This Policy applies to all ANA MARIA KIM independent contractors, employees, agents, speakers, writers, bloggers, talent, endorsers and any other individual or entity engaged in promotional activities on behalf of ANA MARIA KIM, whether they are engaged by ANA MARIA KIM directly, or through an agency, representative of an agency, subsidiary, or franchise (collectively referred to herein as “Endorsers”).
This Policy is intended to outline the policies and procedures of ANA MARIA KIM with respect to any and all advertising messages or promotional communications made by Endorsers. It is also intended to address endorsements and testimonials made by Endorsers about ANA MARIA KIM, and/or its products and services, whether those endorsements and testimonials are made through “traditional media,” such as television commercials or print ads, or “new media,” or “social media,” such as websites, blogs, mobile applications or any other form of media that may be used by advertisers.
Endorsers are legally responsible for their opinions, comments and content. Individual Endorsers can be held personally liable by third parties for any commentary deemed to be defamatory; obscene; proprietary to, or owned by, others; or libelous to ANA MARIA KIM, its suppliers/partners or any other person or entity. For these reasons, Endorsers should exercise caution with regard to exaggeration, colorful language, guesswork, obscenity, materials used in content, conclusions, images and/or video, and derogatory remarks or characterizations.
In addition, Endorsers should at all times be mindful that, given advances in technology, opinions, comments or content may remain public, and may be archived, stored and retrievable, indefinitely.
(B) Standards of Conduct
With respect to statements or other claims made in advertising messages or promotional communications about ANA MARIA KIM and/or its products or services, Endorsers must adhere to the following principles:
(1) Endorsers may only make statements that reflect their honest beliefs, opinions, experiences or recommendations. ANA MARIA KIM encourages these statements to be in the first person. Endorsers may not make statements about experiences with a product that they have not personally tried, examined or evaluated.
(2) Endorsements by organizations must reflect the collective judgment of the organization, as approved by senior management.
(3) Endorsers may not make deceptive or misleading claims about ANA MARIA KIM’s products or services, or ANA MARIA KIM’s competitors’ products or services, to consumers.
(4) Endorsers may not make any claims about ANA MARIA KIM’s products or services, or ANA MARIA KIM’s competitors’ products or services, that are not substantiated (i.e., claims may not be made about a product that would require proof that the Endorser does not have).
(5) Endorsers may not engage in any communication that is defamatory or infringes upon the intellectual property, or privacy and publicity rights of others, including competitors.
(6) Endorsers may not offer for sale, or solicit, products or services on behalf of ANA MARIA KIM.
(7) Endorsers may not make offensive comments that have the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating or hostile environment, including telling lies or spreading rumors about ANA MARIA KIM or its affiliates and their respective Endorsers, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, licensees or competitors.
(8) Endorsers may not use ethnic slurs, personal insults, obscenity, or other offensive language.
(9) Endorsers may not make any comments or post any content that in any way promotes unsafe activities that could lead to an unsafe situation involving ANA MARIA KIM’s customers or other individuals.
(10) Endorsers may not make any comments or post any content that may violate applicable local, state or federal laws or regulations.
(11) Endorsers must adhere to the legal conditions on ANA MARIA KIM’s website and the posting guidelines and Terms of Use on any website on which they post content on behalf of ANA MARIA KIM.

(C) Disclosure Requirements
(1) Endorsers must clearly and conspicuously disclose and make readily apparent all “material connections” to ANA MARIA KIM in all advertising messages and promotional communications concerning ANA MARIA KIM and/or its products or services.
(A) A “material connection” is one that could influence the weight or credibility a reasonable consumer would give to the communications or messages made by the Endorser. Such connections may be in the form of (a) consideration (such as monetary compensation, including fees or commissions; gift cards; event access; prizes; or free or discounted products or services) provided by ANA MARIA KIM (or any of its agents acting on its behalf) to the Endorser, or (b) a relationship between ANA MARIA KIM and the Endorser (such as employment or contractual relationships).
(B) Some examples of appropriate material connection disclosures are:
- I received [product] from ANA MARIA KIM as a gift
- [Thanks to][Courtesy of] ANA MARIA KIM, I was given this [product]
- ANA MARIA KIM sent me [product] to try
- Some of the products reviewed in this blog post were sent to me by ANA MARIA KIM
- This post is a paid advertisement for ANA MARIA KIM
- I am an employee of ANA MARIA KIM
These are simply examples of appropriate disclosures and variations on these examples may be appropriate based on the context. The key is to make it apparent to the reasonable consumer that ANA MARIA KIM provided the subject product or service, as opposed to the Endorser independently purchasing or obtaining the subject product or service.
(C) It is not sufficient to make a single disclosure on a home page or legal terms/disclaimer page that, for example, “many of the products I discuss on this site are provided to me free of charge by their manufacturers.” Disclosures should be tied to the specific products at issue and readily apparent to readers of the particular blog post.
