1. CONTEST NAME: Trupanion #2BillionReasons Photo Contest (the “Contest”).
2. SPONSOR: The Contest is sponsored by Trupanion Managers USA, Inc., 6100 Fourth Avenue South, Suite 400, Seattle, WA 98108 (“Sponsor”). The Contest is in no way sponsored or endorsed by Meta Platforms, Inc., Facebook or Instagram.
3.

Any attempt or suspected attempt to use robotic, automatic, programmed or otherwise illicit means to enter the Contest, or any other methods not authorized by these Contest rules (“Official Rules”), for example, but not limited to, creating multiple accounts, identities, or registrations, all in the Sponsor’s sole discretion, shall be deemed as tampering and may disqualify you from entering, participating and/or winning a prize. Entries that contain false or incomplete information are void. Entries that are late, lost, stolen, illegible, contain false information, are damaged, misdirected, mutilated, garbled or incomplete, altered or otherwise irregular or that do not conform with or satisfy any or all of the conditions of the Official Rules are void. Entrants grant Sponsor a non-exclusive license to use all Entries for any purpose. No correspondence will be entered into except with selected entrants. Proof of transmission (for example, screenshots or captures) does not constitute proof of entry or receipt of an Entry.
Employees and former employees of Sponsor, its parent, related and affiliated companies, subsidiaries, departments or agencies, franchisees, suppliers, advertising and promotional agencies, contest administrators or judges, and any other parties engaged in the development, production or distribution of Contest materials, and those living in the same household are not eligible to enter the Contest. By participating in this Contest, entrants acknowledge compliance with, and agree to be bound by, these Official Rules. Entrants who do not comply with any of the Official Rules are subject to disqualification by the Sponsor, in Sponsor’s sole discretion. The Contest is VOID in Quebec, North Dakota and West Virginia and where prohibited by law. All federal, provincial, state, municipal and local laws and regulations apply.
4. CONTEST DATES AND TIMES: The Contest begins on January 30, 2023 at 12:01 AM Eastern Time and ends on February 24, 2023 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time (the “Contest Period”) after which time the Contest will be closed and no further entries will be accepted. During the Contest Period, Sponsor will host a series of photo competitions (each, a “Competition”) on its Facebook and Instagram social media pages (the “Platform”). Each Competition will have its own entry periods, as noted in the Platform post. For the purposes of these Official Rules, the same or similar Platform posts regarding a particular Competition on both Facebook and Instagram shall be considered the same Competition.
5. TO ENTER: Participants can enter a Competition by “publishing” a post on their personal Facebook or Instagram pages with ALL of the following (collectively, an “Entry”): (i) a photo of their pet; (ii) a true and accurate narrative about the Participant’s claims history with Trupanion regarding their pet; and (iii) the hashtags #2BillionReasons and #contestentry. All Entries must be complete and are subject to verification by the Sponsor, in its sole discretion. While Participants may enter more than one (1) Competition, only three (3) Entries per Competition will be considered. Entries must be submitted by the date and time identified in each Platform Competition post to be eligible. The Platform’s clock will be the official timekeeper for this Competition. For purposes of this Competition, an Entry is “received” when a Platform site records your Entry and it is visible to Sponsor during the Contest Period. Other proof of submitting or attempting to submit an entry (such as, without limitation, a screenshot of your purported Entry) does not constitute proof of actual receipt of the Entry for purposes of this Competition. Purported Entries that are received outside the Entry Period (all as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion) will be void. Entries that are late, illegible, incompletely received, or incomplete, for any reason, will not be eligible and are not the responsibility of the Sponsor. Posting on Instagram requires a mobile device and therefore message and data rates may apply. Check with your carrier for additional information.
By entering, Participants agree that the content submitted in their Entries conforms to the following entry requirements:
• The entry must meet format requirements of the social media account used;
• Participant must have permission from any recognizable individuals who appear or are named in the Entry to use their names and likenesses in the Entry and to grant the rights set forth herein. Minors may only be included in the Entry if entrant is their parent or legal guardian. If requested, Participant must be able to provide such permissions or proof in a form acceptable to Sponsor.
• The Entry must not contain material that violates or infringes another’s rights, including but not limited to privacy, publicity or intellectual property rights, or that constitutes copyright infringement;
• The Entry must not contain content created by a third party, such as images or artwork;
• The Entry must not contain brand names or trademarks;
• The Entry must not disparage Sponsor or any other person or party;
• The Entry must not contain material that is inappropriate, offensive, indecent, obscene, tortious, defamatory, slanderous or libelous;
• The Entry must not contain material that promotes bigotry, racism, hatred or harm against any group or individual or promotes discrimination based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age;
• The Entry must not contain political content; and
• The Entry must not contain material that is unlawful, in violation of, or contrary to the laws or regulations in any state where Entry is created.
Sponsor may disqualify Participants and/or their Entries for failure to conform to the aforementioned requirements.
In the event of a dispute over the identity of a selected entrant, Sponsor may require evidence sufficient to show that they are the authorized account holder of the social media account used to submit the Entry. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned the account by the relevant social media platform.

The Judges will use the following scoring criteria when evaluating Entries: (i) 50% - the arrangement of the forms within the photo should pleasing to the eye, and (ii) 50% - the quality of the story associated with the photo should appeal to the benefits of the Trupanion brand and product. The Judges’ decisions are final. Sponsor and Judges have no obligation to disclose Entry scores to Participants.

5. TO ENTER: Participants can enter a Competition by “publishing” a post on their personal Facebook or Instagram pages with ALL of the following (collectively, an “Entry”): (i) a photo of their pet; (ii) a true and accurate narrative about the Participant’s claims history with Trupanion regarding their pet; and (iii) the hashtags #2BillionReasons and #contestentry.

Entries that are late, illegible, incompletely received, or incomplete, for any reason, will not be eligible and are not the responsibility of the Sponsor.
