Officers and directors of Sponsor, Atkins Nutritionals, Inc., and their respective parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising, promotion agencies (all such individuals and entities collectively referred to herein as the “Sweepstakes Entities”) and the immediate family members and/or those living in the same household of each are not eligible to participate in the Sweepstakes or win a prize. Void where prohibited. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein.  Each entrant acknowledges that the Sweepstakes is not sponsored or administered by Facebook.
  1. How to Enter: During the Sweepstakes Period, eligible entrants may enter by liking the designated post on the @AtkinsNuritionals Facebook account (the “Post”), following the @AtkinsNuritionals Facebook account, and tagging friends, one per comment, in the comment section of the Post and including the hashtag #sweeps in their comment. Likes, follows, and commenting must occur during the Sweepstakes Period. For purposes of the Sweepstakes, “receipt” of an Entry occurs when an entrant posts a comment on the Post (collectively an “Entry”).  Each Entry must comply with the “Entry Requirements” set forth below.

    Limit one (1) Entry per person and/or Account. All Entries must be received by the end of the Sweepstakes Period in order to participate.  Sponsor’s database clock will be the official timekeeper for this Sweepstakes.  Enter using only an Account subscribed and registered in the entrant’s name. If an entrant submits more than the stated number of entries, only the first Entry will be considered and, in the case of multiple entries, entrant may, at the sole discretion of Sponsor, be disqualified from the sweepstakes. In the event of a dispute about entries submitted by multiple individuals using the same Facebook Account, the Entry will be deemed to have been submitted by the authorized subscriber of the Facebook account used to enter the Sweepstakes at the actual time of Entry. The authorized Facebook Account subscriber is deemed to be the natural person who is assigned an email address by an Internet-access provider, online-service provider, or other organization that is responsible for assigning email addresses used to create the Facebook Account. Entries generated through a third-party sweepstakes club site or similar method, or those generated by script, macro, robotic, programmed, or any other automated means are prohibited and will be disqualified. Any information you provide in connection with the Sweepstakes may be used in accordance with Sponsor’s Privacy Policy.
