The Dirt Personal Care, LLC. ("The Dirt") hereby issues this Authorized Reseller Policy (“Reseller Policy”), which is effective August 19, 2022 and applies to Authorized Resellers of The Dirt products (“The Dirt Products” or “Products”) in the United States. Resellers of The Dirt Products that purchase Products for retail sale directly from The Dirt are required to adhere to the following terms.
Any retailer that desires to sell any of The Dirt Products (“Retailer”) must complete the The Dirt Authorized Reseller Application, obtain written approval from The Dirt to be considered an “Authorized Reseller” hereunder. Upon approval, The Dirt will notify and provide the Authorized Reseller with certification confirming the parameters of the authorization. The Dirt will periodically review the activities of each Authorized Reseller to confirm compliance with this Authorized Reseller Policy. By accepting certification as an Authorized Reseller, a Retailer agrees to cooperate with any investigation by The Dirt, including, but not limited to, permitting The Dirt to inspect the Retailer’s facility and records related to the sale of The Dirt Products. Any The Dirt Authorized Reseller that receives authorization to sell Products online must also execute the The Dirt Authorized Online Reseller Agreement.
1. Agreement to Serve as an Authorized Reseller. By executing and returning the “Authorized Reseller Certification Notice,” a The Dirt Authorized Reseller agrees to abide by all terms of this Policy and any future amendments that may be authorized by The Dirt, in its sole discretion. No Retailer shall be authorized to resell The Dirt Products without executing the Authorized Reseller Certification Notice.
2. Authorized Resellers shall be authorized to promote, sell, ship, and invoice The Dirt Products solely in the United States. Authorized Resellers shall not promote, sell, ship, or invoice any The Dirt Products outside of the United States without The Dirt’s approval in writing.
3. SALE TO RESELLERS PROHIBITED
Authorized Resellers are authorized to sell Products only directly to purchasers who are the ultimate or end consumer of the Products. Sale to any retailer or entity that the Authorized Reseller knows or has reason to believe intends to resell the Products to any third-party is strictly prohibited. Authorized Reseller shall not sell or transfer Products to any person or entity Authorized Reseller knows or has reason to know intends to resell the Products. Selling or transferring a quantity of Products greater than that typically purchased for personal use to any individual or entity shall be a violation of this Reseller Policy.

The terms of this Reseller Policy supersede any prior agreement between The Dirt and any Retailer or Authorized Reseller regarding the sale of The Dirt Products on or through any internet medium, including websites, mobile applications, and other online forums.
