Eligibility: The Sweepstakes is only open to legal residents of Canada (excluding Quebec), any of the 50 United States or the District of Columbia, the United Kingdom, or France, who are 18 years of age or older (or the age of majority in their state or country of residence, whichever is older).

How to Enter: Visit the URL referenced above during the Sweepstakes period and follow the instructions for Sweepstakes entry — entries submitted through completion of the Instructions must be received by Tailscale during the Sweepstakes Period. For an entrant to be entered into the Sweepstakes, the Entrant must complete all directions outlined. Entrants understand that submitting an entry does not mean they will win the Sweepstakes. Incomplete entries will be disqualified. All entries submitted become the property of Tailscale and will not be returned. All Entrants are permitted to submit one entry into the Sweepstakes. Entries will not be accepted if no valid email address is provided, if the supplied email address is not current or if the first and last name are not provided. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of the Entrant, the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to the Entrant. Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned to an email address by an Internet service provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.
Drawing; Odds: Notification: There will be one (1) winner per every ten (5) eligible Entrants (each a “Prize Winner”), rounded to the lowest interval of 5 Entrants (ex: 53 Entrants will produce 10 Prize Winners).

The random drawing will be conducted and the Prize Winners will be announced via email by Friday, June 21, 2024 at approximately 12:00 p.m. PT in the United States. All Entrants are solely responsible for ensuring they include (along with their entry) valid and current contact information.
