Effective Date: February 14, 2026
Ethics & Product Claims Policy
We value responsible business practices, thoughtful sourcing, and honest communication with our customers. This policy explains the standards applied across our products, supplier relationships, and business communications.
Our Standards
1. Our Approach
We are committed to operating with integrity and presenting product information in a clear, responsible, and good-faith manner. Our business practices are guided by respect for people, animals, and lawful production standards.
2. Cruelty-Free Approach
We support reducing and avoiding animal testing wherever reasonably possible. When a product is described as “cruelty-free” or “not tested on animals,” the statement reflects our good-faith understanding of the information provided by suppliers at that time.
Unless expressly stated, we do not represent that every product is cruelty-free or claim third-party cruelty-free certification.
3. Vegan & Animal-Derived Material Claims
Selected products may be identified as “vegan” or as containing no animal-derived materials only when that description applies to the specific product presented.
Unless expressly stated, we do not represent that every product is vegan. Product claims may be updated if composition or sourcing information changes.
4. No Forced Labor or Exploitation
We oppose forced labor, human trafficking, slavery, child labor exploitation, and abusive working conditions.
We seek to work with suppliers expected to comply with applicable labor and workplace laws. If credible concerns arise regarding a supplier, we reserve the right to review the relationship and take appropriate action.
Claims & Transparency
5. Honest Product Claims
We aim to ensure that product descriptions and ethical statements are presented accurately and in good faith. This includes information relating to:
- Cruelty-free status
- Vegan status
- Ingredients or materials
- Sourcing practices
- Ethical standards
- Product quality or characteristics
6. No Unstated Certification Claims
Unless expressly stated, we do not claim or imply that our products or operations are certified, endorsed, or verified by any third-party cruelty-free, vegan, ethical sourcing, or sustainability organization.
References to ethical standards reflect our internal values and business approach, not third-party certification.
7. Supplier & Product Information
We rely in part on information provided by suppliers and manufacturers. While we aim to maintain accurate product information, some statements may be updated to reflect revised sourcing data, product changes, reformulations, or operational updates.
8. Scope of Statements
Unless specifically stated otherwise, ethics-related and product-related claims apply only to the product, collection, or statement in which they appear.
General brand language should not be interpreted as a representation that every product meets an identical standard in all respects.
