CHICAGO UBER EATS REFER-TWO-FRIENDS SWEEPSTAKES OFFICIAL RULES

Uber Technologies, Inc. (“Uber”) is sponsoring the Uber Refer-Two-Friends Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”). The Sweepstakes is subject to these official rules (the “Official Rules”), and by participating, you (“Entrant”) agree to be bound by them and the decisions of Uber, which are final and binding in all respects.
 
NO PURCHASE OR UBER EATS ORDER NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN A PRIZE. A PURCHASE DOES NOT IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.  ODDS OF WINNING WILL DEPEND ON THE TOTAL NUMBER OF ELIGIBLE ENTRIES RECEIVED. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW OR RESTRICTED BY LAW.
1. Eligibility: The Sweepstakes is open only to legal U.S. residents residing within Uber Eats’ Chicago, IL service market areas who are 18 years of age or older. Entrants must meet all  requirements prior to the start of the Sweepstakes Period. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.  Employees, officers and representatives, and the immediate family members of such employees, officers and representatives (i.e., parent, spouse, siblings, children, grandparents, step parents, step children and step siblings, and their respective spouses, and those living in the same household, whether or not related) of Uber or their affiliated companies, parent companies, subsidiaries, participating Sweepstakes promotional partners, advertising and Sweepstakes agencies, webmasters and any company involved in the creation, design, execution, production, or fulfillment of the Sweepstakes (collectively, the “Sweepstakes Entities”) are not eligible to enter. Additionally, individuals who are employed by any local, state or federal government office or agency, elected officials and individuals listed on the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List are not eligible to enter or win. The Sweepstakes is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local rules, laws, and regulations.  
2.  Sweepstakes Period: The Sweepstakes begins at or about  12:00:00 p.m. Pacific Time (“PT”) on March 11, 2020 and ends at 11:59:00 p.m. PT on April 8, 2020 (the “Sweepstakes Period”).  Uber’s computer is the official timekeeping device for entry in the Sweepstakes. 
3. How To Enter: During the Sweepstakes Period, there are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes:
Uber Eats App Referral:  Open the Uber Eats app (“Uber Eats App”), select “Account”, click on “Get $20 off your order” to see personal referral code, follow the instructions and share personal referral code with a friend in the Chicago, IL area. Repeat, in order to refer two (2) friends to the Uber Eats App. Entrant (“referrer”) will automatically receive one (1) entry for two (2) successful referrals (as defined below) who place their first order on the Uber Eats app in the Chicago, IL metropolitan area by or before April 8, 2020. All submitted referrals must (1) enter the Entrant’s Uber Eats personal (referral) invite code during signup or sign up through the unique link they receive from Entrant’s referral invitation, (2) not have previously signed up with Uber Eats prior to referral, and (3) place an order on Uber Eats in the Chicago metropolitan area by April 8, 2020 (a “Successful Referral”). An Uber Eats account is required, and can be obtained at no cost at uber.com or by downloading the app from the appropriate app store. Data and usage rates may apply. Referral amounts and requirements may vary if Entrant’s referee signs up in a different city. This offer replaces any referral amounts Uber has previously offered. For the avoidance of doubt, Uber reserves the right to withhold or deduct payments if there is belief of an error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of terms. Offer and terms are subject to change at any time. Additional terms apply. See full terms here. Entrants who do not follow all of the instructions, or abide by the Official Rules or other instructions of the Sponsor may be disqualified. 

