Granatelli Motor Sports may revoke permission to use its intellectual property at any time.
14. MINIMUM ADVERTISED PRICE POLICY
Warehouse Distributors must comply with the current Granatelli Motor Sports Minimum Advertised Price (“MAP”) Policy.
The MAP Policy is a separate, unilateral policy and does not establish the price at which a Distributor must actually sell a product.
Each Distributor remains independently responsible for setting its own resale prices.

Questions, complaints, or requests for exceptions concerning MAP must be directed only to the Granatelli Motor Sports representative designated in the MAP Policy.

16. ONLINE AND MARKETPLACE SALES

Vehicle fitment information

Granatelli Motor Sports may require removal or correction of a listing that is inaccurate, unauthorized, misleading, outdated, or harmful to the brand.
17. PRODUCT INFORMATION AND FITMENT
Granatelli Motor Sports makes reasonable efforts to provide accurate product information and vehicle-fitment data. However, vehicle configurations, modifications, production changes, and aftermarket combinations may affect fitment.
The Distributor is responsible for confirming product suitability before sale or installation.
Distributors should not guarantee fitment solely from a year, make, and model when engine, transmission, trim, emissions configuration, forced-induction system, or vehicle modifications may affect compatibility.
Granatelli Motor Sports is not responsible for errors introduced when a Distributor, marketplace, data provider, catalog provider, reseller, or third party alters or republishes product information.
18. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
Nonpublic price sheets, discounts, costs, dealer levels, inventory information, product-development information, customer information, account information, sales reports, and other proprietary materials are confidential.
The Distributor may use confidential information only for its authorized business relationship with Granatelli Motor Sports.
Confidential information may not be disclosed to competitors, customers, unauthorized third parties, public websites, online forums, social-media groups, marketplaces, or data aggregators without written authorization.
This obligation continues after suspension or termination of the account.

21. POLICY CHANGES
Granatelli Motor Sports may amend this policy at any time.
Updated policies may be distributed by email, dealer portal, website posting, price-sheet notice, invoice notice, or other reasonable business communication.
