqualified at the sole discretion of Sponsor. If you use fraudulent methods or otherwise attempt to circumvent the Official Rules, your submission may be removed from eligibility at the sole discretion of Sponsor. All information provided by Entrant must be complete, true and correct. All Entries become the exclusive property of Sponsor and will not be returned.

Any incomplete or unintelligible AMOEs will not be processed. The use of robotic, automatic, macro, programmed, or like methods (including without limitation the use of any promotion/sweepstakes subscription, notification entry or like sites or services that offers sweepstakes entry services “on behalf of” Entrant) is strictly prohibited. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible or misdirected AMOEs, which will be disqualified and destroyed.

If a dispute arises over the identity of the person who claims an identified e-mail address, the Authorized Account Holder of the e-mail address at time of Automatic Entry or AMOE will be deemed to be the Entrant. The “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person assigned to an e-mail address by an internet access provider, online provider or other organization (e.g., business, education institution, etc.) responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the submitted e-mail address. Any potential winner may be required to show proof of being the Authorized Account Holder. Any Entrant who enters via Automatic Entry is considered the owner of that Entry. The intended recipient of an Automatic Entry purchase, if not the Entrant, is not the owner of the Entry. No transfer of ownership of an Entry is permitted. No Entries will be accepted from or on behalf of, corporations, trusts, partnerships, or other entities; an Entry must be from and on behalf of a natural person.

4.    YOUR USE OF A MOBILE DEVICE. If an Entrant is participating in the Sweepstakes via a mobile device, message and data rates may apply. Entrant should consult his or her wireless service provider regarding its pricing plans. Participation may not be available on all mobile devices, as not all mobile devices or cellular telephone providers have the capabilities or carry the service necessary to participate in the stated methods of entry. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

5.    PRIZES, WINNER SELECTION, NOTIFICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. The potential winner will be selected and notified by Sponsor on or around July 5, 2024. One (1) winner will be selected by Sponsor at random from all eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period, including all Automatic Entries and AMOEs (the “Winner”). The Winner will receive a free delivery of a limited edition bundle from a Participating Store, containing one (1) dozen warm Tiff’s Treats cookies and one (1) certified 1-ounce 24k Gold Bar made of 99.9% pure gold (the “Prize”).

The total value of the Prize as of April 30, 2024 was $2,817.00. The actual value of the Prize may vary depending on the recognized price of gold bullion at the time the Prize is delivered. The price of gold bullion fluctuates constantly; therefore, the actual value of the Prize awarded may be lower or higher at the time it is fulfilled and any difference will not be awarded.

The odds of winning a Prize depend on and will be determined by the total number of eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period, as represented by the total number of eligible Entries submitted during the Sweepstakes Period, including all Automatic Entries and AMOEs, which comply with these Official Rules at the time the Sweepstakes Period ends and complying with the Entry Requirements.
The Winners will be selected and notified by Sponsor via e-mail on or about a week following the end date of the Sweepstakes Period, with additional instructions to claim their respective Prize. Sponsor shall have no liability for any Winner’s failure to receive notices due to Winner’s spam, junk e-mail or other security settings or for any Winner’s provision of incorrect or otherwise non-functioning contact information. The Winner must claim their Prize within three (3) days of e-mail notification or such Winner’s Prize shall be deemed forfeited entirely.

No cash or other Prize substitution permitted except at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Any Prize is non-transferable. Any Winner is solely responsible for all federal, state and local taxes and other costs pertaining to the awarded Prize, if applicable. Any person winning over $600 in prizes during any one-year period will receive an IRS Form 1099 at the end of the calendar year, and a copy of such form will be filed with the IRS. 

Any Winner agrees to allow Sponsor or anyone acting on Sponsor’s behalf, or its respective licensees, successors and assigns will have the right, where permitted by law, without any further notice, review or consent, to use the Winner’s name, portrait, picture, voice, likeness, image or statements about the Sweepstakes, and biographical information (whether in print publication, online, or other means of communication), without compensation, for any purpose, including without limitation, as news, publicity or information for trade, advertising, public relations and promotional purposes, and to notify the public of their winnings, and Sponsor reserves the right to use the aforementioned information or materials in perpetuity, unless and to the extent prohibited by law. Sponsor is not obligated to use any of the above-mentioned information or materials, but Sponsor may use and edit such information or materials, at Sponsor’s sole discretion, without further obligation or compensation.  The Winner will be required to accept their Prize and may be required to execute and return a Confirmation of Eligibility and Publicity Release to verify certain personal information (such as name, age, birth date, and address) and eligibility to win, within three (3) days of the Winner notification date.  Failure to respond to the Winner notification as detailed above or return all required forms within the stated time period, or to comply with any other provision herein, may result in such Winner being disqualified and an alternate Winner may be selected at Sponsor’s sole discretion.

The receipt by any Winner of any Prize offered in this Sweepstakes is conditioned upon compliance with any and all federal and state laws and regulations. ANY VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS BY ANY WINNER (AT SPONSOR’S SOLE DISCRETION) WILL RESULT IN SUCH WINNER’S DISQUALIFICATION AS A WINNER OF THE GIVEAWAY AND ALL PRIVILEGES AS A WINNER WILL BE IMMEDIATELY TERMINATED.

PRIZES ARE AWARDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE), AND THE RELEASED PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE GIVEAWAY OR PRIZES.

6.    TECHNOLOGY. If, for any reason, Sponsor is unable to conduct this Sweepstakes as planned due to technical failures, such as those caused by a computer virus, hacking, tampering, other unauthorized interference, technical failure, fraud, or any other cause beyond the control of Sponsor which obstructs or otherwise adversely affects the proper administration, reliability, security, fairness, or integrity of the Sweepstakes, Sponsor reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to disqualify any Entry, and to disqualify any person found to have interfered or tampered with the Sweepstakes, and if deemed necessary by Sponsor in its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the Sweepstakes. Sponsor may also, in its sole discretion, award any Prize from all eligible, non-suspect entries received as of the date of such action. Sponsor does not assume any responsibility for any failure in transmission, however caused, including any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications line failure, theft or destruction of information, or unauthorized access to entries, including damage or alteration. Sponsor is not responsible for any problems or technical malfunction of any telephone network, telephone lines, computer on-line systems, servers, providers, hardware, software, or failure to receive any e-mail or Entry due to software failure, technical problems, human error or transmission congestion on the Internet or at any website, lost or unavailable network connections, fraud, incomplete, garbled or delayed transmissions, or any combination thereof, including (i) any injury or damage to an Entrant’s, or any other person’s, electronic device or devices relating to or resulting from participation in this Sweepstakes or downloading of any materials relating to this Sweepstakes, or (ii) any restriction or impedance on your ability to participate in the Sweepstakes.
