Pazarme Partners Anti-Counterfeit Policy
Pazarme strives to ensure a trustworthy shopping experience for our customers. The sale of counterfeit or inauthentic products (including products that have been illegally replicated, reproduced, or manufactured), is strictly prohibited. When we identify such products we remove these products and take action against the seller that listed the product.
As a Pazarme Partners you must not use wording such as “dupe,” “fake,” or “faux” in connection with a brand or knowingly promote counterfeit products or products that infringe the intellectual property rights of others. Failure to abide by this policy may result in suspension or termination of your account, including funds being withheld.
Q: Why can’t I use this wording?
Consistent with Pazarme's commitment to protecting intellectual property rights, Pazarme does not allow the use of the terms “dupe,” “fake,” or “faux” in connection with a brand name to describe an item. For example, you may describe something as a “faux snakeskin” bag or “fake fur coat,” but you may not promote the sale of a “fake ABC shirt” or “ABC purse dupe” if the item is not produced by ABC.
Q: I’d like to recommend something that’s stylistically similar to my audience (e.g., if you like these XYZ Fashion t-shirts, you’ll also like these). Is that ok?
Yes – you may use the following with your audience: “shop the look”, “inspired by”, “similar to”.
Q: What’s your policy for vendors?
Vendors on Pazarme are not allowed to list products that infringe trademarks (including logos), copyrights, or patents, or describe their products in a way that would cause customer confusion or otherwise infringe another person’s rights. Our full Vendors IP policy is provided here, including FAQs about copyrights, trademarks and patents.
Q: What happens when Pazarme identifies an infringing product in its store that I have linked to?
As a result of our detection and enforcement activities, Pazarme may remove suspect listings. If you link your audience to one of these products, the link will dead-end.
