  Challenge #1:  Refer to the BBB Code of Advertising Principle #1:  Basics Principles of the Code
  1.1 The primary responsibility for truthful and non-deceptive advertising rests with the advertiser. Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate any objective claims or offers made before publication or broadcast. Upon request, they should present such substantiation promptly to the advertising medium or BBB.
  1.2 Advertisements which are untrue, misleading, deceptive, fraudulent, falsely disparaging of competitors, or insincere offers to sell, shall not be used.
  1.3 An advertisement as a whole may be misleading by implication, although every sentence separately considered may be literally true.
  1.4 Misrepresentation may result not only from direct statements, but by omitting or obscuring a material fact.

  As of August 4, 2023, the company has not responded to our request for advertising substantiation.
