Ya’Mar Seller Standards & Performance Policy

Effective Date: May 20, 2026

This Seller Standards & Performance Policy (“Policy”) is incorporated by reference into the Ya’Mar Terms of Service and applies to all sellers using the Ya’Mar Marketplace application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”). By listing, advertising, promoting, shipping, fulfilling, or selling items through the Platform, sellers agree to comply with this Policy and all incorporated Terms and Policies. Ya’Mar LLC (“Ya’Mar,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) may update this Policy periodically for operational needs, fraud prevention purposes, payment processor requirements, marketplace integrity, customer experience improvements, shipping integrations, legal compliance, customs obligations, or Platform security purposes. Continued use of the Platform after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy where permitted by law.

Sellers remain solely responsible for ensuring inventory is lawfully sourced, legally owned, authentic where represented, and legally eligible for sale.

4. Shipping and Fulfillment Standards
