Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein.  These Official Rules form a binding legal agreement between the Entrant and the Sponsor with respect to the Sweepstakes.  The Sponsor’s computer will serve as the official clock of the Sweepstakes.

5.               HOW TO PARTICIPATE: To participate in the Sweepstakes, an eligible entrant (“Entrant”) must visit http://periodconfidence.com/  (the “Website”), answer three (3) trivia questions (correct answers are not required for entry), check a box confirming that he/she has read and accepted the Sweepstakes rules, and provide his/her name and email address.  This will result in one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes and may be completed by Entrant only once during the Sweepstakes Period. As a condition of entry, Entrant agrees to receive email communications from Diva International, Inc. that relate solely to the administration of the Sweepstakes.  Entrants will also have the option to opt-in to receive marketing email communications from Diva International, Inc.

A.    Once entered in the Sweepstakes, Entrant will receive a unique referral link, which he/she may share with his/her friends/family/contacts via text message, IM, email, blog post and/or social media.  Standard data charges may apply.
