Vendor agreement
Effective Date: May 16, 2026·Last Updated: May 16, 2026
This Vendor Agreement governs the relationship between AminoCatalog (“AminoCatalog,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and the business, organization, or individual that applies for, claims, creates, or manages a vendor account, vendor profile, product listing, paid placement, verification feature, featured listing, or other vendor-facing feature on AminoCatalog (“Vendor,” “you,” or “your”). AminoCatalog operates from the State of Nevada in the United States.
By submitting a vendor application, creating a vendor account, claiming a vendor profile, submitting product listings, purchasing vendor features, responding to reviews, or otherwise using AminoCatalog as a vendor, you agree to this Vendor Agreement, our Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, our Content Policy, and any vendor policies, content standards, dashboard rules, or product listing rules we provide. If you do not agree, do not use AminoCatalog as a vendor.
1. Relationship to Other Terms
This Vendor Agreement supplements the AminoCatalog Terms of Service. If this Vendor Agreement conflicts with the Terms of Service, this Vendor Agreement controls for vendor-specific matters. The Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Content Policy continue to apply to all use of AminoCatalog.
If a separate written agreement is signed by both AminoCatalog and Vendor, that signed agreement controls to the extent it expressly conflicts with this Vendor Agreement.
2. Platform Role
AminoCatalog is an informational platform, peptide encyclopedia, vendor directory, review platform, and vendor profile system. AminoCatalog is not a pharmacy, medical provider, telehealth provider, laboratory, manufacturer, distributor, broker, reseller, importer, exporter, wholesaler, retailer, payment processor for peptide sales, or marketplace for peptides, research chemicals, drugs, biologics, supplements, medical products, or related compounds.
AminoCatalog does not sell Vendor products to users. AminoCatalog does not take possession of Vendor products, set Vendor prices, process user purchases of Vendor products, arrange shipments, provide fulfillment services, verify product quality, provide medical advice, prescribe products, or determine whether any Vendor product is legal for sale, possession, shipment, research, or use in any jurisdiction.
Vendor is solely responsible for its business, products, claims, advertising, labels, compliance, customer communications, website, fulfillment, refunds, chargebacks, taxes, licensing, registrations, testing, safety practices, and legal obligations.
3. Vendor Eligibility and Authority
Vendor represents and warrants that:
- Vendor is legally permitted to operate its business.
- Vendor has all rights, licenses, registrations, permits, and authorizations required for its business and listed products.
- The individual accepting this Vendor Agreement has authority to bind Vendor.
- Vendor will provide accurate, current, complete, and non-misleading information to AminoCatalog.
- Vendor will promptly update information that becomes inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading.
- Vendor is not prohibited by law, contract, sanctions, platform restrictions, or prior enforcement action from using AminoCatalog.
AminoCatalog may require Vendor to provide identity, ownership, business, website, compliance, product, testing, or other documentation before approval or at any time after approval.
4. Vendor Application, Approval, and Continuing Review
Vendor access is not guaranteed. AminoCatalog may approve, reject, waitlist, suspend, delist, downgrade, restrict, or terminate any Vendor account, profile, listing, badge, verification, subscription, or placement at any time.
AminoCatalog may consider any information we deem relevant, including:
- Vendor application materials.
- Vendor website content.
- Product categories.
- Claims and marketing language.
- Public complaints.
- User reviews.
- Review-integrity signals.
- Testing documentation.
- Regulatory or legal risk.
- Prior platform history.
- Social media activity.
- Customer support patterns.
- Evidence of unsafe, deceptive, illegal, or misleading conduct.
Approval, listing, verification, or paid placement does not mean AminoCatalog endorses, certifies, guarantees, audits, recommends, or approves Vendor or any Vendor product.
5. Research-Chemical and No Human-Use Marketing Requirements
Vendor acknowledges that peptides and related compounds may be subject to federal, state, local, and international laws and regulations. Some compounds may be investigational, unapproved, restricted, prescription-only, prohibited, controlled, or otherwise regulated.
Vendor must not use AminoCatalog to market, promote, sell, describe, or facilitate the sale of products for unlawful human or animal use.
Unless Vendor is legally authorized to market a product for human or animal use and all applicable approval, prescription, dispensing, labeling, advertising, and professional requirements are satisfied, Vendor must treat listed compounds as research chemicals not for human consumption and must not make human-use or animal-use claims.
Vendor must not falsely rely on language such as “research use only,” “not for human consumption,” “lab use only,” “for research purposes,” or similar disclaimers if Vendor’s actual website, product pages, emails, customer support, social media, influencers, affiliates, customer instructions, testimonials, advertising, packaging, or other conduct indicates intended human or animal use in violation of applicable law.
Vendor must not include or link to content that provides, implies, or encourages personal use, including:
- Human dosing instructions.
- Animal dosing instructions.
- Injection instructions.
- Cycle protocols.
- Reconstitution protocols intended for personal use.
- Weight loss protocols.
- Muscle gain protocols.
- Anti-aging or longevity protocols intended for personal use.
- Before-and-after content.
- Treatment claims.
- Disease claims.
- Cure, prevention, mitigation, or diagnosis claims.
- Personal testimonials claiming health, body composition, sexual, cosmetic, cognitive, recovery, or performance outcomes.
- Statements that a product is safe, sterile, effective, pharmacy-grade, medical-grade, approved, legal for personal use, or suitable for human or animal consumption unless such statements are lawful, truthful, substantiated, and authorized.
AminoCatalog may remove, restrict, or delist any Vendor if we believe Vendor’s AminoCatalog listing or off-platform conduct creates legal, regulatory, safety, reputational, or platform-integrity risk.
6. Legal and Regulatory Compliance
Vendor is solely responsible for complying with all laws, rules, regulations, guidance, licensing obligations, registration requirements, advertising standards, product standards, labeling rules, import and export rules, customs rules, consumer protection laws, privacy laws, tax laws, and industry standards that apply to Vendor.
Without limiting the foregoing, Vendor is solely responsible for compliance with laws and requirements administered or enforced by agencies or authorities that may include, depending on Vendor’s products and conduct:

