MAP POLICY

Effective January 1, 2024, Glastender, Inc. will implement a Minimum Advertised Price Policy (MAP Policy).

 

Glastender, Inc. is implementing this policy to maintain and enhance the Glastender brand image as well as to ensure that our dealer network has sufficient margins to promote Glastender, Inc. and provide the additional services we believe are critical to the successful sale of Glastender products both now and in the future.

 

The following are the guidelines for the Glatender MAP Policy:

​​

• The MAP pricing level is 45% off the current list price. For example, a $100 item cannot be advertised forless than $55.

• The MAP policy applies to all commercial products published in our price lists as well as AutoQuotes.

• The MAP policy applies to advertised prices and does not apply to the actual price at which products aresold, offered for sale, or negotiated.

• The MAP policy applies to the following forms of media:

  • ​Publications, circulars, magazines, periodicals, and other print media including newspapers

  • Mail order catalogs

  • Billboards

  • Broadcasts including radio and TV ads

  • Direct mailers including flyers and newsletters

• The MAP policy requires that a price no less than the MAP be shown on all internet advertising (i.e., all levels above and below the shopping cart). This policy covers web browsers, search pages, banner advertisements, broadcast e-mails, destination pages, and third-party sites such as:

  • ​Internet-only e-commerce sites

  • Authorized dealer's website

  • Auction houses

  • Shopping portals sites such as:

• This MAP policy does not cover in-store advertising (i.e., POS, shelf-talkers, pricing tags, endcap displays, or window displays).

• This MAP does not affect the Authorized dealer's actual resale price. Each Dealer is expected to independently determine the price at which it sells Glastender, Inc. products. This policy applies to advertised prices only and does not apply to those not distributed to a consumer.

• From time to time Glastender may discontinue certain products or offer promotional pricing with respect to certain products. In those events, Glastender reserves the right to modify or suspend the MAP policy with respect to the affected products at its discretion. All changes shall apply equally to all Glastender, Inc. dealers and distributors.

• Violations of the Glastender, Inc. MAP policy will result in the suspension of any rebates that may be due to that dealer and could result in the ultimate suspension of that dealer or distributor's right to purchase Glastender products on a direct basis.

​

Glastender, Inc., reserves the right at its sole discretion to change the policy and to interpret, enforce, and rule

on any questions or issues related to this policy.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
