- Membership and billing
After registering for and “logging on” to your The Golden Bazaar account, you can review and modify the specific details of your Membership status, purchases and billing information at any time by clicking the “Pricing Plan” link in your The Golden Bazaar account webpage. Without limiting the following, you agree to The Golden Bazaar’s Fees and Cancellations policy.
The Golden Bazaar encourages the initial use of the Services through a “free trial” Membership. Free trials are only available to first time users of the Services and cannot be combined with any other promotional offer. Only one (1) free trial may be redeemed by you or your affiliates (e.g., a retailer, such retailer’s organization and its agents).
In order to redeem a free trial offer, you must have Internet access and a valid form of currently-accepted payment, such as an accepted credit card or debit card. Upon redemption of the free trial offer, your Payment Method may be authorized in an amount up to the Membership price of the initial term of the Plan (as defined below) for which you were given a free trial. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may reflect the authorization; however, no charges will be made against your Payment Method until the end of the free trial period. The day you start your free trial (based on Mountain time) is considered “Day 1” of the trial, regardless of the time of day you register. Once the free trial has ended, you will be automatically billed the monthly Membership price applicable to the Plan for which you were given a free trial.
The Golden Bazaar offers a number of Membership subscription plans that may vary from time to time in the sole discretion of The Golden Bazaar, including special promotional plans with variable pricing, subscription duration and bundled products and services (collectively, each a “Plan”). A given Plan may not be available for your Membership at any given time, and The Golden Bazaar is under no obligation to offer you the same Plan offered or subscribed to by another The Golden Bazaar customer. The Golden Bazaar reserves the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend offered Plans. If a promotional Plan is made available to you during your free trial and you elect to upgrade to such promotional Plan, you acknowledge that your free trial will terminate immediately upon submission of payment in respect of such promotional Plan. To the extent third party products and/or services are bundled with a Plan, The Golden Bazaar explicitly disclaims any and all responsibility and liability with respect to such third-party products and services. For The Golden Bazaar Memberships purchased over the phone: YOU, THE BUYER, MAY CANCEL THIS CONTRACT AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT OF THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY AFTER THE DATE OF THE TRANSACTION OR RECEIPT OF THE PRODUCT, WHICHEVER IS LATER. All requests must be in writing or email, and must be postmarked or electronically date stamped within the cancellation period. All requests for cancellation must be sent via email to Customer Support.
- Billing (for more information, please see The Golden Bazaar's Fees and Cancellations policy)
Upon registering for your Membership and selecting an available Plan, your Payment Method will be charged an automatic recurring monthly or yearly subscription fee applicable to your selected Plan, any applicable tax and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services (collectively, and as modified from time to time in the sole discretion of The Golden Bazaar, the “Subscription Fee”). The Subscription Fee is charged on the monthly or annual anniversary of the commencement of your Membership (or, if such date does not occur in a given month, the last day of the applicable month) automatically and without notice to you, unless and until either you cancel or The Golden Bazaar terminates your Membership. You must cancel your Membership prior to the end of the then-current billing period to avoid being charged for the following billing period, and such amounts shall accrue regardless of the validity of your Payment Method. You can verify the date on which the next Subscription Fee will be charged at any time by clicking the “Billing Details” link in the “My Account” section of your The Golden Bazaar account webpage.
ALL FEES AND CHARGES (INCLUDING SUBSCRIPTION FEES) ARE NONREFUNDABLE. The Golden Bazaar reserves the right to modify Subscription Fees and any other fees and charges in effect, or add new fees and charges from time to time; provided that The Golden Bazaar will give you advance notice of these changes by email or as a notification when you log-in to the The Golden Bazaar website. You are responsible for all taxes associated with your use of the Services and products purchased in connection therewith.
It is your responsibility to maintain a current Payment Method on file. Payment Methods may be updated at any time by clicking the “Change Payment Method” button in the “Pricing Plan” section of your The Golden Bazaar account page. If any charge to your Payment Method fails, then (a) you grant The Golden Bazaar the right to re-attempt to process and bill your Payment Method for up to 180 days, and (b) you will be responsible to pay all fees and expenses (including collections fees) incurred by The Golden Bazaar in connection with obtaining payment in full for all accrued but unpaid amounts. Any amounts overdue by more than 30 days shall accrue interest from the initial date of nonpayment at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) and the highest rate allowable under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, The Golden Bazaar may suspend or terminate your Membership and/or your The Golden Bazaar account at any time without notice in connection with nonpayment of Subscription Fees or any other amounts due to The Golden Bazaar hereunder.

