Welcome to Suplery!

Thank you for choosing to join Suplery as a seller.

The terms “Customer”, “you”, “your” refers to the person or company, organization, or entity agreeing to Brand terms. These Brand terms create a legally binding contract between you and Suplery and set forth the conditions under which you can sell products via a Brand account. These Brand terms are ancillary to and must be considered in conjunction with the Suplery Inc. Terms of Service ("General terms"). In case of any discrepancy or inconsistency between these Brand terms and the General terms, the provisions of the Brand terms shall take precedence.

These Brand terms include and reference multiple Suplery policies and rules. These policies and rules are hereby integrated into these Brand terms and should be considered as part of them.

Any capitalized and/or bold terms that are used in these Brand terms but are undefined, will be assumed to have the meanings given to them in the General terms.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE BRAND TERMS OR GENERAL TERMS IN THEIR ENTIRETY, YOU ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN FROM ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM, AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of the Brand terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Brand terms to stay informed of updates. You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Brand terms by your continued use of the Platform after the date of such revised Brand terms. IF THE MODIFIED BRAND TERMS ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE TO YOU, YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USING THE PLATFORM IMMEDIATELY.

Supplier categories and definitions

This Platform caters to diverse types of Suppliers, each carrying distinct roles and responsibilities. Herein, the term "Supplier" refers to the Business that has or is willing to obtain access to a Brand account on the Platform. The following are the specific Supplier categories:

Brand owner: A Brand is a Supplier engaged in the creation, manufacture, or production of professional cosmetics products. To be granted selling rights on the Platform, the Brand must provide valid proof of its rights to the brand name and the associated products.

Brand representative: A Brand representative is a Supplier who operates under the guidance of the Brand owner, carrying out responsibilities such as listing, pricing, selling products, and customer interaction on the Platform.

Distributor: A Distributor is a Supplier entrusted with distribution rights by the Brand owner or Brand representative, facilitating the availability of professional cosmetics products on the Platform.

Brand representatives and Distributors must secure the explicit written consent from the applicable third-party brand prior to conducting business on the Platform. This consent must include comprehensive brand details such as the brand name, products authorized for sale, and relevant contact information. All such details are mandatory for Suplery's legal compliance and quality assurance processes.

As a Brand representative or Distributor, you acknowledge and agree that a third-party brand retains the right to directly list its products on the Platform. Should the third-party brand choose to exercise this right, it may lead to the removal of the relevant products from your listing in accordance with the brand's decision.

The right to sell through the Platform

You are granted the right to present your Marketplace offerings and make sales via the Platform, provided that you satisfy all of the following conditions:

Legal Compliance: You possess the legal right to sell products in the United States and have obtained all necessary licenses, permits, certificates, etc. required by applicable laws and regulations.

Product Rights: You possess the legal right to sell the listed products. This includes, but is not limited to, obtaining requisite permissions for reselling products not originally manufactured by you.

Active Account: You have a verified Brand account on the Platform.

Platform Rules: You adhere to all policies, rules, and terms as stipulated by Suplery.

Failure to satisfy any of these requirements mandates an immediate halt of your product listing and sales activities on the Platform. You are obligated to notify Suplery of any such non-compliance. You hereby accept full responsibility for any violation of these requirements and agree to compensate for any resulting losses incurred by either Suplery or any third-party user of the Platform.

Your clients on the Platform

The relationship between you, as a Supplier, and your clients on the Platform, can be initiated in one of two ways: either by a Client placing an order from you or through an invitation you extend to a potential client. This connection may be discontinued at any point by either party opting not to engage in further buy/sell interactions.

In order to clearly define the nature of these relationships, we differentiate between two types of clients:

Invited clients: These are Clients who have accepted an invitation extended by you within a period of 90 days from the invitation's issuance.

Platform clients: These include all other Clients placing orders through the Platform, excluding your Invited clients.

Please note that transaction fees may vary depending on the type of Client with whom the transaction is conducted.

Further specifics regarding the formation and termination of Client-Supplier relationships are governed by our Client assignment policy. We strongly recommend familiarizing yourself with this policy to ensure seamless and compliant transactions on the Platform.