- U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
- State boards of pharmacy.
- State attorneys general.
- International regulators and customs authorities.
- Advertising self-regulatory bodies.
- Any other applicable federal, state, local, or foreign authority.
Vendor must not submit or maintain any listing, claim, product, image, document, lab report, link, or content that is false, misleading, unlawful, deceptive, unfair, unsafe, infringing, or otherwise non-compliant.
Vendor must promptly notify AminoCatalog at vendors@aminocatalog.com if Vendor receives any warning letter, subpoena, civil investigative demand, regulatory inquiry, enforcement notice, seizure notice, customs notice, lawsuit, demand letter, safety complaint, or other material claim involving Vendor’s listed products, marketing claims, testing claims, customer safety, or ability to lawfully operate.
7. Product Listing Standards
Vendor is responsible for all product listing information submitted to AminoCatalog. Product listings must be accurate, current, complete, and not misleading, and must comply with our Content Policy, including the categorical product prohibitions in Section 11 of that policy.
AminoCatalog may allow Vendor to submit information such as:

AminoCatalog may reject, edit, hide, reclassify, label, demote, or remove product listings at any time.
8. Testing, Certificates of Analysis, and Quality Claims
If Vendor submits or references testing, certificates of analysis, lab reports, purity claims, sterility claims, identity claims, or quality claims, Vendor represents and warrants that those materials and claims are truthful, current, complete, not misleading, and supported by competent and reliable evidence.
Vendor must not submit or reference testing materials unless Vendor has the legal right to use them and they accurately correspond to the listed product or lot.
Unless clearly disclosed otherwise, any certificate of analysis or lab report submitted by Vendor must be:
- Authentic.
- Unaltered except for permitted redactions.
- Current enough to avoid misleading users.
- Specific to the product, lot, or batch represented.
- From a legitimate laboratory.
- Clear about test date, method, analyte, result, and limitations.
- Consistent with the claims made in the listing.
- Accompanied by the lot or batch identifier when the testing or claim is lot- or batch-specific (see Appendix B field 14).
AminoCatalog may request additional documentation, reject testing claims, remove testing badges, or delist Vendor if testing materials appear questionable, incomplete, inconsistent, altered, fabricated, outdated, unverifiable, or misleading.
AminoCatalog does not independently verify every lab report and does not guarantee the identity, purity, quality, sterility, safety, legality, or accuracy of any Vendor product or testing material.
9. Vendor Content License
Vendor may submit text, images, logos, trademarks, product information, documents, lab reports, certificates of analysis, links, descriptions, responses, and other materials (“Vendor Content”).
Vendor grants AminoCatalog a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, display, publish, distribute, modify, format, excerpt, analyze, index, translate, use, and create derivative works from Vendor Content in connection with operating, promoting, securing, moderating, and improving AminoCatalog.
Vendor represents and warrants that Vendor owns or has all necessary rights to submit Vendor Content and grant this license. Vendor Content must not infringe or violate any intellectual property, privacy, publicity, contractual, confidentiality, or other rights.
AminoCatalog may continue to retain and use Vendor Content after termination as reasonably necessary for legal compliance, archival records, review integrity, dispute resolution, user safety, fraud prevention, analytics, enforcement, and platform integrity.
10. Vendor Trademarks and Branding
Vendor grants AminoCatalog permission to use Vendor’s name, logo, trademarks, trade names, product names, screenshots, and publicly available brand materials to identify Vendor in the directory, vendor profiles, search results, category pages, comparison pages, editorial content, advertising disclosures, reports, and platform communications.
