The Service allows you to associate with one or more stores in roles such as Owner, Employee, or Friend (community member). You agree to accurately represent your relationship to each store you join. We may verify ownership claims and may require additional documentation. We may revoke, suspend, or modify role assignments at any time if we determine, in our sole discretion, that a claim is inaccurate or has been disputed.
