The below terms and conditions (these “**Terms**”) govern your Submission and your participation in the Program. All Submissions must meet the following criteria:

+- Submissions (including your personal contact details) must be true, accurate, original, non-infringing and not in violation of any third-party rights (including, by way of example and not limitation, the rights of privacy and publicity), exclusively created, and owned by you, and you must have all rights necessary to submit the Submission.
+- Submissions may not contain information of any individuals who have not provided their explicit, legally enforceable authorization or any other sensitive information.
+- All Submission materials must be in English or, if not in English, you must provide an English translation of the Submission.
+- Submissions must be received by the Company from 12:00am Eastern Time February 19, 2024 through 11:59pm Eastern Term March 3, 2024.
+- The Company reserves the right to reject any applicant or Submission for any or no reason in its sole discretion and without notice.
+
+## 2. Eligibility.
+
+To participate in a Program, you generally must be 18 years of age or older and reside in the United States or in a jurisdiction where your Submission to the Program does not violate applicable laws or regulations. You may not participate in a Program if you are a resident of a country, state, province or territory where the laws of the United States or local law prohibits participating or receiving a prize in the Program (including, but not limited to, Brazil, Quebec, Russia, Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and any other country designated by the United States Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control). You may not participate if you are an employee, director, officer, or agent of the Company or its affiliates, or are a family member or live in the household of any employee, director, officer, or agent of the Company or its affiliates.
+
+## 3. Selection Process.
+
+Selection of Submissions is at the Company’s sole discretion. The Company’s decisions are final in all matters related to the Program. The Company reserves the right to disqualify Submissions for any reason.

Selected applicants will be required to provide additional information (such as taxpayer, KYC, and payment details), be subject to additional review (such as a background check or identity verification) and accept additional terms regarding the Program, including additional Program participation requirements. You acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to select, post, or use any Submission or to respond to you in any way.

+## 4. Application Period.
+
+The application period for the Program commences and ends on time and date set forth in the applicable Program web page, unless extended by the Company in its sole discretion.