- Product and Venue Disclaimers
The Services include a venue or marketplace to connect you and other retailers with suppliers of wholesale and bulk products (each, a “Supplier”).

In such cases, The Golden Bazaar will take reasonable steps to acquire requested information from a Supplier on your behalf.
Regardless of whether you are permitted to contact a Supplier, and in The Golden Bazaar’s sole discretion, your account may be suspended or terminated if you, or anyone on your behalf, contacts or attempts to contact a Supplier outside of the tools provided in the Services, if any, and/or attempts to establish a direct relationship with a Suppliers outside of the Services.

The foregoing applies universally regardless of the method of order placement (e.g., single orders, batch orders, APIs).
Each Supplier determines its own return, replacement and refund policies applicable to the products you purchase from such Supplier and may modify those policies at any time. You are responsible for becoming familiar with each such policy prior to placing an order and agree to abide by such policies with respect to applicable orders. Failure to comply with any such policy may result in a rejected or reduced return, preplacement or refund. You can view a Supplier’s policies at any time by clicking the “Supplier Info” link in the “Products” section of The Golden Bazaar’s website.
All payment for orders shall be made via your Payment Method or by wire transfer; provided that The Golden Bazaar may limit or suspend wire transfers for orders over $2,000 or that The Golden Bazaar deems, in its sole and absolute discretion, to have high fraud risk.

We also use registration information to let you know about new features or other offers of interest from us and to address customer service needs and requests.
Contrary to popular myth, cookies do not extract private or personal information from your computer's memory, but rather, record only information you volunteer to us upon registering or visiting the site. Cookies are tiny files placed onto the hard drive of your computer when you register at our Web site that enable our server to recognize or “remember” who you are each time you return. Cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.
Like most standard website servers we use log files. This includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.
- Communications from The Golden Bazaar
- Special offers and updates
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. We also send all registrants special offers and updates regarding our services. If you are a former customer, you will continue to receive special offers and updates regarding our services unless you choose to unsubscribe from such communications.
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and email address. Out of respect for our users privacy, we provide a way to opt-out of these communications.
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service-related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.
We communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services and in regard to issues relating to their account we reply via email or phone, in accordance with the user's wishes.
During the registration process, we collect phone information so that we may call you for account management purposes. We also will call you during the first several weeks of your trial or service to provide answers to any questions, as well as to offer additional promotions only available via phone. After the first several weeks of your trial or service, we, or our authorized marketing partners, may periodically contact you for the purposes of improving our services by asking you to answer questions or complete surveys or by offering you other services that we feel you may benefit from.
- Sharing–Third parties
The Golden Bazaar will not disclose your personal information provided in connection with membership registration or purchases, except with your knowledge and consent as described in this Privacy Policy or as may be required by law, or to protect the rights or property of The Golden Bazaar. Information submitted by you online (such as information about products you purchase from us, your name, address, email address) may be shared with companies with which we have a commercial relationship, including companies through which you reached The Golden Bazaar. For example, if you make a purchase with us because of a special offer made through another site acting as a distributor of our products, in that circumstance you will be considered their customer as well. We will not, except as may be required by law, share with any other party your password or payment information. We may also share information about you (including name, email address, phone number, and postal address) to our marketing partners or other companies with whom we have a commercial relationship so they may contact you about information and services that we feel you would benefit from. We also reserve the right to disclose aggregated user statistics, such as “45% of our users are female” in order to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties. Under protection of confidentiality agreements, The Golden Bazaar may match common user information, such as name, address and phone number with third party data to avoid duplication and prevent errors.
- Our commitment to data security
The Golden Bazaar takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the website, their information is protected both online and off- line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just “surfing.”
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment, behind a locked cage in a locked facility.
The Golden Bazaar reserves the right to make any amendments, modifications or changes to this Privacy Policy at any time. If any material change is made to this Privacy Policy, we will notify our users about those changes via email. If you do not agree to such changes, you can modify your notification settings to opt out of certain notices from The Golden Bazaar or its marketing partners. If users have any questions about the security at our website, please contact Customer Support.
- Our commitment to children's privacy
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13. In order to subscribe to The Golden Bazaar's services, the member must be 18 with a valid credit card.
- How you can access or correct your information
You can access your personally identifiable information collected by The Golden Bazaar by logging into your account and visiting the “Settings” section of the website. You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows error. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.
- How to contact us
Should you have other questions or concerns about these privacy policies, please contact Customer Support.
