As part of listing your products on the Baby Bunting Marketplace, we will request test reports conforming with the safety and compliance standards set by regulatory bodies in Australia. 


Furthermore, any claims, such as greenwashing claims, about a product must be supported by a report or claim substantiation certificate from the manufacturer or supplier (wherever applicable), and you may refer to our Marketplace Advertising Guidelines for more information.

 

Baby Bunting will conduct regular audits and may request additional information to verify the safety and compliance of your products. If this information is not provided within a given timeline, Baby Bunting has the authority to remove your products from our website under clause 4.5 of the Marketplace participation agreement.
