SUNY Discount Program Guidelines

Businesses, merchants, and brands, etc. (herein known as Providers) wishing to make a special offer available to members of the SUNY family may do so within the SUNY Discount Program. By participating in SUNY Discount Programs, providers acknowledge and agree to abide by the SUNY Discount Program Guidelines:

• The special offer provided by the Provider represents an actual discount of the price of goods and services offered by the Provider to the general public;
• Provider participation in the SUNY Discount Programs does not constitute or create a contract or agent relationship between the Provider and SUNY or any of its campuses, as it is separate and distinct from the provision of any services through a vendor contract with SUNY and any of its campuses;
• SUNY may revise, modify, or discontinue offers and/or the SUNY Discount Program at any time or discontinue Provider participation in the program without advance notice;
• Provider must notify SUNY in writing of any discontinuation, manufacturer recalls or any other change related to Provider offer(s) and/or web site(s) used to communicate information regarding its products, prices, services, and discounts being offered;
• SUNY may list the details of Provider products, services, and special offers as determined to be appropriate;
• Providers must supply and maintain valid contacts, physical mailing address(es) and business telephone number(s);
• Provider will not solicit on campus or contact employee(s) in person, via email, or by written materials;
• Provider will not disclaim knowledge or reponsibility for the authenticity or legality of its product or service;
• Provider will comply with all federal and state laws including any licensing or certification requirements applicable to the products and services offered;
• Provider will not use the logo of SUNY or any of its campuses without consent, or otherwise imply that participation in the SUNY Discount Programs is an endorsement of the Provider's product or service by SUNY or any of its campuses. SUNY does not endorse, support, or benefit from any of the offers within the SUNY Discount Program.

Providers acknowledge and agree to abide by these guidelines upon completing and filing a SUNY Discount Programs Request Form with SUNY's Office of University Benefits.
