Enter this promotion by visiting the promotion website https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/secret_phrase​ and following the posted instructions. Limit one entry per person during the Sweepstakes Period. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address. In the event of a dispute regarding the identity of the person submitting an electronic entry, the entry will be deemed to be submitted by the authorized account holder in whose name the provided email account is registered. Entries made by any mass duplication, automatic, robotic, or programmed method, or through any promotion entry, notification, or related service, or in any manner not in compliance with the requirements of these Official Rules are invalid and will be disqualified.

ELIGIBILITY: This promotion is open only to legal residents of the fifty United States and District of Columbia, who have reached the age of majority at time of entry.

CONDITIONS OF ENTRY: Incomplete entries will not be accepted. All entries become the property of Sponsor. All entries will be submitted as the email of the individual person.

By participating, entrants agree to these Official Rules, including all eligibility requirements.

DRAWING: Five (5) prize winners will be randomly selected from all eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.