Free Alternate Method of Entry Form: To enter without completing two (2) Successful Referrals, fill out this form and provide complete name, phone number and email address to receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes. No purchase or Uber Eats order necessary to enter. 
Limit one (1) entry per person, per email address and/or Uber account throughout the Sweepstakes Period, regardless of method of entry. Entries received in excess of this stated limitation will be void. 
All entries must be received no later than the end of the Sweepstakes Period to be considered. When submitting an entry on the website, Entrant is required to provide complete and truthful information. Entries submitted (or automatically received) that are incomplete, illegible, corrupted, false, lost, late or misdirected, deceptive or otherwise not in compliance with the Official Rules may be disqualified from the Sweepstakes at Uber’s sole and absolute discretion. Entries submitted (or automatically received)  by persons who do not meet the eligibility requirements (including all requirements with respect to age and residence) are void. The use of any scripts, computer programs, robotic repetitive, macro, automatic, programmed or similar automated entry methods or agents to submit entries will void all entries submitted by that person or that person’s agents. Uber will disqualify any entry from individuals who do not meet the eligibility requirements. All entries submitted (or automatically received) in compliance with these Official Rules and not disqualified or void are considered “Eligible Entries.” All entries are the property of Uber and will not be acknowledged or returned.
By entering the Sweepstakes, Entrant:  (a) agrees to be bound by these Official Rules and by the interpretation of these Official Rules by Uber and by the decisions of Uber, which are final and binding in all respects; (b) acknowledges compliance with these Official Rules; and (c) agrees to comply with any and all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations. Winning the Prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth in these Official Rules.
3.  Prize: One (1) Winner (as defined below) will receive the following prize as outlined below (collectively, the “Prize”):
One (1) Winner (as defined below) will receive the following prize: four (4) $500 digital Uber Gift Cards totaling in the amount of $2,000. Uber Gift Card terms and conditions apply. Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”): $2,000.

Uber credits are subject to the Uber Terms of Service, which are available at https://www.uber.com/legal/en/document/?name=general-terms-of-use&country=united-states&lang=en.  For the avoidance of doubt, although the winner will receive the Uber Credits at no cost as the Prize, the provisions in the Uber Terms of Service regarding “Gift Cards” shall govern to the extent applicable. The use of the digital gift card is subject to the terms and conditions set forth thereon which shall govern the use of the digital gift card. Use of the digital gift card constitutes the user’s acceptance of the terms and conditions which are available at:  https://www.uber.com/legal/en/document/?country=united-states&lang=en&name=uber-gift-cards-terms-of-use. Winner must protect the digital gift card and treat the gift card as he/she would any other valuable document. The digital gift card will not be redeemed or exchanged for cash, except where required by law. The digital gift card will not be replaced or replenished if it is lost, stolen, damaged, destroyed or used without the winner’s permission and will be voided if altered or defaced and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Sweepstakes Entities will have no further obligation to winner.
Uber and the Sweepstakes Entities shall have no responsibility or obligation to a Winner who is unable or unavailable to, or who does not for any reason, accept or utilize a Prize or any portion thereof. Winners agree to comply with any additional terms and conditions applicable to the Prize.  The Prize is provided “as is”; Entrants acknowledge that Uber and the Sweepstakes Entities have neither made nor are in any manner responsible or liable for any warranty, representation or guarantee, express or implied, in fact or in law, relative to the Prize, including any implied warranty of merchantability of fitness for a particular purpose. All costs and expenses not specifically listed above as part of the Prize are solely each Winner’s responsibility, including but not limited to tips and gratuities, and other taxes not otherwise mentioned herein. Any prizes pictured in advertising and other Sweepstakes materials are for illustrative purposes only. All U.S. federal, state and local tax liability, and any other costs and expenses associated with acceptance or use of the Prize not specifically provided for in these Official Rules are solely the responsibility of each Winner (regardless of whether the prize, in whole or in part, is used).  

Uber or their designee shall fulfill the Prize to the Winner. Delivery of Prize may require a street address (no P.O. Boxes), failure to provide the requested information by the time specified by Uber, may result in Winner’s disqualification or forfeiture of the Prize. In the event Uber is unable to provide any portion of a Prize, no additional compensation or substitution will be provided in lieu thereof; and Uber will have no further obligation to Winner. 

