SELLER POLICY

Advertising & Marketing Policy

We think that advertisements should aid merchants in growing their companies and enhance the overall member experience. Agritz Fresh provides sellers with a variety of advertising methods via which they may advertise their listings and/or establishments. Review our Advertising & Marketing Policy which describes your rights and obligations to Agritz Fresh’s advertising services.

This policy is included into our Terms of Service. By utilizing any of Agritz Fresh’s advertising services, you acknowledge and agree to this policy and our Terms of Service. This Advertising & Marketing Policy is subject to modification in accordance with Agritz Fresh’s Terms of Service. By using Agritz Fresh’s services in the future, you consent to such changes.

Offsite Ads

Agritz Fresh acquires offsite advertising through a network of cooperating suppliers, including social media platforms and search engines. The shopping engines that are part of Agritz Fresh’s network may change at any time. At the moment, Agritz Fresh syndicates listings to a number of outlets. Agritz Fresh covers all expenditures associated with advertising on these providers through the Offsite Ads program.

Disclaimers

Agritz Fresh maintains the right to modify the conditions of these advertising programs at any time, including the inclusion or removal of fees, the addition or removal of platforms, or the program’s termination (in whole or in part). We will notify you of any significant changes.

Utilizing advertising and promotional services provided by Agritz Fresh does not imply that Agritz Fresh is obligated to display an advertisement or promote your listings or stores. Agritz Fresh cannot promise that a shown advertisement or promotion will be clicked, nor can we guarantee that the connected listing will be sold if a user clicks.

Agritz Fresh’s advertising services and policies, as well as those of Agritz Fresh’s third party channel partners, vary over time, and neither Agritz Fresh nor its third party channel partners guarantee the features, results, or third party channels of any specific program. Agritz Fresh retains the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or discontinue any campaign, incentive offer, or program in whole or in part.

Agritz Fresh may automate portions or all of the advertising services it provides, including aggregating bids across listings, geographical areas, keywords, ad formats, verticals, and on and off-Agritz Fresh marketing channels and platforms. You authorize Agritz Fresh to do so, upon notification from Agritz Fresh, even if such features or options supersede the parameters and settings you established for the specific advertising service.

If Agritz Fresh establishes, cancels, or alters an advertising service, you authorize Agritz Fresh to move your bids, budgets, and campaigns to the new program, to the extent that they are transferrable for the new or changed advertising service’s defaults and features. Agritz Fresh shall notify you of any such transfer.

You may be invited to participate in beta tests of Agritz Fresh’s and/or third-party channels’ advertising services. These beta services are subject to unique terms for each program that you participate in, as well as this policy and the Agritz Fresh Terms in general.

Agritz Fresh may test or experiment with more advertising goods from time to time, and Agritz Fresh’s advertising services, as well as the look and feel of any sort of advertisement, may change as our programs and platforms improve.

Advertisements and promotions may not contain anything that infringes or violates the intellectual property, copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other personal or proprietary rights of a third party.

For further information, please refer to our Intellectual Property Policy. You are responsible for adhering to all applicable rules and regulations regarding your advertisements and promotions.

Agritz Fresh retains the right, in its sole discretion, to reject or delete any advertisement or promotion for any reason, including marketing that adversely impacts our relationships with our members or partners.

Community Policy

At Agritz Fresh, community is at the center of all we do. Agritz Fresh vendors utilize community spaces to gain inspiration, share information, discuss ideas, and develop partnerships that support their company growth.

The Agritz Fresh Community is comprised of three components: Forums, Teams, and a Seller Handbook. This policy is included into our Terms of Service. By accessing or utilizing any of Agritz Fresh’s communal places, you agree to this policy and our Terms of Service.

 Using the Agritz Fresh Community

Agritz Fresh community spaces are open locations for merchants to communicate. Sellers who wish to utilize any of the communal spaces must be over the age of 18. To ensure the Agritz Fresh community remains a safe, inclusive, and courteous environment, you agree to adhere to the following policies in all community spaces:

• Respect the privacy of other members and safeguard your own. Share no private or personally identifying information in the site’s public parts. This may include, but is not limited to, transactional information, personal contact information, and the verbatim content of private correspondence.
• Do not use community forums to discuss encounters with representatives of Agritz Fresh or to provide full transcripts of such discussions (i.e., emails, DMs or messages, live chats etc.).

• Avoid interfering with another seller’s business by utilizing community tools or places.
• Avoid spamming. This includes unsolicited or duplicate postings or links to your store, fundraisers, polls, social network accounts, or other commercial items.
• Use community places to debate price and charge avoidance with other merchants, not to coordinate pricing.
