    Entries represent solely the views/opinions of the applicable Participant and do not reflect the views/opinions of the Sweepstakes Entities (defined below) in any manner. Any waiver of any obligation hereunder by Sponsor does not constitute a general waiver of any obligation to Participants.

  4. 4. Drawings/Odds Of Winning.

    The one potential winner of the Prize will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible Entries received during the Entry Period, conducted by an independent third party selected by Sponsor, on or about June 20, 2024. The odds of winning the Prize will be determined by the number of Entries received.

  5. 5. Prize/Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”):

    The one winner will, subject to verification, receive a Prize consisting solely of a serenade, tentatively scheduled for the week of July 8 through July 12, 2024 (specific date to be determined by Sponsor) for winner/grandmother from Jay Wheeler at winner/grandmother’s home (or another location in Sponsor’s sole approval) (the “Prize”). The Prize has no ARV.

  6. 6. Winner Notification.

    Sponsor’s redemption center (the “Redemption Center”) will notify the potential winner via a direct message to their TikTok account, and they must respond to the private message from Sponsor within twenty-four hours or Prize will be forfeited.

    Note: Participants must follow @mcdonalds on TikTok at the time of entry and through prize fulfillment in order for the Sponsor to communicate with the potentially winning Participant privately to verify the winner and award the prize.

    Provided that potential winner’s Entry is in compliance with these Official Rules, the content and quality of the Entry will NOT otherwise be taken into account in the winner selection procedure. It is the sole responsibility of each Participant to ensure that their privacy settings allow for Sponsor to contact them via direct message, including following Sponsor’s official TikTok account @mcdonalds. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify, and not award the prize to, any person who does not comply with the foregoing. In the event a potential winner does not respond in the time noted by the Sponsor, that potential winner will be disqualified, forfeit the Prize and the Sponsor will notify an alternate winner. If necessary, the Sponsor will contact up to three alternate winners in order to award the Prize, time permitting, after which the Prize will go unawarded.

    Once any potential winner is notified by Sponsor, they must respond within twenty-four hours to that notification and then follow instructions from Sponsor to complete any prize claim documents (“Prize Claim Documents”) in the time noted and return the Prize Claim Documents to the Redemption Center or forfeit the Prize. (If the potential winner is a Minor, their parent or legal guardian will also need to execute the Prize Claim Documents on their own behalf and the behalf of the Minor.) Potential winner (and Grandma, in Sponsor’s sole discretion) will be required to submit to, and cooperate in, a confidential background check to confirm eligibility and security requirements set by the Sponsor to help ensure that the use of any such person in advertising or publicity for the Sweepstakes will not bring Sponsor into public disrepute, contempt, scandal or ridicule or reflect unfavorably on the Sweepstakes or the Sponsor as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to refrain from conducting any advertising or publicity associated with a winner for any reason. After successful completion of Prize claim procedure, winner will receive additional information regarding receipt of their Prize.

  7. 7. Prize/Entry Conditions/Restrictions.

    Sponsor will work with the winner to determine the date and location for the Prize serenade, with all details subject to Jay Wheeler’s availability and Sponsor’s final approval. Serenade location must be within the 50 United States or DC. If an in-person serenade is impossible or impractical for any reason, as determined by Sponsor, including due to scheduling conflicts, serenade may be provided virtually. Serenade attendees are limited to winner and their Grandma and any substitutions or additional attendees are at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Grandma will be required to sign and return a publicity release to Sponsor in advance of the serenade. Serenade is tentatively scheduled for the week of July 8 through July 12, 2024 (specific date to be determined by Sponsor).

    All expenses, fees and charges associated with Prize acceptance and use and not specified above as being part of the Prize are solely the responsibility of the Prize winner (or their parent or legal guardian if potential winner is an eligible Minor). If won by an eligible Minor, Prize(s) may be awarded in the name of or to such Minor’s parent or legal guardian in Sponsor’s sole discretion. If a potential winner is unable to accept a Prize as stated, the Prize may be forfeited in its/their entirety and may be awarded to an alternate winner. Prizes are non-assignable, non-transferable and will be deemed void if sold, transferred, auctioned or assigned to any third person or entity. A Prize can only be transferred if approved by Sponsor (which approval can be withheld for any reason whatsoever). All income taxes on or connected with any Prize, and the reporting consequences thereof, are solely the responsibility of that Prize winner. If required by law, Sponsor reserves the right to withhold and remit to the appropriate taxing authorities the amount of any taxes due. If unclaimed, Prize will not be awarded.

    Entry Conditions: Each Participant acknowledges and agrees that the decisions of Sponsor and/or the Redemption Center shall be final, binding and conclusive in all matters relating to the Sweepstakes. Any person attempting to forge Prize Claim Documents or defraud Sponsor or any of the Sweepstakes Entities (defined below) in any way in connection with this Sweepstakes may be prosecuted to the fullest extent permitted under the law. In the event of a dispute concerning the identity of a Participant, the Participant will be declared to be the registered account holder of the email address associated with the TikTok account from which the disputed Entry was submitted, but only if that person meets all other eligibility criteria. Otherwise, the Entry may be disqualified, and any potential Prize won will be forfeited in Sponsor’s sole discretion. A registered account holder is defined as the natural person who is assigned to an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the applicable email address. Winner may be required to show proof of being the registered account holder.

Only the one Prize described in these Official Rules will be awarded.

    3. C. Invalidity:

      The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

  10. 10. Arbitration.

    By participating in this Sweepstakes, each Participant agrees that: (1) any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) Participant may have against any of the Sweepstakes Entities arising out of, relating to or connected in any way with the Sweepstakes, the awarding or redemption of Prizes, or the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS and conducted before a sole arbitrator pursuant to JAMS’s Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules and Procedures”); (2) this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16; (3) the arbitration shall be held at a location determined by JAMS pursuant to the Rules and Procedures (provided such location is reasonably convenient for Participant), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed to by the Participant and Sponsor; (4) the arbitrator’s decision shall be controlled by the terms and conditions of these Official Rules and any of the other agreements referenced herein that the Participant may have entered into in connection with the Sweepstakes; (5) the arbitrator shall apply Illinois law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (6) there shall be no authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class or representative basis as Participant and Sponsor hereby waive the right to assert claims in any class or representative action; arbitration can thus decide only the Participant’s and/or Sponsor’s individual claims; the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated; (7) in the event that the administrative fees, arbitrator fees and filing fees associated with the arbitration exceed $250, Sponsor agrees to pay any such administrative, arbitrator and filing fees exceeding $250 on the Participant’s behalf, subject to ultimate allocation by the arbitrator; In addition, if the Participant is able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Sponsor will pay as much of the Participant’s fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive; and (8) with the exception of subpart (6) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures established by JAMS, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, subpart (6) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this Arbitration Provision shall be null and void, and neither Sponsor nor Participant shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. Finally, this arbitration provision is reciprocally binding on all parties, such that both Participant and Sponsor are required to arbitrate their claims against one another.