If for any reason the Prize is unavailable, Uber reserves the right to modify the Sweepstakes in its sole discretion and award a substitute prize, or portion of prize, of comparable or greater value as set forth in these Official Rules. No substitution, transfer, assignment or cash equivalent of the Prize, or any portion thereof, is permitted by the Winners.  Uber and the Sweepstakes Entities shall have no responsibility or obligation to a Winner who is unable or unavailable to, or who does not for any reason, accept or utilize a Prize or any portion thereof. Winner must comply with any additional terms and conditions applicable to the Prize. The Prize is provided “as is”; Entrants acknowledge that Uber and the Sweepstakes Entities have neither made nor are in any manner responsible or liable for any warranty, representation or guarantee, express or implied, in fact or in law, relative to the Prize, including any implied warranty of merchantability of fitness for a particular purpose.  Any prizes pictured in advertising and other Sweepstakes materials are for illustrative purposes only.
THE VALUE OF THE PRIZE WILL BE TAXABLE TO THE WINNER AS INCOME.  All U.S. federal, state and local tax liability, and any other costs and expenses associated with acceptance or use of the Prize not specifically provided for in these Official Rules are solely the responsibility of the Winner (regardless of whether the prize, in whole or in part, is used). Winner must submit the Taxpayer ID, Social Security Number and/or any other information or documentation Uber may require for payment and/or tax reporting purposes, including but not limited to a W9.
4.  Winner Selection and Notification:  One (1) potential winner will be selected in a random drawing by Uber from all Eligible Entries on or about April 9, 2020. The potential winner will be notified by phone or email (at the phone number or email provided with the entry or associated with each potential winner’s Uber Eats account), and will be required to confirm his/her email address and/or phone number. Details will follow via email.  
Uber shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason.  If a potential winner cannot be reached after a reasonable effort has been exerted and/or fails to respond, provide any requested information, or confirm his/her email address within twenty-four (24) hours (or such other time specified by Uber) from when the initial notification phone call or email is sent, or if the prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner forfeits the Prize, and an alternate potential winner may be selected. Uber, in its sole discretion and time permitting, will attempt to contact up to three (3) potential winners of each Prize in accordance with the above procedure, after which the prize in question may go unawarded if it remains unclaimed. If any potential prize winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules or declines the prize for any reason prior to award, such potential prize winner will be disqualified and an alternate potential winner may be selected.  The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received.
5.  Winner Verification:  The potential winner may be required to prove eligibility, including, without limitation, proof of age, residence, and identity, which may include submitting a copy of a driver’s license, passport or similar government issued identification within twenty-four (24) hours after being notified of being a potential winner.
The potential winner will be required to complete and sign an Affidavit of Eligibility, release of liability, publicity release form (except where prohibited), and a completed IRS W-9 form (if required), and the eligibility of the potential winner will be verified.  Forms must be returned within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt by potential winner. If any potential winner does not complete all forms necessary within the time given and/or in the event of non-compliance by any potential winner, such potential winner shall be disqualified and shall forfeit the prize, and all privileges otherwise due as a potential winner shall be terminated and an alternate potential winner may be selected in a random drawing from among all of the remaining Eligible Entries.
Provided that each potential winner is in compliance with the Official Rules and after having successfully proven eligibility, they will be officially confirmed as the Winner (each, a “Winner”).  Uber expressly reserves the right to delay the announcement of the Winner for any reason it deems necessary. 
Additionally, Uber and the Sweepstakes Entities reserve the right to make a public announcement, announcing the Winner on either the Uber website, through the Uber App, or in any manner (including, without limitation, social media (e.g., Facebook, Twitter)), which they deem appropriate.
6.  Liability Release and Indemnity:  THE PRIZE IS OFFERED AND PROVIDED “AS IS” WITH NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE BY UBER OR ANY SWEEPSTAKES ENTITY, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.  IN NO EVENT WILL UBER OR ANY SWEEPSTAKES ENTITY BE LIABLE TO ENTRANT FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS OR PROFITS) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ENTRANT’S PARTICIPATION IN THE SWEEPSTAKES, WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM ANY CLAIM BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT UBER AND/OR OTHER SWEEPSTAKES ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.

ANY ATTEMPT BY ANY PERSON TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE SWEEPSTAKES MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAW AND SHOULD SUCH AN ATTEMPT BE MADE, UBER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES AND DAMAGES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES) FROM ANY SUCH PERSON TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

Uber’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules will not constitute a waiver of that term or any other provision of these Official Rules. Entrant agrees to waive any rights to claim ambiguity of these Official Rules. Headings are solely for convenience of reference and will not be deemed to affect in any manner the meaning or intent of these Official Rules or any provision hereof.
