Store credit is non-transferable, has no cash value, cannot be redeemed for cash, and does not expire. Store credit may be combined with any other Sponsor discount or promotion at the time of redemption. Top 3 winners are excluded from the raffle drawing; one prize per person.

6. Non-Gen-4 Raffle Winner Substitution

The Aurean Cloak currently sold by Sponsor fits the Oura Ring Generation 4 only. If the winner of the Raffle prize owns an Oura Ring other than Generation 4 (for example, Generation 3 or Generation 5) or does not own an Oura Ring at the time of winning, the Raffle prize will be substituted with Shopify store credit equal to the prize's ARV ($258 USD) usable toward any product sold by Sponsor at any time, including a future Cloak compatible with the winner's ring generation if and when such a product is released. No cash equivalent. No expiration.

7. Winner Selection

Winners will be selected on or about Monday, July 8, 2026.

Top-3 prizes will be awarded to the three entrants with the highest qualifying single-day step counts as submitted via the entry form. Tiebreakers, in order: (1) entrant's second-highest single day of the Entry Period, (2) total weekly step count, (3) earliest submission timestamp.

Raffle winner will be selected by a random draw from all eligible non-top-3 entries, weighted by total raffle entries earned per entrant. The draw will be conducted on camera and recorded; the recording will be posted publicly for verification within a reasonable time after the drawing. The recording will show the full pool of eligible entries (or a verifiable export thereof) and the random selection process used.

8. Verification

Top-3 winners must verify their step count by submitting a 15-second video to Sponsor within 48 hours of being contacted. The video must scroll through their Oura app showing the daily step counts for the full Entry Period and their account name. If a top-3 winner fails to respond within 48 hours, fails to provide adequate verification, or is otherwise disqualified, the prize will be offered to the next eligible entrant.

All entries are subject to verification by Sponsor at Sponsor's sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any entry that appears, in Sponsor's reasonable judgment, to be fraudulent, tampered with, automated, or otherwise non-compliant with these Official Rules.

9. Notification

Winners will be notified by email and/or direct message on the social platform used for entry, on or about July 8, 2026. If a winner cannot be reached within 5 days of the first notification attempt, an alternate winner may be selected.

10. Prize Conditions

All prizes are awarded as described. No prize substitution, transfer, or cash equivalent except at Sponsor's sole discretion or as described in Section 6 above. Winners are solely responsible for any and all taxes, duties, fees, or other charges associated with the receipt and use of any prize in their jurisdiction.

Sponsor reserves the right to award fewer than all prizes if Sponsor determines, in its sole discretion, that an insufficient number of eligible entries are received or that no entry meets the qualifying criteria.

11. General Conditions

By entering, each entrant agrees to be bound by these Official Rules and the decisions of Sponsor, which are final and binding in all matters relating to the Sweepstakes.

Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, illegible, misdirected, garbled, or undeliverable entries; technical, hardware, software, or network malfunctions; communication line failures; or any other errors of any kind whether human, mechanical, or electronic.

Sponsor reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or modify the Sweepstakes at any time if fraud, technical failures, or any other factor beyond Sponsor's reasonable control impairs the integrity of the Sweepstakes, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion.

12. Publicity

By accepting a prize, each winner grants Sponsor permission to use their name, social handle, prize information, and a still image or short clip from their verification video for promotional purposes in any media, worldwide, without further compensation, except where prohibited by law.

13. Privacy

14. Release

By entering, each entrant releases Sponsor, its affiliates, partners, contractors, and their respective employees, officers, directors, and agents from any and all liability, claims, or damages arising out of or relating to participation in the Sweepstakes or the acceptance, use, or misuse of any prize.