Non-solicitation of clients

As a Supplier on the Platform, you acknowledge and agree to communicate solely with Platform clients through the Platform itself. You are strictly prohibited from sharing or receiving any contact details, addresses, personal information, or external links with these clients.

Explicit prohibition: You agree not to engage in any attempts to reach out to Platform clients through channels outside of the Platform. Any actions to invite these clients to transact outside the Platform or persuade them to cease using the Platform are expressly forbidden.

Confidentiality: You acknowledge that any client information obtained through the Platform is confidential and intended solely for the purpose of conducting transactions on the Platform. Misuse of this information can result in severe penalties.

Reporting obligations: You are obligated to report to Suplery any attempts by Platfrom clients to conduct transactions outside of the Platform immediately.

Non-compliance: Any violation of these terms can result in substantial penalties, up to 20% of your total sales on the Platfrom but no less than ten thousand dollars, and compensating Suplery for all losses incurred. This compensation can include lost profits, equivalent to up twice times the typical Suplery fee applicable to all purchases made by the Client outside of the Platform. The timeframe for considering such transactions extends up to 10 years from the Client's last purchase through the Platform.

You agree to these terms and acknowledge the necessity of such a clause to maintain the fairness, integrity, and viability of the Platform.

Your product catalog

Catalog governance: The Platform includes a built-in product catalog, a single, canonical listing for each product (“Catalog”). Suplery may create, edit, normalize, translate, categorize, and merge listings, set the canonical listing, and remove duplicates. Each product may be listed only once; creating or maintaining duplicates is prohibited. You must promptly notify Suplery of any duplicate listings you discover.

Creation & maintenance: Unless otherwise agreed with Suplery, you must list your entire catalog and submit/maintain Product Content in line with Suplery’s Content guidelines.

For each canonical Catalog listing, Suplery designates a Responsible party (Content authority) as follows: (i) if you are the only company listing the product, you is the Responsible party; (ii) if the listing has multiple suppliers, responsibility is assigned by this hierarchy—Brand owner first, then a duly authorized Brand representative, then an authorized Distributor (Brand owner > Brand representative > Distributor). Suplery may require proof of authority and may accept, reject, or defer edit requests from non-Responsible sellers; Suplery may also merge duplicates, reclassify products, and adjust taxonomy/attributes to meet Catalog standards.

You must ensure each product you offer exactly corresponds to its Catalog listing; if you cannot supply a conforming item or any listing becomes inaccurate for your offer, you must immediately unlist and promptly correct the Product Content or notify Suplery.

Product content (source of truth; approvals): Suplery may create, normalize, translate, or manage Product content (titles, descriptions, images, claims, ingredients/INCI, directions, warnings, certifications, safety information, and related materials) using information you provide or make publicly available. The Responsible party is the authoritative source of truth and is solely responsible for the completeness, accuracy, legality, and regulatory compliance of all Product content on the Catalog, including content created or edited by Suplery. Suplery will present Product content to the Responsible party for review; the Responsible party must approve or object in writing within five (5) business days of posting or notice (twenty-four (24) hours for safety- or regulatory-critical updates). Failure to respond constitutes approval (“Deemed approval”).

If you are not the Responsible party, you are responsible for the accuracy of anything you submit and must ensure your offers conform to the current Product content; if not, you must immediately unlist. Suplery’s assistance does not shift responsibility and does not constitute legal review; Suplery has no duty to monitor and may edit, pause, or remove any listing at any time without liability, and may pause payouts, require reserves, or offset amounts until compliance is restored.

Data standards: You must supply and maintain accurate identifiers and pack data (e.g., GTIN/UPC/EAN, internal SKU, unit/case/pallet configuration, sizes/variants, expiration or PAO where applicable) and ensure images and documents (e.g., labels, SDS/IFU, certifications) are current and rights-cleared. By submitting Product Content, you grant Suplery the rights necessary to host, display, adapt, and normalize it for the Catalog.

