This includes metrics that represent performance of any Amazon service (e.g. campaign performance data from Amazon Ads or sales information from Vendor Central or Seller Central).

Displaying aggregated results from multiple advertisers or data sources, requires that you clearly state the methodology for how you pulled your metrics to avoid creating confusion among readers. When reporting trends or comparisons you are clearly stating this is for your client population and don’t raise the impression this is across all Amazon clients or businesses. We reserve the right to ask for you to more clearly describe your methodology or for removal of Amazon metrics.

When presenting an analysis that represents your own point of view, you must use a disclaimer such as “[company name] original research. Analysis and opinions are [company name]’s own”.

To help customers find relevant and timely offers, some of Amazon Ads’s products enable advertisers to reach relevant audiences based on aggregated shopping activities and receive Amazon performance reporting for their advertising campaigns. Amazon audience solutions are only available for Amazon Ads campaigns and can only be accessed through Amazon’s advertising systems, by advertisers, agencies, or tool providers working with Amazon Ads directly. When discussing these solutions, please do not mischaracterize or misrepresent these offerings or your access to these offerings.

Please refer to the Amazon Ads website for any information needed to discuss these solutions

4.8 Press releases

Press releases or announcements referencing Amazon require Amazon review and explicit approval prior to release.