AminoCatalog’s use of Vendor branding does not imply endorsement by Vendor unless expressly stated in writing.
Vendor may not use AminoCatalog’s name, logo, trademarks, badges, verification labels, screenshots, ratings, rankings, or review content in advertising or marketing except as expressly permitted by AminoCatalog in writing. Vendor must not imply endorsement, certification, partnership, approval, or guaranteed quality unless AminoCatalog expressly authorizes that claim in writing.
11. Reviews, Ratings, and Review Integrity
AminoCatalog may allow users to review and rate vendors and products. Vendor agrees that review integrity is essential to the platform.
Vendor must not:
- Review itself.
- Ask employees, contractors, owners, officers, investors, affiliates, family members, agencies, competitors, or related parties to post undisclosed reviews.
- Create fake accounts.
- Purchase fake reviews.
- Offer compensation, discounts, free products, refunds, gifts, store credit, rewards, or other incentives for reviews unless clearly disclosed and expressly permitted by AminoCatalog.

- Flag reviews in bad faith.
- Submit false disputes or false authenticity challenges.
- Use third-party agencies, affiliates, influencers, or private groups to manipulate reviews.
- Suppress negative reviews through off-platform pressure.
Vendor may respond to reviews through approved platform tools if available. Vendor responses must be professional, truthful, non-harassing, and compliant with this Vendor Agreement and the Content Policy. Vendor responses must not reveal private customer information, health information, order details, shipping details, personal identifiers, or other confidential information unless legally permitted and reasonably necessary.
The proper channel for disputing a specific review as factually false or policy-violating is reviews@aminocatalog.com (see Content Policy Section 15). Disputes raised through public vendor responses do not substitute for that channel.
AminoCatalog may remove, label, demote, preserve, or investigate reviews and vendor responses at our discretion. We may use manual and automated systems to detect review manipulation.
12. User Data and Privacy
Vendor may receive limited user-related information through AminoCatalog, such as review content, display names, review metadata, public profile information, outbound referral information, vendor dashboard analytics, or dispute information.
Vendor must use AminoCatalog-related user information only for legitimate purposes connected to AminoCatalog and only as permitted by law and this Vendor Agreement.
Vendor must not:
- Sell, rent, trade, or broker AminoCatalog user information.
- Scrape, harvest, or build user profiles from AminoCatalog.
- Spam users.
- Retaliate against reviewers.

Vendor is independently responsible for its own privacy policy, data security, legal bases for processing, consumer request handling, breach response, and compliance obligations.

Vendor is responsible for all activity under its vendor account and dashboard.
Vendor must:
- Use accurate account information.

- Promptly remove access for former employees, contractors, or agents.
- Promptly notify AminoCatalog of unauthorized access, credential compromise, or suspicious activity at security@aminocatalog.com.

AminoCatalog may require multi-factor authentication, additional verification, password resets, or access restrictions for vendor accounts.
14. Paid Vendor Features, Fees, and Taxes
AminoCatalog may offer paid vendor features such as vendor subscriptions, verified profiles, featured listings, sponsored placements, analytics, badges, enhanced profile tools, or advertising.
Fees, billing cycles, renewal terms, cancellation terms, refund terms, feature descriptions, and payment methods may be provided at checkout, in the vendor dashboard, or in a separate order form.
Unless otherwise stated in writing or required by law:
- Fees are non-refundable.
- Paid features do not guarantee approval, listing, traffic, clicks, conversions, sales, ranking, review score, user trust, or continued platform access.
- AminoCatalog may change pricing prospectively.
- Vendor is responsible for all applicable taxes, duties, and similar charges.

