The promotion is divided into twelve (12) monthly drawing periods, each starting on the first day of the month and ending on the last day of the same month, from January through December 2026; each month/monthly drawing period has its own entry pool (each an “Entry Pool”). Eligible entrants can only enter the Sweepstakes before or during their birth month, after such date, they cannot gain entry into the Sweepstakes (for an example, see Section 3 below). For purposes of this Sweepstakes, the official timekeeping device will be Sponsor’s website server.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States, the District of Columbia (including active-duty U.S. military members and their families stationed on U.S. bases), and Canada. Entrants must be at least 18 years of age and have reached the legal age of majority in their state, province, or territory of residence at the time of entry (19 in Alabama, Nebraska, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Yukon, Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and Newfoundland and Labrador). The following individuals may not participate or claim a prize: employees, officers, directors, and contractors of Driscoll’s, Inc. (“Sponsor”), its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and all agencies involved in the creation, administration, advertising, or fulfillment of this Sweepstakes, including Secure Digital Promotions LLC (“Administrator”) (collectively, “Sweepstakes Parties”), along with their immediate family members (defined as spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or step-relative) and anyone living in the same household (whether related or not) for at least three consecutive months during the twelve months before the Sweepstakes start date.
TO ENTER THE SWEEPSTAKES: During the Sweepstakes Period, but before the conclusion of the entrant’s birth month, entrants can visit https://www.driscolls.com/Rewards-Birthday (“Website”) to complete the entry form with all requested information, including their birth month, and submit to receive one (1) entry into the drawing for the Entry Pool that corresponds to the entrant’s birth month. Entries will only be accepted if the birth month selected has yet to occur or has yet to be complete. If an entrant submits an entry after the last day of their birth month, they will not receive any entry into the Sweepstakes and their entry will not be included in any Entry Pool. Just by way of example, if Jane was born on March 21, she can enter the Sweepstakes between January 1, 2026 and March 31, 2026 and any entry attempt by Jane on or after April 1, 2026 will be void. Entrants may register at any time, however, their entry is only eligible for the Entry Pool that corresponds with their birth month.

Any entrant who attempts to enter using any device or artifice to enter above the stated limit may be disqualified and forfeit any prize won, in the Sponsor’s sole discretion. Proof of submission is not proof of receipt by Sponsor. In the event of a dispute as to who submitted the entry, the natural person associated with the email account used for entry will be considered the entrant, but only if that person is otherwise eligible to enter the Sweepstakes and is the copyright owner of the entry.

GENERAL CONDITIONS: Any attempt to deliberately damage a website or disrupt the lawful operation of this Sweepstakes is a violation of criminal and civil law. If such an attempt is made, the Sponsor reserves the right to pursue damages and other remedies to the fullest extent permitted by law, including criminal prosecution. If the Sweepstakes cannot run as intended due to causes such as computer viruses, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, or other issues that compromise the administration, security, fairness, or proper conduct of the Sweepstakes, the Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may disqualify any person responsible and cancel, modify, or terminate the Sweepstakes. In addition, if events beyond the Sponsor’s reasonable control (“Force Majeure” events) make the Sweepstakes impracticable, such as natural disasters, pandemics, extreme weather, strikes, equipment failures, terrorism, war, government actions, or similar occurrences, the Sponsor reserves the right to shorten, suspend, cancel, or terminate the Sweepstakes without further obligation. In such cases, prizes for any drawings already completed will be awarded as described, and no additional drawings will be conducted. If an entry is lost, deleted, or destroyed in error, the entrant’s sole remedy will be to receive another entry into the Sweepstakes. The Sponsor may update or clarify these Official Rules online from time to time, provided such changes do not materially alter the Sweepstakes terms and conditions.
LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND RELEASE: The Sponsor and Sweepstakes Parties assume no liability for any issues arising from an entrant’s participation, attempted participation, or downloading of materials related to this Sweepstakes. Without limitation, they are not responsible for technical errors or malfunctions of any kind, including hardware or software failures; problems with computers, telephones, cables, satellites, networks, electronics, wireless connections, or Internet service providers; server or host issues; corrupted or misdirected data transmissions; failed, delayed, lost, or intercepted emails; partial or total inaccessibility of the Website; Internet or Website traffic congestion; or unauthorized human or automated interference such as tampering, hacking, theft, viruses, bugs, or worms.

BINDING ARBITRATION: Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Sweepstakes shall be settled by binding arbitration in a location determined by the arbitrator as set forth herein (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for claimant), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties, in accordance with the procedural rules for commercial disputes outlined in the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS (“JAMS Rules and Procedures”) then prevailing, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator shall apply California state law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law. If the claimant can demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Sponsor will pay as much of the claimant’s filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal (other than that claim will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis), or otherwise conflicts with the rules and procedures established by JAMS. If, however, the portion that is deemed invalid, unenforceable, or illegal is that claims will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither claimant nor Sponsor shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. Upon filing a demand for arbitration, all parties to such arbitration shall have the right of discovery, which discovery shall be completed within sixty days after the demand for arbitration is made, unless further extended by mutual agreement of the parties. THE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PURSUANT TO THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE IN THE ENTRANT’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED. DO NOT ENTER THIS SWEEPSTAKES IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO HAVE ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARBITRATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE OFFICIAL RULES. BY PARTICIPATING IN THIS SWEEPSTAKES, EACH ENTRANT AGREES THAT TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (1) ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED WITH THE SWEEPSTAKES, OR ANY PRIZE AWARDED, WILL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE, WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS ACTION; (2) ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, JUDGMENTS, AND AWARDS WILL BE LIMITED TO ACTUAL THIRD-PARTY, OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS INCURRED (IF ANY), BUT IN NO EVENT WILL ATTORNEYS' FEES BE AWARDED OR RECOVERABLE; (3) UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL ANY ENTRANT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN ANY AWARD FOR, AND ENTRANT HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO SEEK, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS AND/OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES, OTHER THAN ACTUAL OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES, AND/OR ANY RIGHTS TO HAVE DAMAGES MULTIPLIED OR OTHERWISE INCREASED; AND (4) ENTRANT'S REMEDIES ARE LIMITED TO A CLAIM FOR MONEY DAMAGES (IF ANY) AND ENTRANT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR EQUITABLE RELIEF. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO EVERY ENTRANT.
PUBLICITY: Except in Tennessee or where restricted by law, acceptance of a prize constitutes the winner’s consent for the Sponsor and its authorized agents to use the winner’s name, city and state/province/territory of residence, photograph, voice, and/or likeness for advertising or publicity purposes in any media now known or developed in the future, without time or geographic limitation, additional notice, or further compensation. In addition, the winner’s information may be included on a publicly available winners’ list.
GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION: To the maximum extent allowed by law, all matters regarding the construction, validity, interpretation, and enforceability of these Official Rules, as well as your rights and obligations or those of the Sponsor in connection with the Sweepstakes, will be governed by the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes or proceedings not subject to arbitration under Section 12 of these Official Rules, or related to enforcement of an arbitration award, must be brought exclusively in the federal, state, or local courts located in Santa Cruz County, California. The Sponsor’s decision not to enforce a provision of these Official Rules will not be considered a waiver of that provision or any other. If a provision is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be removed, and all remaining provisions will continue to apply.
