This Privacy Policy explains how Sponsor collects, uses, and protects personal information submitted in connection with the DWP Dorm/College House Makeover Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”). By entering the Sweepstakes, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy, in addition to the Official Sweepstakes Rules.

 

 

 

1. Information We Collect

 

 

When you enter the Sweepstakes, we may collect:

 

  • Identifiers: Name, and Instagram handle.

  • Sweepstakes Entry Information: reposts, hashtags, or other content required for entry.

  • Winner Verification Information: email address, copies of identification, proof of university enrollment, and taxpayer identification information (such as IRS Form W-9, if required).

 

 

We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 18 years of age. Sweepstakes participation is limited to individuals who are 18 or older.

 

 

 

2. How We Use Your Information

 

 

We use your information for purposes including:

 

  • Administering, verifying eligibility for, and operating the Sweepstakes.

  • Contacting you regarding your entry, potential winnings, or required documentation.

  • Complying with legal and tax obligations, including issuing IRS Form 1099 if required.

  • Publicizing the Sweepstakes winner’s name, city, and state, as permitted by law.

  • Sending company updates and announcements from Sponsor, if you have opted in or as otherwise allowed by law.

 

 

 

 

3. How We Share Your Information

 

 

We may share your information only as necessary to:

 

  • Service Providers: with third parties who help us administer the Sweepstakes (e.g., fulfillment and verification vendors).

  • Legal Compliance: when required by law, regulation, or legal process.

  • Public Announcements: with the public, limited to winner’s name, city, and state, as required under the Official Sweepstakes Rules.

 

 

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

 

 

 

4. Data Retention

 

 

Sponsor will retain Sweepstakes-related information only as long as necessary to administer the Sweepstakes, fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements. Winning entries will be kept on file for at least sixty (60) days following completion of the Sweepstakes, and certain tax-related records may be retained longer as required by law.

 

 

 

5. Data Security

 

 

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information you provide against unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 

 

 

6. Your Rights

 

 

Depending on your state of residence, you may have certain rights, such as:

 

  • Accessing the personal information we hold about you.

  • Requesting corrections or updates to your information.

  • Requesting deletion of your information (except where retention is required by law).

7. Third-Party Platforms

 

 

The Sweepstakes is hosted on Instagram. Your use of Instagram is subject to its own terms of service and privacy policy. This promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Instagram, Snapchat, or Amazon.

 

 

 

8. Governing Law

 

 

This Privacy Policy and any disputes relating to it are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to conflict of law principles. All disputes will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Michigan.

 

 

 

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

 

 

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be effective as of the date posted. Continued participation in the Sweepstakes after changes are made constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
