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 RIDE WITH UBER IS 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’s service market areas located within the fifty (50) United States (including the District of Columbia) who are (i) Mastercard holders as of the start of the Sweepstakes Period (as defined below); (ii) the direct and intended recipients of an email invitation from Uber to participate in the Sweepstakes; and (iii) are 18 years of age or older. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.

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 09:00 a.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) on August 16, 2021 and ends at 11:59 p.m. ET on September 16, 2021 (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:
1) Take a trip on the Uber platform with Mastercard: Open the Uber app, enter promo code MCGOLF2021 in the “Payment” section of the app, request a ride and take an eligible trip (as defined below) using Mastercard as the method of payment 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 and paid for using your Mastercard (an “Eligible Trip”). 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 platform. Taking multiple trips on the Uber platform will not increase your chances of winning.
2) Free Alternate Method of Entry Form: To enter without making a purchase, complete this https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1yT-gLuJaCsQ1g0BnOIDLQ8SEE5bjZ8dzXk66VAtHuvI/edit form and provide your complete name, phone number and valid email address associated with your Uber account to receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes. 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.
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, regardless of method of entry. When submitting an entry, Entrant is required to provide complete and truthful information. Entries 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 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 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.

Winner and any participating guest will be solely responsible for any equipment including but not limited to golf clubs, necessary to participate in the experience. Uber reserves the right to deny any Winner access to any event or component of the Prize if, in Uber’s sole discretion, the Winner’s behavior or the behavior of such individual’s guest(s) is disruptive, belligerent, abusive, intended to annoy, threaten or harass, or not in the spirit of the Sweepstakes.
Winner and guest must execute liability/publicity releases prior to issuance of any travel documents. In the event that the Winner’s guest is under the age of eighteen (18), as of the execution date on the liability/publicity release, the parent or legal guardian of the minor must execute the liability/publicity release on the minor’s behalf; failure to do so may result in forfeiture of the Prize. The Winner and guest must stay on the same itinerary. Once a travel companion is selected, s/he may not be substituted, except in Uber or their designee’s sole and absolute discretion. Travel is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Sweepstakes. Actual value of Prize will vary depending on final flight itinerary. Sponsor, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to provide ground transportation in lieu of air transportation. No refund or compensation will be made in the event of the cancellation or delay of any flight. A refund or cash equivalent will not be provided to Winner in the event that the actual retail value of the Prize is different than the stated ARV. No cash equivalent available and prize is non-transferable and no substitution will be made except as provided herein at Uber’s sole discretion. Uber and/or any Sweepstakes Entity reserves the right to substitute any listed prize for one of equal or greater value if the designated Prize should become unavailable for any reason. Any portion of the Prize not accepted, or redeemed by the dates or allotted time set forth in these Official Rules, or unclaimed and/or unused by the Winner will be forfeited and will not be substituted and no additional compensation will be provided, no transfer of Prize to a third party is permitted. Prize redemption details shall be provided upon awarding of the Prize by Uber or their designee. Winner and guest will be escorted out of the hotel, venue, and/or any other trip aspect by Sponsor, the applicable onsite representatives, or their designated agent(s) for improper conduct and/or violation of federal, state or local laws (including, but not limited to, the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs, unlawful drug paraphernalia, and alcohol) and, in the case of any such infraction, Sponsor will have no further obligation to winner and winner and his/her guest will forfeit the balance of prize. Sweepstakes Entities will not be responsible for Acts of God, acts of terrorism, civil disturbances, work stoppage or any other natural disaster outside their control that may cause the cancellation or postponement of any Trip activities
Winners must have a valid Uber account to redeem the Prize. 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 in order to redeem this Prize. Uber Cash is subject to the Uber Terms of Service, which are available here. For the avoidance of doubt, although the winner will receive the Uber Cash at no cost as the Prize, the provisions in the Uber Cash Terms of Service shall govern to the extent applicable. The use of Uber Cash is subject to the terms and conditions set forth thereon. Use of Uber Cash constitutes the user’s acceptance of the terms of use which are available at https://www.uber.com/legal/en/document/?name=uber-cash-terms-of-use&country=united-states&lang=en. Uber Cash will not be redeemed or exchanged for cash, except where required by law. Uber Cash 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.
Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for travel delays or cancellations. If any Prize-related activity(s) is canceled or postponed for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to either award only the balance of the prize or to award an alternate Prize of equal or greater value of the postponed/cancelled prize element in full satisfaction of the Prize award. If, for any reason whatsoever, Winner and/or guest are unable to travel or participate in the Trip after all Trip-related travel arrangements have been made, Sponsor shall have no further obligation to Winner and/or guest and no alternate winner will be selected. Prize and Prize elements may not be separated or redeemed for cash. Travel, hotel accommodation and Mastercard Prepaid Card restrictions apply. 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). 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. Winner agrees 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. Any prizes pictured in advertising and other Sweepstakes materials are for illustrative purposes only. Uber or their designee may fulfill the Prize to the Winner, and Sponsor may share your information with a third party for Prize fulfillment purposes. 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.
4. Winner Selection and Notification: Fifty-three (53) potential winners will be selected in a random drawing by Uber from all Eligible Entries on or about September 30, 2021. 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 account), and may 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 to confirm his/her email address within twenty-four (24) hours (or such other time specified by Uber) from when the initial notification 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 will be selected. Uber, in its sole discretion and time permitting, will attempt to contact up to three (3) potential winners of a 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 will be notified by telephone, email and/or mail (method selected in sole and absolute discretion by Sponsor). Potential winner may be required to provide proof of their 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. The potential winner will be required to complete and sign an Affidavit of Eligibility and Release (“Form”), and provide Sponsor with a valid social security number before the prize will be awarded and for tax reporting purposes. An IRS Form 1099 may be issued in the name of the prize winner for the actual value of the prize received. Unclaimed prizes will be forfeited. Form 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 will be selected. Subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Rules, the potential winner will be declared the official winner of the Sweepstakes. 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.

7. Grant of Rights. Except where prohibited by law, by entering the Sweepstakes and/or winning the Prize, Entrant irrevocably consents to the use of his or her name, image, photograph, likeness, biographical information, entry, statements attributed to Entrant (if true) and any video footage related to the Prize, for all Sweepstakes Entities’ advertising, promotional or other commercial purposes in all media now or hereafter known, worldwide and in perpetuity without additional compensation and additionally consents to the Sweepstakes Entities putting his or her name on a winner’s list. Please note that Uber may not acknowledge or return any entries.
8. General Terms.

If, for any reason the Sweepstakes is not capable of running as planned, including, without limitation, due to infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes beyond the reasonable control of the Sweepstakes Entities, which, in Uber’s sole determination, corrupts or affects the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the Sweepstakes, Uber reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify, or suspend the Sweepstakes or any part of the Sweepstakes. If the Sweepstakes or any part of the Sweepstakes is terminated or modified prior to the closing of the Sweepstakes Period, notice will be posted on uber.com. Uber reserves the right to modify and amend these Official Rules from time to time during the Sweepstakes Period for clarification purposes.
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. In the event that any provision of the Official Rules is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable or illegal, the other provisions will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with their terms as if the invalid or illegal provision were not contained herein. 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.
