Internet Reseller Policy
- Introduction and Rationale
The Progressive Labs Internet Reseller Policy governs the internet resale of products from Progressive Labs (“Progressive”). This policy applies to all new and existing healthcare professional (HCP) customers. - Policies and Restrictions
a. Authorized Resellers: Only healthcare professionals and/or approved distributors authorized by Progressive are allowed to sell Progressive branded products through their website. An acceptable HCP reseller is someone who maintains and has submitted a current medical license, degree or certificate for Progressive’s verification and approval. Such approved licensed HCP customers may resell HCP exclusive products through a website where he/she is accessible while complying with our Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) as outlined in Section III. A “storefront” on Amazon.com is not considered an HCP website under this policy. Sale of Progressive’ products on Amazon.com violate agreements with third parties and is strictly prohibited (See II.j. below). - The HCP Internet Sales Channel: HCP customers shall sell products in unit volumes appropriate for individual personal use only.
- Copyright and Trademark: Content displayed on the Progressive website, in brochures, advertisements, product packaging, product information sheets and other marketing materials are copyrighted and trademarked. All content appearing on or associated with all privately labeled product, is copyrighted and trademarked as well.
- Brand Representation: The unauthorized use of copyrights, trademarks, logos, manufacturing images, product images, copy or other Progressive information on the internet without expressed consent is prohibited. All photos, images, and product and/or company description content pertaining to or describing Progressive must be current and obtained from Progressive directly. This information cannot be pulled from the Progressive website or other internet sources, unless specifically directed in writing by Progressive. This information may be updated and amended at any time. Such amendments will be communicated via mail and/or email to all involved parties.
- Information Disclosure: All individuals or companies intending to resell Progressive products through the internet agree to disclose all ownership or association of any kind with other affiliated websites of any type. Progressive must be notified of any website or online storefront url changes, launches, and/or storefront name changes prior to implementation. Websites where Progressive products are sold or advertised must provide access to the current and approved licensed HCP account holder, including his/her complete phone number, email and office address contact information.
- Compliance with Laws: The HCP customer is solely responsible to comply with all applicable laws and regulations where it advertises or sells Progressive products.
Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) Policy
- Liability: The Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) Policy applies to all customers including those that own, operate or manage websites, online clinics and pharmacies. The MAP policy applies to all printed and electronic advertisements of Progressive products including but not limited to catalogs, brochures, websites, email solicitations, special offers, newsletters and electronic coupons or coupon codes. HCP customers agree to assume all liability and responsibility for the resale of products through the internet.
- Advertising: Through the purchase of Progressive products, customers agree not to advertise through any medium of mass communication any product at less than the Suggested Retail Price (SRP) for each respective product as listed on the Progressive professional product list in effect at the time of the advertising. This policy prohibits the advertising of any volume discount or other promotion that would cause the per unit sales price to be advertised at less than the SRP. Similarly, any language referring to or speaking of inferred discounts that a customer may receive through a website is prohibited. This does not apply to advertising within a practitioner’s office setting. The “practitioner’s office setting” is defined as the physical location where patients are medically seen and treated by the licensed HCP approved by Progressive.
- Failure to Comply
Progressive requires compliance with the terms and conditions outlined in this policy. If a customer fails to comply with this policy, Progressive shall notify them via phone, email or standard mail of the violation and immediately place the customer’s account on hold until the customer has come into compliance. Failure to comply with the MAP policy may result in temporary revocation of the customer’s wholesale purchasing privileges, suspension of the account or termination of the account. Progressive reserves the right to revoke the customer’s wholesale price purchasing privileges and/or terminate the account of any customer in violation of any of the terms or conditions outlined in this policy with or without prior notice. Violation of any such terms automatically forfeits the account holder’s ability to purchase products in any capacity.
