Promotional or marketing communications are strictly prohibited.
To protect customer privacy, any personal information collected for order fulfillment (such as addresses or phone numbers) must be used exclusively for that purpose. Once the order is completed, this data should be deleted.

Basically you may only have one Vendor account for your business, unless you have reasons to have two and all of them are in good standing. The justification for one person having many accounts include having different brands, supplying to different companies or being involved in activity involving Platsify where multiple accounts are necessary. If any of your account is not in compliance we shall be having to deactivate all your selling privileges until all the account issues are addressed.
As part of selling on the Platsify store, sellers communicate with buyers both directly and indirectly. Platsify requires that sellers follow the guidelines below for any communication with buyers. The Communication Guidelines policy is meant to protect buyers from fraud and abuse, and to protect you from unscrupulous actions from your competitors. Raising the bar for all communications to buyers benefits all our selling partners, resulting in a stronger marketplace.
Problem with order messages: You must communicate with buyers if the product ordered is not available to be shipped. Firstly, adjust the full order amount using Manage orders in Vendor Central. Secondly, follow these directions and select Problem with order to communicate with the buyer about your inability to fulfill the order. The message must contain a confirmation that the order amount was adjusted with the appropriate reason for the unavailability of the items. If you think you can fulfill the order but the shipment will be delayed beyond the advertized availability, you must notify the buyer about the delay. If the buyer decides to cancel the order, you should then start the refund process.
Note: Do not contact the buyer and request that they submit a cancellation request when you are out of stock.
You must process refunds for the order amount (minus any charges) by only using Refund feature in Vendor Central. You may communicate with the buyer about the return only when you need additional information to complete the return or you are offering a partial refund. Follow these directions and select Follow-up on return request.