Product types: You must designate each product as professional or home-care. By designating a product as home-care, you authorize Clients to resell that product. You are responsible for ensuring any selective-distribution or channel restrictions applicable to your products are honored.

Reporting obligations: You must promptly report any inaccurate, inappropriate, or misleading product listing you encounter on the Platform, and immediately inform Suplery of any safety, regulatory, recall, or material change affecting a listed product. Suplery may pause or remove listings at any time without liability.

Allocation of risk; Suplery rights: Suplery’s editorial or data-management assistance does not shift responsibility for Product Content to Suplery and does not constitute legal review. Suplery has no duty to monitor for accuracy or compliance. If you fail to meet the obligations above, Suplery may, without liability, remove or suspend listings, pause payouts, require reserves/escrows, and offset amounts from current or future payouts reasonably necessary to address expected claims, returns, recalls, chargebacks, or regulatory costs, until you cure to Suplery’s reasonable satisfaction.

By adhering to these requirements, you help maintain a high-quality product catalog that serves all Users of the Platform effectively and efficiently.

Suplery neither assumes nor holds any liability, and you hereby absolve Suplery from any liability related to any content posted or made available by you, and you agree to indemnify Suplery.

Your rating on the Platform

Suplery may choose to assign and publish ratings to Suppliers on the Platform. These ratings are intended to provide additional information about Suppliers' performance and behavior to other Users and Businesses. It is crucial to understand that these ratings solely reflect the Platform's evaluation and do not represent any independent rating or assessment of any Supplier, product, or service outside of the Platform.

You acknowledge that the rating assigned to a Supplier could potentially impact the decision-making process of other Users or Businesses considering engaging with or placing orders from that Supplier.

You acknowledge and agree that Suplery holds the sole discretion in calculating these ratings and is under no obligation to disclose information regarding its calculation methodology.

You accept that your compliance with our terms, conditions, and performance standards may influence your rating. Non-compliance or violation of any of our terms may lead to a lower rating. Suplery retains the right to adjust or modify your rating based on your performance, User feedback, or compliance with our terms of service and policies.

By agreeing to these terms, you recognize that the rating system is an integral part of the Platform's functionality and serves to maintain high standards of service and user satisfaction.

Pricing

You acknowledge and affirm that your pricing on the Platform can not exceed the prices offered on your other sales channels accessible to US clients. This ensures fairness and parity across all your marketing outlets.

Pricing transparency: Prices listed for all products should be clear, unambiguous, and not misleading to customers.

Charges inclusive: All listed prices should include any applicable fees or additional charges unless expressly stated otherwise.

Discounts and promotions: Any discounts or promotional pricing should be clearly indicated and communicated, ensuring full understanding for customers.

Currency: All prices listed on the Platform should be in US dollars.

You further acknowledge and agree that Suplery may conduct audits of your product catalog's pricing and content. This includes reviewing publicly available information about your products and prices, interviewing your clients, and utilizing other data accessible to Suplery. If a discrepancy is discovered, Suplery may contact you and require specific actions to rectify the issue. Failure to address such discrepancies in a satisfactory and timely manner may result in the temporary suspension or permanent termination of your account.

Inventory

 As a Supplier on the Platform, you agree to maintain an adequate inventory for all products listed as available. Furthermore, you commit to keeping your inventory numbers on the Platform current, ensuring that the listed availability of your products accurately reflects your actual stock levels.

Any changes to your inventory, including restocking or selling out of products, should be updated on the Platform promptly. 

If certain items are subject to delays, are only available seasonally, or if production has been paused, this information should be clearly communicated in the product listing.

You agree to promptly mark any listings for products that are discontinued or no longer available for sale.

Failure to comply with these terms may result in Suplery taking action, up to and including temporary suspension or permanent termination of your account on the Platform.

Supplier interaction and response time

Your interaction with clients will occur through the Platform. To ensure superior service quality and seamless user experience, we require you to adhere to the established procedures and timelines as follows:

Platform Communication: Respond to all messages within 2 business days of receipt through the Platform's messaging system.

Order Processing: Confirm or cancel an order within 2 business days of receipt of the new order.

