How the Program Works. We sell Mockingbird-branded baby gear and related accessories (“Products”) through our Website and authorized retailers. We have created the Program to provide an opportunity for Customers to connect with Brand Ambassadors who can share their experience with our Products, answer Customer questions, offer personal photos/videos showing the Product in use (not supplied by Mockingbird or approved by Mockingbird), and provide testimonials and firsthand accounts about their experience with Mockingbird and the Products.

Once introduced by Mockingbird, the Brand Ambassador and Customer may communicate and interact directly with each other via email, video conference, text message or any other communications platform on a mutually agreed upon day and time. The Brand Ambassador or Customer may decline or cease to communicate for any reason. Mockingbird’s responsibilities are limited to facilitating the initial introduction between the Brand Ambassador and Customer. You understand and agree that Mockingbird is not acting as an insurer or contracting agent. If the Brand Ambassador and Customer enter into any agreement or arrangement, including meeting in person, written or unwritten, such agreement or arrangement is between the Brand Ambassador and the Customer, and Mockingbird is not a party to it or responsible for its contents or consequences.
