OPEN TO LEGAL RESIDENTS OF THE 50 UNITED
STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, 18 YEARS AND OLDER.
The Sweepstakes is no way sponsored, endorsed,

1. TO ENTER: OREO Sphere 2.0
Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”), sponsored by Mondelēz Global LLC
(“Sponsor”), begins at approximately 12:00 p.m. ET on August 6, 2024 and ends at 11:59 p.m. ET on September 2, 2024 (the
“Sweepstakes Period”).
During
the Sweepstakes Period, an eligible entrant who is logged in to their Facebook
or Instagram account may be presented with a Facebook or
Instagram sponsored post or Story prompting the entrant to enter the
Sweepstakes (the “Ad”). Sponsor will determine Ad placement in its sole
discretion. Accordingly, only select Facebook and Instagram users will see the
Ad. To enter, click on the in-Ad “Sign Up” button and provide all of the
required information: full (first and last) name, a valid email address, your
acknowledgement that you are at least eighteen years of age and agree to these
Official Rules, and your guess as to the number of OREO cookies depicted on the
Sphere in the image on the Ad. Note: Your guess is for fun only and will NOT
impact whether or not you receive an entry. Upon completion and submission
of the registration form, you will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes.
In addition to the Sponsor’s privacy policy, as outlined in Section 9 of these
Official Rules, entries through the Ad are also subject to Meta’s Privacy
Policy found at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/ and https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy/.
Entry Limit: You may only receive
one (1) entry during the Sweepstakes Period regardless of whether you receive
more than one (1) invitation to enter. Use of any robotic, automatic,
programmed or similar entry method will void your entry and result in
disqualification. Any attempt by any individual to exceed the above-indicated
entry limit by using multiple/different e-mail or IP addresses, Facebook or
Instagram accounts, identities, physical addresses or any other methods will
void all of that individual's entries and that
individual will be disqualified. In
the event of a dispute as to the identity of an entrant, Sponsor and Administrator
will rely on the information submitted by the entrant to register for this
Sweepstakes. If additional information provided by entrant to claim the prize
(including but not limited to your first and last name) is inconsistent with
the information provided at registration, Sponsor
and/or Administrator may disqualify such entrant and such disqualification will
result in the forfeiture of any prize such entrant may claim (if applicable).
Sponsor, in its discretion, may request additional documentation from entrant
to confirm entrant’s identity. Failure to comply will result in
disqualification.

3. SWEEPSTAKES DRAWING AND WINNER REQUIREMENTS: Administrator
is an independent organization whose decisions are final and binding in all
matters related to the Sweepstakes, including but not limited to those related
to the selection of the potential winners. Administrator will select one
hundred (100) potential Grand Prize winners in a random drawing from all
eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period on or around September
9, 2024. Potential winners will be notified by email
from Administrator and will be required to provide their name, home mailing
address (P.O. Boxes not permitted) and date of birth within four (4) days of
the date notice or attempted notice is sent, in order to claim a prize. If a potential winner
cannot be contacted,
or a prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, or if a potential Grand Prize winner fails to
provide any requested information within the required time period, or if
a potential winner is deemed
ineligible to receive the prize for any reason, the applicable prize will be
forfeited and may be awarded to an
alternate winner in a random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries.
If necessary, this process will be repeated up to three (3) times, after which
the prize will not be awarded if it is unclaimed in accordance with these
Official Rules.
Odds of winning a prize will depend on the
number of eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period. Receiving a prize is contingent upon compliance
with these Official Rules.

6. GENERAL RULES: By entering the
Sweepstakes, entrants (and their parents/legal guardians if entrants are
Minors) accept and agree to these Official Rules and the decisions of the
Administrator. Sponsor reserves the right to cancel, suspend and/or modify the
Sweepstakes, if any fraud, technical failures, human error, or any other factor
impairs the integrity or proper functioning of the Sweepstakes, or any event or
cause beyond Sponsor’s control (e.g. events such as natural calamities,
national emergencies, wide spread illnesses, declarations of war, acts of God,
acts of terrorism) interferes with any aspect of the Sweepstakes, including but
not limited to fulfillment of the prize(s), as determined by Sponsor in its
sole discretion. In such event, Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may elect to
hold a random drawing from among all eligible entries received up to the date
of discontinuance to award the Grand Prizes. Sponsor reserves the right, in its
sole discretion, to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the
entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes, including but, not limited
to submitting fraudulent entries, or to be acting in violation of the Official
Rules of this or any other promotion offered by Sponsor or in an
unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately
undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes may be a violation of
criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be
made, Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest
extent permitted by law. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these
Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision. In no event
will more prizes than are stated in these Official Rules be awarded. If, for
any reason, more prize notifications are sent (or more claims are received)
than the number of prizes offered, as set forth in these Official Rules,
Sponsor reserves the right to award the intended number of prizes through a
random drawing from among all eligible prize notifications/claims received. In
the event there is a discrepancy or inconsistency between disclosures or other
statements contained in any Sweepstakes-related materials or notifications and
these Official Rules, these Official Rules shall prevail, govern and control.
7. Limitations
of Liability:
The Released Parties are not responsible for: (a) any incorrect or inaccurate
information either caused by printing errors or by any of the equipment or
programming associated with or utilized in the Sweepstakes or provided by

malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections to the internet, in phone lines,
social media platforms, or network hardware or software; (c) unauthorized human
intervention in any part of the Sweepstakes, including but not limited to the
entry process; (d) technical or human error which may occur in the
administration of the Sweepstakes, including but not limited to the processing
of entries; (e) late, lost, undeliverable, damaged or stolen mail; or (f) lost,
late, unreceived, damaged, incomplete, invalid, un-intelligible, garbled,
delayed or misdirected entries or failure to receive entries due to limitation
of third-party social network platforms. If for any reason an entrant's entry
is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or
corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy is another entry in the Sweepstakes, if it is
possible.
8. WAIVER AND DISPUTES: Except where prohibited, each entrant (and
their parent/legal guardian if the entrant is a Minor) agrees that: (a) any and
all disputes, claims and causes of action arising out of or connected with this

DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS

interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and
obligations of the entrant (and their parent/legal guardian if the
entrant is a Minor) and
Sponsor in connection with the Sweepstakes, shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Michigan without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of Michigan or
any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Michigan. Furthermore, EACH entrant (AND THEIR PARENT/LEGAL GUARDIAN IF
ENTRANT IS A MINOR) and each of the Promotion Parties hereby waive, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right THEY may have to a
trial by jury in respect of any claim or dispute arising from or relating to
the Sweepstakes or these Official Rules.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of these Official Rules shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision. In the event that
any provision is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable or
illegal, these Official Rules shall otherwise remain in effect and shall be
construed as if the invalid or illegal provision were not contained herein.