Return Handling: Issue a full refund, partial refund, or reject the return via the Platform within 4 business days of receiving the returned product. If a partial refund is issued or the return is denied, a justified explanation must be provided.

Non-compliance with these stipulated requirements, a high cancellation frequency, or the lack of reasonable explanations for order cancellations or rejections may lead to a reduced rating on the Platform, suspension, or even permanent termination of your Supplier account.

Fees and payouts

Fees and commissions on the Platform are agreed upon mutually between you and Suplery. We levy three types of fees, applicable depending on the type of client and the order number:

Invited client fees: These are fees applied to orders made by Invited clients.

First order fees: These are fees applied to the first order made by a Platform client.

Subsequent order fees: These fees are applied to the second and all subsequent orders made by a Platform client.

Fees are calculated based on the dollar amount of the order total.

Authorization: You authorize Suplery to deduct its commissions, fees, and any other necessary payments, including but not limited to refunds to Clients, before making payouts to you.

Payout schedule: Payouts are conducted in accordance with the schedule set by our payment processor, Stripe, typically one-two business day following the day of payment. Payouts are executed by transferring the total payout amount into your designated bank account.

Minimum Transaction Amount: You acknowledge and agree that the minimum amount for any transaction processed through the Platform is $1.00 (one U.S. dollar). If an order or payout amount is below this threshold, the transaction will not be processed until the total amount meets or exceeds the required minimum.

Fee changes: Any changes to our fees will be communicated to you in advance and will come into effect after a specified notice period.

Disputes: If you have any disputes concerning fees or payouts, you should contact Suplery directly and we will endeavor to resolve the issue promptly.

Insufficient funds: In circumstances where the amount paid by clients is insufficient to cover all due payments, you authorize Suplery to withdraw the remaining sum from subsequent orders. If incoming funds within the next 30 days are still inadequate to cover all the payments, you agree to compensate the difference directly to Suplery. This compensation will be in accordance with the invoice we provide and will be due within the timeframe specified in the invoice. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in additional fees, suspension or termination of your account, in addition to any other remedies available to Suplery under the law.

Non-Payment Consequences: Late payment or non-payment of fees may result in suspension or termination of your account, in addition to any other remedies available to Suplery under the law.

To facilitate payments, Suplery will create a Stripe account on your behalf using the information you provide during registration. You acknowledge and agree that Suplery may share necessary details with Stripe to enable payment processing and compliance with applicable financial regulations. You are responsible for ensuring that all information provided is accurate and up to date. Failure to do so may result in delays or suspension of payouts.

By providing the bank account information you agree to Stripe service agreements.

To remain eligible for payouts, you must complete the required setup steps, including submitting a valid IRS Form W-9. You further agree to confirm or update your W-9 and company information at least once every six (6) months to maintain uninterrupted payout processing.

Suplery reserves the right to request additional documentation or verification as necessary to comply with financial and regulatory requirements. If you fail to provide the required information or updates in a timely manner, Suplery may, at its sole discretion and unless otherwise required by law 1)suspend your payouts; 2)suspend or remove your listing on the Platform; or 3)suspend or block your account.

You acknowledge and agree to the following terms:

Drop-off point: You must provide a valid drop-off point address located within the United States. We currently do not support delivery outside of the U.S.

Fulfillment options: You can choose to pack and ship the products yourself or utilize the "Suplery fulfillment" option, which provides access to integrated fulfillment providers.

Self-pack and ship: If you choose to pack and ship orders yourself, you are responsible for ensuring that the packaging is appropriate and satisfies all requirements set by the selected delivery service. Upon packing, you must measure the package and provide us with the relevant details.

Selection of delivery provider: You can select your delivery provider from the list provided through the Platform interface. Once selected, you will receive a shipping label, which must be used for delivery. Please note, any changes to the delivery service, package size, or other related aspects are not permitted once the shipping label has been generated.

Drop-off: After preparing the order for delivery, you can drop it off at the selected delivery provider's office or schedule a pick-up through Suplery. If you choose to use the pick-up service provided by Suplery, the fees for this service will be billed according to our invoice.

