ZenShop Inc. including any entity, affiliate or subsidiary owned or controlled by ZenShop, Inc. (“ZenShop”) believes keeping it simple doesn’t mean compromising our integrity. We expect suppliers and other business partners with whom we do business to act with the highest ethical standards. In that regard, Suppliers must fully comply with this Supplier Code of Conduct (“Code”) and educate their employees and subcontractors so they understand and comply with this Code when doing business with or for ZenShop.
Our ethical standards are high and we expect our supplier community to be full of interesting and passionate people who do great work and know how to have fun. But sometimes situations get complex and that’s why we’ve adopted this Supplier Code of Conduct that you should consult any time you are in doubt about how to act.
It’s impossible to predict and describe every situation, so make sure you adopt both the spirit and the letter of the Code.