AminoCatalog may use third-party payment processors. Vendor agrees to comply with payment processor terms and provide accurate billing information.
15. No Traffic, Sales, Ranking, or Review Guarantees
AminoCatalog does not guarantee any number of impressions, clicks, leads, conversions, purchases, reviews, ratings, search positions, rankings, saved vendors, profile views, product views, or revenue.
AminoCatalog may change directory layout, ranking logic, review displays, filters, categories, search behavior, sponsorship displays, verification rules, badges, and vendor profile features at any time.
16. Product Sales and Customer Disputes
All product sales, if any, occur outside AminoCatalog directly between Vendor and customers. AminoCatalog is not a party to those transactions.
Vendor is solely responsible for:
- Product legality.
- Product quality.
- Product identity.

- Any claims, injuries, losses, or disputes arising from Vendor products or business practices.
Vendor must not tell users that AminoCatalog is responsible for Vendor products, orders, shipping, refunds, replacements, testing, or disputes.
17. Prohibited Products and Conduct
AminoCatalog may prohibit or restrict categories of products, claims, vendors, or content at our discretion. The categorical product prohibitions in Section 11 of the Content Policy apply to Vendor and are incorporated into this Vendor Agreement by reference.

- Scrape, copy, reverse engineer, overload, interfere with, or attack the Service.
- Use AminoCatalog data to build a competing vendor directory, review database, or commercial dataset without written permission.
18. Monitoring, Audits, and Investigations
AminoCatalog may monitor Vendor activity on AminoCatalog and may review publicly available Vendor websites, social media, ads, affiliate content, product pages, customer-facing materials, and related public information.
AminoCatalog may request documentation or explanations from Vendor at any time, including business information, product information, testing documentation, compliance materials, customer dispute information, review-authenticity evidence, or proof of authority.
Vendor agrees to cooperate with AminoCatalog investigations. Failure to respond, evasive responses, false statements, altered documents, or incomplete information may result in suspension, delisting, termination, or other enforcement action.
AminoCatalog has no obligation to monitor all Vendor activity and no responsibility for failing to detect or prevent Vendor misconduct.
19. Confidentiality
Vendor may receive non-public information from AminoCatalog, including dashboard information, business plans, pricing terms, product plans, analytics, moderation signals, security information, review-integrity methods, vendor evaluation criteria, communications, or other information marked or reasonably understood as confidential (“Confidential Information”).
Vendor must protect Confidential Information using reasonable care and must not disclose it to third parties except to authorized personnel, contractors, professional advisors, or service providers who need to know it and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
Confidential Information does not include information that is publicly available through no fault of Vendor, already lawfully known to Vendor, independently developed without use of Confidential Information, or lawfully received from a third party without confidentiality restrictions.
20. Publicity
Vendor must not issue press releases, public announcements, case studies, advertisements, or promotional materials suggesting partnership, endorsement, certification, verification, preferred status, or approval by AminoCatalog without our prior written permission.
AminoCatalog may identify Vendor as a listed vendor or customer of vendor-facing services unless Vendor requests otherwise in writing and AminoCatalog agrees.
21. Insurance
AminoCatalog may require Vendor to maintain commercially reasonable insurance coverage based on Vendor’s products, claims, jurisdiction, risk profile, and paid feature participation. Required coverage may include commercial general liability, product liability, cyber liability, professional liability, or other coverage.
Upon request, Vendor must provide evidence of required insurance. Failure to maintain requested insurance may result in suspension, delisting, or termination.
22. Term and Termination
This Vendor Agreement begins when Vendor first applies for, creates, claims, or uses a vendor account, profile, listing, paid feature, or other vendor-facing feature, and continues until terminated.
Vendor may terminate by closing its vendor account or providing written notice to AminoCatalog at vendors@aminocatalog.com, subject to any applicable paid-feature terms, outstanding fees, legal obligations, and survival provisions.
AminoCatalog may suspend, restrict, delist, downgrade, or terminate Vendor immediately, with or without notice, if AminoCatalog believes:
- Vendor violated this Vendor Agreement, the Terms of Service, or any platform policy.

- Vendor failed to pay fees.
- Vendor failed to cooperate with an investigation.
- Vendor’s products, listings, website, social media, or public conduct conflict with AminoCatalog standards.

