The Sweepstakes Period will be comprised of three (3) separate and distinct entry periods (each, an “Entry Period” and collectively, “Entry Periods”) as set forth in the chart below. No entries will be accepted after April 10, 2024 at 11:59 P.M. ET. Sponsor’s computer is the official time-keeping device for the Sweepstakes.

HOW TO ENTER: During the Sweepstakes Period, there are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes:

Method #1 – Take an Uber Trip: Open the Uber app, and request a ride and take an eligible trip (as defined below) using promo code HEAT2024 (enter in the “Payment” section of the app) to receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes. In order to receive an entry via this method, a trip must have been successfully completed on the Uber platform during the Sweepstakes Period. A trip is successfully completed when a passenger arrives at their location (canceled trips are not eligible) within the Miami, FL area during the Sweepstakes Period (an “Eligible Trip”). (The length of the trip will not affect one’s ability to enter the Sweepstakes provided that it has been successfully completed.) To be entered for a chance to win the prize (“Prize”) available for a given Entry Period, the trip must have been successfully completed during that Entry Period (as defined in Rule 2 above). Should a trip occur over two (2) days, the entry will count only for the day in which the trip was successfully completed. To enter the Sweepstakes by this method, an Uber account is required, and can be obtained at no cost at uber.com or by downloading the app from the appropriate app store. Sweepstakes entries through this method shall be valid only on rides requested and completed on the Uber app. Taking multiple trips on the Uber platform will not increase your chances of winning.

Method #2 – Free Alternate Method of Entry Form (“AMOE”): To enter the Sweepstakes without taking a trip or ordering delivery, visit https://forms.gle/Wr7gLzBXEoknQqa97. Complete the entry form in its entirety including your full name, phone number, and email address (associated with your Uber account) and check the box acknowledging that you have read and agree to these Official Rules. Click the “Submit” button on the website to receive one (1) entry. Proof of entering information at the website is not considered proof of delivery to or receipt by Sponsor of such entry. Receipt of entry may be acknowledged but such acknowledgment does not constitute a representation by Sponsor as to eligibility of entry. To be entered for a chance to win the Prize available for a given Entry Period, the completed entry form must have been received during that Entry Period (as defined in Rule 2 above).

Limit one (1) entry per individual, per email address and/or Uber account per Entry Period. Maximum three (3) entries throughout the Sweepstakes Period.

All entries must be received no later than the end of the Entry Period (subject to the daily entry deadlines set forth above) to be considered. Multiple Entrants are not permitted to share the same email address or Uber account. Any entries that result from or are associated with unlawful behavior will be disqualified from the Sweepstakes. Uber/Administrator in their sole discretion will decide whether a given entry satisfies the criteria for entry in the Sweepstakes. Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, accounts, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that Entrant’s entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. Such actions may also result in the imposition of disciplinary sanctions as per Uber’s company policies. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any Entrant, the authorized account holder of the email address associated with the driver account used for entry (for entries made via Method #1) or the authorized account holder of the email address listed on the entry form (for entries made via Method #2), as applicable, will be deemed to be the Entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the entry. Each potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. Uber will make the final determination of identity of Entrants in its sole discretion. All entries submitted 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.

Message and data rates may apply to use of mobile device for entry. Be sure to check your wireless carrier’s pricing plan before participating. Wireless internet access may not be available in all areas.

RANDOM DRAWINGS/SELECTION OF WINNERS/ODDS: Potential winners will be randomly selected from among all Eligible Entries received for each given Entry Period on or about the dates stated in the table in Section 2 above. All non-winning eligible entries from each Weekly Entry Period will not be carried over into the remaining Entry Period drawings, as applicable.

Odds of winning depend on the number of Eligible Entries received for the applicable Entry Period.

All random drawings will be conducted by Administrator, an independent judging organization/administrator whose decisions are final and binding on all matters related to the Sweepstakes.

WINNER NOTIFICATION: Potential winners will be notified by Sponsor via e-mail (if potential winner entered via Uber, via the e-mail currently on file with Sponsor for the corresponding Uber account; if potential winner enters via AMOE, via the e-mail provided on the entry form) and/or in-app notification (each a “Notification”) on or about the applicable drawing date. Sponsor and Sweepstakes Entities disclaim any liability due to Notification not being timely received (or received at all) by potential winner regardless of cause. The Notification may request that the potential winner provide the Sponsor with specific personal information (e.g., full name, e-mail address associated with their Uber account and ticketing app email [if applicable]). Failure to respond to the Notification within forty-eight (48) hours after transmission to the potential winner or return of the e-mail notification as undeliverable after two (2) attempts may result in disqualification and award of the Prize to an alternate winner (time permitting). If Sponsor is not able to contact the potential winner or if the potential winner doesn’t not reply to the email within the forty-eight (48) hour period, it may result in disqualification and the Prize will be awarded to an alternate winner (time permitting). Potential winners will have the option to decline the Prize for any reason whatsoever, in which case such potential winner will be disqualified and the prize will be awarded to an alternate winner (time permitting). If Notification is returned as non-deliverable, if potential winner is found to be ineligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules, or if potential winner does not accept the Prize for any reason, Prize will be forfeited and potential winner may be disqualified. If a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, an alternate potential winner will be selected from among all remaining eligible entries received for the applicable drawing (time permitting).

Provided that each potential winner is in compliance with the Official Rules and after having successfully proven eligibility, they will be officially confirmed as a winner (“Winner”, collectively “Winners”). Uber expressly reserves the right to delay the announcement of the Winners for any reason it deems necessary. By entering or accepting any Prize, Winners allow Uber to use the Winner’s entry, name, photograph, likeness, voice, opinions, Prize information, biographical information, hometown and state/province for publicity and promotional purposes without further compensation or notice where permitted by law. Except where prohibited, participation in the Sweepstakes constitutes an Entrant’s consent to Uber’s use of Entrant’s entry, name, likeness, voice, opinions, biographical information, hometown and state for promotional purposes in any media without payment or consideration or notice.
