MINIMUM ADVERTISED INTERNET PRICE POLICYEFFECTIVE AS OF AUGUST 8, 2022

Chewsy, LLC (“Chewsy”) has adopted this Minimum Advertised Internet Price (“MAP”) policy (“Policy”) for products within the Chewsy brand (the “Products”). This Policy is intended to ensure that wholesale customers who market the Products in the United States or Canada (“Retailer”) on the World Wide Web or internet (“Internet”), do so effectively and that consumers of these Products receive appropriate support.

Chewsy’s policy is not to do business with any Retailer that advertises the Products via the Internet at prices below MAP or advertises in any other way on the Internet that would violate this Policy. Chewsy also informs all distributors who resell to Retailers of this Policy and asks that they communicate the Policy to their customers. Chewsy will determine the MAP prices for new Products when introduced, or when existing prices are changed (as contemplated below). 

  • MAP prices are found at www.Chewsychews.com/map (the “Chewsy MAP Page”). Retailers who sell on the Internet are responsible to periodically check the Chewsy MAP Page to ensure they conform to the latest MAP pricing. The Chewsy MAP Page also identifies allowed deviations and time frames. 
  • Chewsy may update information on the Chewsy MAP Page from time to time. The Chewsy MAP Page may include a subscription option for Retailers to enter their email to receive automatic email updates but in any case, Retailers are responsible for periodically checking the Chewsy MAP Page to stay up to date on the latest information posted.
  • This Policy applies to all Retailers who advertise the Products in any manner on the Internet and to all types of advertising on the Internet, including email campaigns, online ads, and websites. Advertising specifically includes any communication of price accessible by a web crawler.  
  • No Chewsy employee or agent other than the Chewsy MAP Administrator is authorized to modify, interpret, or grant exceptions to this Policy; solicit or obtain the agreement of any person to this Policy; or otherwise discuss any aspect of this Policy with any Retailers, including that Retailer’s or any other Retailer’s compliance with the terms of the Policy. The Chewsy MAP Policy Administrator is the only person authorized to communicate decisions regarding the Policy or to make any written modification or exception, which may only be granted in writing. Retailers with comments or questions may submit them in writing to mapadministrator@Chewsychews.com. 
  • Each Retailer is solely responsible for its compliance with the Policy. Chewsy will not review ads, websites, or other Retailer collateral in advance to determine compliance or otherwise approve any Retailer plans submitted to Chewsy. 
  • This Policy applies only to advertised prices and not to the prices at which products are actually sold. 
  • This Policy has been unilaterally adopted by Chewsy, and it informs Retailers and distributors of a unilateral Chewsy business decision. Chewsy is not seeking and will not accept agreement from any Retailer or distributor to comply with the Policy. It is entirely within the discretion of the Retailer to comply or not comply. 
  • If a Chewsy representative seems to suggest that this Policy applies to the Retailer’s actual sales price, or that there is an agreement between Chewsy and any Retailer or distributor as to its advertised or actual selling price, that is wrong. Please report the incident to mapadministrator@chewsychews.com. 
  • If Chewsy learns of a Retailer’s advertising that does not comply with MAP, Chewsy will take the action listed in the Suspension Schedule (below). These actions are not debatable or appealable and will not be changed based on a Retailer’s commitment regarding future practices. Chewsy will accept no assurance of compliance with this Policy from any Retailer or other party. Retailers should not communicate (to Chewsy or to other resellers) their intentions regarding this Policy.
  • From time to time, Chewsy may offer rebates or special promotions on Products on the Internet or authorize a customer to do so, and in such cases, Chewsy will use reasonable commercial efforts to update the Chewsy MAP Page. A Retailer may match (but not exceed) any such rebate or special promotion on the Internet, only during the period that Chewsy offers or authorizes the same. Advertising the same rebate or special promotion does not violate this Policy, as long as the MAP price is shown by the Retailer along with the compliant rebate or discount amount. 
  • Advertising “free shipping” does not violate this Policy. Advertising a free bottle, two-for-one, free gift cards, services, or merchandise with the Products does violate this Policy, except as described or permitted in the prior paragraph.
  • Two or more Products may be featured in the same ad, as long as the advertised price for each product is not below that product’s MAP (or, if two products are advertised at a single bundled price, the combined advertised price is not below the combined MAP for the two products). Products may not be combined with products from other brands.
  • It is the Retailer’s responsibility to ensure that any advertising is not misleading.
  • Advertising without prices does not violate this Policy. Advertising in a way that suggests that the Retailer is offering covered products at prices below MAP is a violation of this Policy. Examples of such violations include “prices too low to mention,” or “our manufacturer won’t let us tell you the price,” “click here for lower price,” “add to shopping cart to see price,” “log-in for price,” “mouse over for price,” “call for price,” “email for a better Price,” and a MAP strike-through (example: $39.00).
  • It is a violation of this Policy to allow any third party to modify the advertised price for any Chewsy Product. 
  • It is not a violation of this Policy to advertise discounts attributable to “Subscribe and Save,” “Auto-ship and Save,” “Repeat Delivery,” or other subscription or auto-replenishment loyalty discount programs even if those discounts result in an advertised price below the MAP. 
  • This Policy does not apply to any reduced price that a Retailer wishes to place within a purchaser’s online shopping cart as a final stage of an online purchase(s), so long as the customer enters the final stage on his/her own without any reference on the website that a lower price will be found at the final purchasing stage.
  • Stating a price orally, either in person or by telephone, does not violate this Policy. Sending an unsolicited email with a price (other than MAP) violates this Policy, whereas responding to an individual customer email asking about a price does not violate this Policy. 

Chewsy greatly values the efforts of its Retailers to market and sell Products and support our mutual customers. We are confident that you understand our commitment to customer satisfaction and our need to communicate this Policy clearly and concisely to meet legal requirements and avoid misunderstandings. This Policy may be terminated or changed by Chewsy at any time in its sole discretion. Terms and conditions of sale of Products can be found at www.Chewsychews.com/terms.

1. First act of noncompliance will result in a warning letter to the Retailer.