(D) When using a Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or similar platform, Endorsers should endeavor to include a link on their main profile page directing followers to a comprehensive disclosure statement.
(2) Endorsers who post their own opinions, comments, content or recommendations about ANA MARIA KIM, and/or its products or services, must disclose that their views do not necessarily represent those of ANA MARIA KIM.
(D) Third Party Endorsers
Endorsers that employ or contract with third parties to have such third parties deliver advertising messages or other promotional communications to consumers (e.g., advertising agencies, network marketing agencies and blogger networks) are also required to cause those third parties to agree to this Policy before engaging them to communicate to consumers about ANA MARIA KIM and/or its products or services.
(E) Trademarks and Intellectual Property
All emblems, logotypes, insignia, designs, devices, colors, artwork, trademarks, trade names, service marks, trade dress and copyrights, and the commercial goodwill associated therewith, that at any time were or are owned, applied to be registered or registered (irrespective of class of goods/services), controlled, cleared for use by, or on behalf of, or licensed by ANA MARIA KIM or any of its affiliates may only be used or posted by Endorsers with the prior written consent of ANA MARIA KIM in each instance, strictly in accordance with the specific guidelines provided by ANA MARIA KIM.
(F) Confidentiality
Endorsers may develop, have access to, or directly or indirectly be exposed to, information of a proprietary and confidential nature about ANA MARIA KIM (including without limitation its business operations and activities, strategic plans and financial information) which, if disclosed, could have a negative effect on ANA MARIA KIM. Endorsers shall keep confidential and not disclose any such information and, upon termination of an Endorser’s relationship with ANA MARIA KIM, the Endorser shall promptly return to ANA MARIA KIM any confidential information in the Endorser’s possession. In the event that there is any question as to whether particular information is confidential in nature, Endorsers must promptly contact ANA MARIA KIM for clarification and approval before posting, commenting, blogging or uploading content.
(G) Press Inquiries
Endorsers’ endorsements and testimonials may generate media coverage. Media inquiries of any kind regarding endorsements or testimonials relating to ANA MARIA KIM, whether from online (news engines, bloggers) or mainstream (newspapers, magazines) media outlets, must be referred to ANA MARIA KIM using the Notice information below. Endorsers may not engage in any discussions or correspondence with any members of the media, or make any public oral or written statement, in each case regarding endorsements or testimonials relating to ANA MARIA KIM, without first consulting with, and receiving permission from, the appropriate authorized ANA MARIA KIM representative in each instance.
(H) Questions

(6) california DISCLOSURES
(A) CALIFORNIA transparency in supply chains act of 2010
The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 (SB 657) requires California businesses to disclose their efforts to address the issues of slavery and human trafficking, thereby allowing consumers to make better, more-informed choices regarding the products they buy and the companies they choose to support.
Ana Maria Kim has taken steps to evaluate the risks of forced labor in our supply chain. Within Ana Maria Kim, procurement falls into two broad categories: (1) sourcing of raw materials such as gold, diamonds, precious stones, textiles, and leather; and (2) procurement of other types of goods and services to support the day-to-day running of our operations, such as energy, manufacturing, and office equipment. Although the social impact of the goods and services that Ana Maria Kim purchases often lies outside our direct control, where possible, we have taken proactive steps to ensure the absence of slavery and human trafficking in our supply chain.
Ana Maria Kim expects and depends on our managers and employees to uphold a zero-tolerance policy regarding forced labor. As such, Ana Maria Kim has taken steps to increase employee awareness and compliance regarding slavery and human trafficking issues. Ana Maria Kim’s Business Practices Ethics Guide is provided to all employees and suppliers. Employees are encouraged to report violations of the Business Practices Ethics Guide. Ana Maria Kim provides a confidential way for Ana Maria Kim’s personnel to report nonconformance to management and, where appropriate, Ana Maria Kim provides and requires specific training programs regarding supply chain issues.
(B) SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESPOSIBILITY ACT
A responsible attitude towards people, the local area, the environment and community has always been part of Ana Maria Kim’s system of values, in addition to craftsmanship, quality and our hand-made products.
The customer is used to the excellence of Ana Maria Kim products, but is increasingly interested in what goes into their creation.
For this reason, Ana Maria Kim wishes to consolidate its efforts towards Social Responsibility by striving to disseminate practices, integrating them with active participation in economic, cultural, social and environmental development from the point of view of sustainability.
