TW Vendor Code of Ethics
Adherence to strong ethical standards has been the foundation of Trinidad Weddings (TW). What has defined us has been a continued insistence on and commitment to doing business the right way and setting the standards for vendors within the wedding industry. By “vendor” we mean any firm or individual that advertises a product or service on our site or indirectly to any of our visitors.
TW expects that its vendors will share and embrace the letter and spirit of our commitment to this set of standards and principles. To this end, Trinidad Weddings has established a Code of Ethical Behavior for all advertised vendors on its site.
We understand that vendors are independent entities, but the business practices and actions of a vendor may significantly impact and/or reflect upon us, our reputation and our brand, which are our most important assets. Because of this, TW expects all vendors and their employees, agents and subcontractors to adhere to this Vendors’ Code of Ethics while they are conducting business with and/or on behalf of TW. All vendors should educate their representatives to ensure they understand and comply with this Code.
