This Food4Thought (F4T) Giveaway promotion (the “Promotion”) is organized by Next Gen Foods, Inc. (“TiNDLE”). This Promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed and/or administered by any owners or operators of any social media forums where TiNDLE advertises or promotes this Promotion or by the owners or brands reflected in the Prize. The Promotion is subject to these Promotion rules (“Official Rules”) and a person entering the Promotion (an “Entrant”) agrees to be bound by the Official Rules and agrees that the decisions of TiNDLE shall be final in all matters related to the Promotion.

ELIGIBILITY: Promotion is open only to natural persons who are legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia (the “Specified Jurisdiction”).

Entrants must have a valid e-mail address and a physical address within the Specified Jurisdiction, and as of the date of their Entry into the Promotion must be eighteen (18) years of age or older (age must be verified prior to any prize being awarded). Employees of TiNDLE and its affiliates, licensees, successors, and assigns, and those acting under their authority as well as members of such employees’ immediate families (spouses, children, siblings, parents) or households (whether or not related), are not eligible to participate in the Promotion.

ELIGIBLE ENTRANTS MUST ENTER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE OFFICIAL RULES. NO OTHER METHOD OF SUBMISSION WILL BE ACCEPTED. Participation in the Promotion constitutes Entrant’s understanding of, full and unconditional agreement to, and acceptance of these Official Rules.

HOW TO ENTER: During the Promotion Period, Entrant may submit an “Entry” in one of two (2) ways (the “Entry Process”):

Limit one Entry per Entrant. TiNDLE’s database clock will be the official timekeeper for this Promotion.

Use of any software or other device to automate an Entry or subvert the Entry Process is prohibited, and all Entries submitted through such devices are void. Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than one Entry by using multiple/different e-mail addresses, identities, registrations, log-ins or any other methods will void that Entrant’s Entries and Entrant may be disqualified. Any Entrant found to use multiple accounts to enter will be ineligible. TiNDLE reserves sole discretion to disqualify any Entry.

ODDS: The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received during the Promotion Period. TiNDLE cannot accurately predict the number of Entrants who will participate in the Promotion.

WINNER SELECTION & PRIZES: A total of one (1) winner (a “Winner”) will be selected by random drawing from all eligible Entries to receive a prize.

The Winner will receive four retail bags of TiNDLE products from PlantX (“Prize”).

The prize will be shipped to an address of the Winner’s choosing at our cost. We are not responsible for any lost or stolen items once the prize is shipped to the Winner.

Total estimated retail value of the Prize: $100

Prize has no cash value. No substitutions or transfers of Prize or cash redemptions are permitted, but TiNDLE reserves the right in its sole discretion to substitute prizes of comparable value if Prize is unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason. Prize is nontransferable, nonassignable and not returnable. No portion of Prize may be sold, bartered, or exchanged.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL WINNERS AND VERIFICATION: On or about Monday, April 15th at 3:00pm EST, TiNDLE will notify the Winner through direct messaging in Instagram or email, depending upon how they entered the Promotion, that they have potentially won a Prize. A Potential Winner will have seven (7) days to respond to TiNDLE’s notification, provide Winner’s e-mail address and verify eligibility (the “Eligibility Verification Process”); otherwise, another Winner may be selected. Except where legally prohibited, to complete the Eligibility Verification Process each potential Winner may be required to sign and return, within seven (7) days of being notified, a Declaration of Eligibility; Liability & Publicity Release to claim the Prize.

Receiving the Prize is contingent upon compliance with these Official Rules. The Winner is subject to verification by TiNDLE. An Entrant is not a Winner of any Prize, even if the notification should so indicate, unless and until an Entrant who is a Winner has been verified and Entrant has been notified that verification is complete.

Once a Winner receives his or her Prize from TiNDLE, TiNDLE is not responsible for reimbursing such Winner for any theft, destruction, manipulation, or loss associated with his or her Prize.
