The company does not provide clear and detailed policies but only vague statements in terms of the suppliers having to answer a questionnaire prior to making an agreement as well as informing that the suppliers need to act according to law.

"We directly ask potential Goods Merchants whether they 'engage in child labour, forced labour and/or human trafficking' in our Groupon Vendor Vetting Questionnaire. We refuse to do business with potential Goods Merchants who respond that they in fact engage in any or all of these practices"

We ask our Merchants to confirm in our agreements with them that they comply with all applicable international, federal, state, local, and other laws, which would include laws related to child labour, slavery, forced labour and/or human trafficking"