Upon termination, AminoCatalog may remove or preserve Vendor profiles, listings, responses, documents, badges, analytics, and Vendor Content as reasonably necessary for legal compliance, archival records, review integrity, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, enforcement, analytics, and platform integrity.
23. Effect of Termination
After termination:
- Vendor must stop using vendor dashboard features.
- Vendor must stop using AminoCatalog badges, verification labels, ratings, rankings, screenshots, and promotional references unless AminoCatalog permits continued use in writing.
- Vendor remains responsible for unpaid fees, disputes, indemnification obligations, confidentiality obligations, and pre-termination conduct.
- AminoCatalog may continue displaying historical reviews, ratings, enforcement labels, public-interest notices, or archived information where appropriate.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including provisions on compliance, content licenses, user data, confidentiality, fees owed, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, and governing law.
24. Disclaimers
AminoCatalog provides vendor-facing features on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, AminoCatalog disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, security, uninterrupted operation, ranking performance, traffic performance, lead generation, conversion performance, and revenue performance.
AminoCatalog does not warrant that:
- Vendor will be approved, listed, featured, verified, ranked, or displayed.

- Reviews will be favorable, accurate, representative, or free from bias.
- Rankings, ratings, badges, filters, analytics, or reports will be error-free.

Vendor uses AminoCatalog at Vendor’s own risk.
25. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, AminoCatalog and its owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, licensors, service providers, and partners will not be liable to Vendor for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, or enhanced damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost sales, lost traffic, lost rankings, lost reviews, lost data, loss of goodwill, business interruption, regulatory action, product liability, customer disputes, chargebacks, enforcement actions, or reputational harm.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, AminoCatalog’s total liability to Vendor arising out of or related to this Vendor Agreement, the Service, vendor features, paid features, listings, reviews, moderation, enforcement, or termination will not exceed the greater of: (a) the amount Vendor paid to AminoCatalog in the three months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some limitations may not apply.
26. Indemnification
Vendor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless AminoCatalog and its owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, licensors, service providers, and partners from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses, penalties, fines, settlements, judgments, and demands, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to:
- Vendor’s products.

27. Independent Contractors
Vendor and AminoCatalog are independent contractors. This Vendor Agreement does not create a partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, fiduciary, employment, distributor, reseller, broker, pharmacy, medical, laboratory, or marketplace relationship.
Vendor has no authority to bind AminoCatalog or make representations on AminoCatalog’s behalf.
28. Assignment
Vendor may not assign this Vendor Agreement without AminoCatalog’s prior written consent. AminoCatalog may assign this Vendor Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, corporate transaction, or by operation of law.
29. Changes to This Vendor Agreement
AminoCatalog may update this Vendor Agreement from time to time. If we make material changes, we may notify Vendor by posting the updated agreement, updating the effective date, sending an email, displaying a dashboard notice, or using another reasonable method.
Vendor’s continued use of vendor-facing features after the updated Vendor Agreement becomes effective means Vendor accepts the updated Vendor Agreement.
30. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
This Vendor Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
Before filing a claim, Vendor agrees to contact AminoCatalog at legal@aminocatalog.com and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. The notice must describe the dispute, the relief requested, and Vendor’s contact information.
If the dispute is not resolved informally within 60 days, the dispute will be resolved according to the binding arbitration provisions in Section 23 of the Terms of Service (AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules for vendors, individual capacity only, class-action waiver, with the carve-outs described there), unless a signed written agreement between Vendor and AminoCatalog provides otherwise.
Subject to that arbitration provision, Vendor agrees that any court proceeding will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada, and Vendor consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.
31. Notices and Compliance Contact
31.1 Notices to Vendor
AminoCatalog may send notices to Vendor through email, dashboard notifications, account messages, or other reasonable methods. Vendor is responsible for keeping its account email and contact information current.

Vendor must send notices to:
AminoCatalogVendor relations: vendors@aminocatalog.com
Legal: legal@aminocatalog.com
Security: security@aminocatalog.com
Review disputes: reviews@aminocatalog.com
31.3 Vendor Compliance Contact
Vendor must designate at least one employee or representative who is responsible for receiving regulatory, compliance, security, and dispute correspondence from AminoCatalog, and must keep that contact’s email and phone number current in the vendor dashboard. AminoCatalog may rely on the most recent compliance contact on file when sending notices under this Vendor Agreement.
32. Miscellaneous
This Vendor Agreement, together with the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Content Policy, vendor policies, and any applicable order forms or signed agreements, is the entire agreement between Vendor and AminoCatalog regarding vendor participation on AminoCatalog.
If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. AminoCatalog’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Headings are for convenience only. The word “including” means “including without limitation.”