Sustainability is the hallmark of the corporate culture of the women and men working at Ana Maria Kim and contributes to our commitment to excellence, reinforcing it and keeping it constant over time. Sustainability permeates every aspect of our daily work and is an integral part of the tools we use to do our job, the security conditions which protect us, our satisfaction and our professional growth. In terms of external players, sustainability inspires the way we set out the relationship with our stakeholders, whether they are investors, customers, suppliers, institutions, future generations, employees, communities or, more generally, all Ana Maria Kim partners. In managing the economic, social and environmental responsibilities that characterize our business, we apply the same commitment and the same methods used to manage the business.
In this scenario we believe it is necessary to support and promote, inside the company and along the supply chain and in the organizational and marketing process, a corporate growth model which combines the need for excellence with the creation of value through the promotion of a “Sustainable Value", i.e. a value which takes into account both the interests of employees and economic and financial, social and environmental interests
We recognize that the philosophy of “Sustainable Value” is at the heart of our management policies and our corporate conduct. Together we are committed to raising awareness and creating a culture of sustainability within the Ana Maria Kim system - employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, subcontractors, commercial and financial partners, local communities, institutions, trade associations, trade unions - promoting a Social Responsibility Policy valuing the following aspects:
Business Ethics: all activities occurring anywhere in the world within the Ana Maria Kim system must be conducted with honesty, integrity and in full compliance with the applicable Laws, Regulations and Directives.
Respect for Human Rights: the activities carried out anywhere in the world must be aimed at supporting and respecting the principles of the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" of the United Nations, in full compliance with Laws, Directives and Collective Labor Agreements and Supplementary Agreements, to protect human rights, people and the environment, and in compliance with:
- ILO Convention No. 1, 29, 105, 87, 98, 100, 111, 102, 131, 135, 138, 155, 159, 169, 177, 182, 183, ILO Recommendation No. 116, 146, 164, regulating child labor, forced labor, workers’ health and safety, freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining, discrimination, maternity protection, disciplinary practices, working hours and salaries
- International Conventions on economic, social, cultural, civil and political rights
- The United Nations Convention on child rights and the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women and all forms of racial discrimination
- Key Principles of Social Responsibility set out by the OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development)
- The principles of the UN Global Compact, in terms of ethics, human rights and environmental protection
Respect for Workers’ Rights and Equal Opportunities: Ana Maria Kim is actively committed to promoting and paying the maximum attention to respecting workers’ rights and the principles behind the system of protection for workers within the Ana Maria Kim system, taking positive action to ensure the freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining and rejecting all forms of child labor, forced labor and discrimination, ensuring that all workers have the same opportunities for employment and professional development, as well as equal treatment based on merit.
Respect for and Protection of Workers’ Health and Safety: Ana Maria Kim is actively committed to promoting and paying the maximum attention to complying with the standards of health and safety of workers and the communities in which we operate, including in terms of prevention, through initiatives aimed at improving their physical and mental health.
Respect for and Enhancement of Professional Skills: Ana Maria Kim is actively committed to recognizing and promoting the development of each worker’s professional skills and competencies, improving behavioral factors and ensuring that the potential and creativity of individuals are fully realized from a professional point of view.
Valuing Diversity: Ana Maria Kim is committed to recognizing the value of diversity and to performing all activities while fully respecting the cultures, traditions, religions, ethnic groups and communities in which it operates and to preserving their biological, environmental, social, cultural and economic identities.
Cooperation and Solidarity Promotion: Ana Maria Kim is committed to promoting, protecting and improving the quality of life and the socio-economic development of local, national and international communities.
Respect for and Protection of the Environment: Ana Maria Kim is committed to promoting and paying the maximum attention to the environment and ecosystems, whenever linked to business interests or activities, and to pursuing the highest possible standards for handling environmental issues. Right from the raw material procurement stage, Ana Maria Kim is committed to complying with every international convention, directive, law, rule and regulation on the environment and sustainable development, respecting local flora and fauna. Ana Maria Kim believes that the commitment to fighting against climate change is not only essential for safeguarding the planet, but also and especially for ensuring competitiveness and further developing the business.
Respect for Stakeholders: Ana Maria Kim is committed to pursuing a conscientious and transparent relationship with stakeholders, enriching corporate culture through this constant confrontation. All activities must be conducted in full compliance with all stakeholders interacting with the Ana Maria Kim system - employees, unions, shareholders, customers, suppliers, subcontractors, commercial and financial partners, local communities, non-governmental organizations, institutions, associations, etc. - in the belief that they represent a key asset of the company which should be promoted and developed.
Supplier Involvement: Ana Maria Kim is committed to continuing the adoption and monitoring of the policies focused on the economic sustainability of the supply chain, encouraging the sharing of processes leading to the determination of appropriate fees, based on transparent methods which reconcile business requirements, compliance with rules and business sustainability.
The Company is therefore committed to implementing a Social Responsibility Management System which involves the adoption of policies and procedures for the effective implementation, monitoring and continuous improvement of the principles contained in the Social Responsibility Policy, both internally and in its supply chain.