Shipping costs: You have the option to use your own delivery service account, if the service is integrated with the Platfrom, or make payments for delivery via the Platform. If you choose the latter, the cost of delivery will be automatically deducted from the order total.

Title transfer and liability: The title to the products passes to the client as soon as you ship them. However, issues arising from inadequate packaging leading to damage or loss of the product, as well as missing items, will be your responsibility. You will be required to compensate for any such losses.

Hazardous materials

You are required to operate with full transparency and take responsibility for the nature of your products. This applies especially to products that fall under the category of hazardous materials.

If any product in your catalog is classified as a hazardous material, you must immediately disclose this information, provide us with Safety data sheets, and appropriately mark the product on the Platform. This applies to all products, without exception, and is essential for maintaining the safety and compliance of our platform and its users.

You acknowledge and agree to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and guidelines related to the handling, storage, transportation, sale, and disposal of hazardous materials. This includes, but is not limited to, requirements regarding the packaging, labeling, and shipping of such materials.

In the event of any violation of this provision, you agree to accept full responsibility and compensate for all losses, damages, penalties, and other costs arising from or related to the non-compliance. This includes losses suffered by us, any Users, or any third parties.

Furthermore, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Suplery, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against all claims, demands, lawsuits, damages, losses, costs, or expenses arising out of any violation of these terms related to hazardous materials.

Returns

You acknowledge the Client's right to return products in accordance with our Return policy. You must comply with both local and federal laws and regulations regarding product returns.

When a customer initiates a return request, you may accept or refuse the request. Should the return involve the customer shipping the product back to you, you are allowed to fully accept, partially refuse, or completely refuse to issue a refund once you have received the returned product.

Any refusal, either partial or total, must be justified and adhere to the principle of fair compensation for returned items. It is your responsibility to clearly articulate the reasons for refusal through the Platform interface. All corresponding materials, including justifications for refusal and other related documents, should be stored for a minimum of 5 years following the final decision on the return. This is necessary for reference purposes in the event of potential disputes or audits.

Remedies: If you fail to maintain or evidence the insurance above, Suplery may, without liability, immediately suspend listings, pause payouts, remove Products, and/or offset amounts reasonably necessary to protect against uncovered claims or costs, until you comply.

Supply chain transparency 

Suplery is unwavering in its commitment to uphold business practices that are legal, ethical, and principled. As a supplier collaborating with us, we anticipate you to adopt and maintain these identical principles in your operations.

In line with The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 (SB-657), we obligate you to disclose your efforts in eliminating slavery and human trafficking within your immediate supply chains. This requirement is not limited to Suppliers based in California but extends to all our Suppliers, irrespective of their geographical location.

While we do not conduct routine audits of our Suppliers, we reserve the right to carry out the auditing or enlist third-party verification services should we suspect any potential breach of these requirements on your part. If any potential violation relating to human rights is detected, we will engage with you promptly to address the issue and set forth expectations for its rectification. Persisting non-compliance that is not resolved within a reasonable timeframe may lead to a suspension of your access to the Platform.

Account termination

In the event that you fail to comply with any provision of these Brand terms, Suplery reserves the exclusive right, at its sole discretion and without prior notification, to suspend temporarily or permanently terminate your access to the Platform and/or terminate these Brand terms and/or the General Terms.

Suplery retains the authority to revoke your access to and use of the Platform, at any given time, with or without cause. If these Brand terms are terminated by Suplery due to a breach on your part, you will remain accountable for any and all outstanding amounts owed under these terms.

In instances where your account is suspended due to performance issues, you may appeal for re-activation by submitting a comprehensive action plan outlining how you intend to address and rectify the issues that led to the suspension of your account. If Suplery, at its sole discretion, approves of your action plan, you may be allowed to resume your selling activities through the Platform.

If you contest the validity of the suspension on your account, you are encouraged to contact Suplery and provide a detailed explanation as to why you believe the suspension to be unwarranted. Suplery will review your claim, however, the final decision regarding the status of your account rests solely with Suplery.
