GIVEAWAY GUIDELINES

Founding Females® Giveaway Guidelines

LEGAL GUIDELINES TO FOLLOW:

1. Official Giveaway Rules

  • Eligibility - Giveaways are open to anyone, any age, and any gender in any location.

  • Entry methods - Entry methods depend on the giveaway. In order to be considered, you must follow the entry method carefully, such as ‘liking,’ commenting, and sharing to stories.

  • Entry deadline - Each giveaway will specify the deadline to enter.

  • Winner selection method + date - Winners will be chosen according to each giveaway’s specifications.

  • How and when the winner will be contacted - The winner will be contacted via Instagram and/or email. Three attempts will be made to contact the winner. If winner does not respond within 24 hours after the third attempt, another winner will be chosen.

2. Giveaways That Require Subscribing to Email

According to GDPR, CAN-SPAM, and FTC guidelines, we promise to:

  • Make you aware you’re subscribing to occasional emails.

  • Never use hidden checkboxes.

  • Use clear language like “By entering, you agree to receive occasional emails from Founding Females®. You can unsubscribe anytime.”

  • Never hold a grudge if you decide email content isn’t for you and choose to opt out, unless you’re Francie’s absolute BFF and in that case, ouch.

3. Founding Females® giveaways are not a lottery

That means…

  • No purchase is required

  • The prize is always clearly stated

  • Entry is free (like joining your email list)
