5. Entry Restrictions

Only one entry per person is permitted. Multiple entries from the same individual will result in disqualification. Entries must be the entrant's own original work. By entering, you confirm you own the rights to the photograph or video or have permission from the copyright holder. Entries must not contain any content that is offensive, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise inappropriate as determined by the Promoter. The Promoter reserves the right to disqualify any entry that does not comply with these terms or is otherwise unsuitable.

Videos must not exceed 60 seconds in length. Entries may be submitted as standard Instagram feed posts, Instagram Reels, or carousel posts. Stories do not qualify as entries. Entries must not include copyrighted music unless the entrant has the appropriate licenses or uses Instagram's licensed music library. The Promoter is not responsible for any copyright issues arising from entrants' use of music or other copyrighted material.

Entrants are free to write their own captions. While the Promoter may provide suggested caption examples for inspiration, there is no requirement to use any specific wording, promotional messaging, or website references in entry captions. Entries will be judged solely on the visual content (photograph or video), not on caption content.
