Sponsor and Listing Terms
Last updated: August 13, 2026
These terms apply to a business or authorized promotion administrator ("Sponsor") that submits a promotion, supplies campaign content, or buys a business service from SweepFeed. A signed order form or service agreement may add terms for a particular engagement.
1. Authority and campaign classification
The Sponsor must have authority to advertise the submitted business, product, service, or promotion and authorize SweepFeed to display the submitted material. If a campaign advertises a sweepstakes, contest, giveaway, or instant-win promotion, the Sponsor must be legally able to run or represent that promotion and accurately identify its governing method:
- Sweepstakes or giveaway: winner selection depends on chance and the official rules identify a lawful free entry method.
- Skill contest: the official rules identify objective judging criteria, judges or judging process, and tie handling.
- Instant win: the rules explain the predetermined or randomized winning mechanism and available prizes.
Raffles, lotteries, charitable gaming, pay-to-enter chance promotions, and regulated gambling products are not accepted unless SweepFeed gives specific written approval after appropriate legal review. Calling a promotion a "giveaway" does not change its legal structure.
2. Submission requirements
Every advertiser must provide accurate business identity, contact, destination-link, campaign, and creative information. The following additional requirements apply when the campaign advertises a promotion:
- Complete, publicly accessible official rules
- Accurate sponsor and administrator identity and contact details
- Start and end date, time, timezone, and eligible jurisdictions
- Age, entry limits, exclusions, and any alternate method of entry
- Prize quantity, description, stated value, restrictions, and delivery terms
- Entry page, rules page, and authorized promotion-vendor domains
- Required disclosures, privacy notice, and marketing-consent language
3. Material changes
The Sponsor must notify SweepFeed as soon as practical, and ordinarily within one business day, of a material change to official rules, deadline, eligibility, prize or value, entry method or limit, winner count, sponsor identity, domains, cancellation, suspension, or early closure. SweepFeed may retain and display a dated history of changes and the evidence supporting a correction.
4. Sponsor representations
The Sponsor represents and warrants that:
- it has authority to conduct and submit the promotion;
- the promotion and its marketing comply with applicable law;
- submitted facts and assets are accurate and do not infringe rights;
- the rules describe the actual administration and selection process;
- required bonds, registrations, permits, and disclosures are handled;
- it will not use SweepFeed to mislead, spam, or unlawfully collect data.
5. Content and brand license
The Sponsor grants SweepFeed a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license during the listing and reasonable historical-record period to host, reproduce, resize, and display the submitted campaign title, sponsor name, logo, approved images, prize description, factual promotion metadata, and links to the Sponsor's official rules on SweepFeed surfaces. SweepFeed may privately retrieve and retain a copy of official rules as dated evidence for verification, correction, dispute, security, and legal-record purposes. SweepFeed will not republish or distribute that full copy as listing content; public listings use factual fields, SweepFeed-authored summaries, and a link to the Sponsor's source. The Sponsor may request a correction or asset replacement, but removal does not require SweepFeed to erase necessary transaction, complaint, legal, or integrity records.
6. Data roles and tracking
SweepFeed user account data is not included with an ordinary listing. SweepFeed does not provide the Sponsor with a Contact Card or submit a user's entry form. Each party is responsible for its own privacy notice and processing. The Sponsor may not place a pixel, script, or other tracker on SweepFeed without written approval. Any service that requires SweepFeed to process personal data for a Sponsor must be covered by a separate signed agreement and, where appropriate, an executed DPA.
7. Prize and winner obligations
For a campaign that advertises a promotion, the Sponsor—not SweepFeed—must:
- fund, select, verify, notify, and deliver prizes under the rules;
- conduct judging or chance-based selection as disclosed;
- handle winner releases, eligibility checks, and tax reporting;
- maintain legally required records and respond to participant claims;
- cooperate with regulators and notify SweepFeed of a material dispute, suspension, or legal challenge.
Creating an account, viewing or clicking advertisements, buying a SweepFeed product or service, earning or spending DustBunnies, maintaining a streak, joining a leaderboard, referring another user, selecting a charity, or interacting with sponsored content does not submit an entry, improve your odds, or affect a sponsor's winner-selection process.
8. SweepFeed's independent role
SweepFeed is an independent directory and evidence service. A listing or evidence label is not an endorsement, legal approval, sponsor confirmation, prize guarantee, or promise that the promotion will remain unchanged. SweepFeed may add corrections, user reports, evidence labels, or expiration status and may remove a promotion to protect users or service integrity.
Unless the parties sign a separate agreement drafted for that service, SweepFeed does not draft or approve official rules, accept or validate entries, collect participant data for the Sponsor, conduct a drawing or judging, determine eligibility, select or notify winners, fulfill prizes, issue tax forms, or handle registrations, bonding, or regulator filings. The Sponsor remains the promotion's operator and administrator at all times.
9. Paid placement independence
Payment may affect placement or visibility, but it cannot buy better evidence or confidence labels, suppress factual corrections, risk warnings, or legitimate user reports, keep an expired listing active, or prevent quarantine or removal.
The self-service product is advertising placement only. SweepFeed first reviews submitted content for placement eligibility; an approval is not legal approval of the promotion. Payment is requested after that review and cannot purchase approval. Paid cards are labeled Sponsored. The label, duration, placement, deliverables, fees, taxes, invoicing, refunds, and campaign analytics for a purchase are stated in its order or checkout. Unless a signed order says otherwise, fees for a delivered placement are non-refundable.
10. Suspension and removal
SweepFeed may reject, pause, correct, or remove a listing when evidence is incomplete, a material change was not reported, the promotion is unlawful or misleading, a prize is not fulfilled, a link is unsafe, or continued display creates user, security, legal, or reputational risk. When practical, SweepFeed will identify the reason and allow a Sponsor to cure a correctable issue. The Sponsor may request removal, subject to retention of necessary historical and legal records.
11. Sponsor indemnity
The Sponsor will defend and indemnify SweepFeed against third-party claims and reasonable costs arising from the Sponsor's promotion, submitted assets, legal noncompliance, privacy practices, failure to administer the promotion or deliver a prize, or breach of these terms, except to the extent caused by SweepFeed's own unlawful conduct.
12. Liability and commercial terms
To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, special, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages under these terms. SweepFeed's aggregate liability for a paid campaign is limited to the fees the Sponsor paid SweepFeed for that campaign during the twelve months before the claim, unless a signed agreement states a different limit or applicable law does not permit the limitation.
A signed order controls its confidentiality, renewal, taxes, service levels, insurance, governing law, and dispute terms. Otherwise, Wyoming law governs these business terms and the parties consent to courts with jurisdiction over Sheridan County, subject to non-waivable law. The consumer Terms do not govern a Sponsor's business dispute except to the extent a particular user-facing workflow expressly incorporates those consumer protections.
