🛡️ Code 4 Preparedness — Company Policy & Core Principles

Mission Statement

Code 4 Preparedness exists to provide dependable, purpose-driven medical and preparedness gear to individuals, law enforcement, and community responders. We are guided by the values of honor, honesty, and disciplined readiness, with a mission to strengthen communities through training, responsibility, and service.

Core Values

1. Honor and Integrity
We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards. Every product, partnership, and interaction reflects our unwavering commitment to honesty, accountability, and the service-oriented mindset.

2. Civilian Empowerment with Professional Standards
We believe civilians should have access to gear and training that meets or exceeds the standards expected by law enforcement, EMS, and military professionals — because lives don’t wait for backup.

3. Community Improvement Through Readiness
We are committed to strengthening communities through preparedness education, first aid awareness, and local partnerships. Readiness is a civic duty, and we seek to raise that standard.

4. Commitment to Continuous Learning
We embrace growth through training, feedback, and skill development. Whether you’re a first responder or a first-time buyer, Code 4 exists to support your ongoing improvement.

5. No-Nonsense, Mission-Focused Commerce
Our products are curated with one question in mind: Would I trust this with a life on the line? If not, we won’t sell it. We source and build gear that performs under pressure, not for hype.

Commerce and Operations Policy

Product Guarantee:
We only sell gear that we would stake our own lives on. All medical items are sourced from trusted manufacturers and meet or exceed industry standards for trauma response and field use.

Returns & Exchanges:
Due to the nature of medical and survival gear, some products (especially sterile medical components) may not be eligible for return. We maintain a fair and case-by-case return policy to balance hygiene, safety, and customer satisfaction.

Law Enforcement & Military Discounts:
We proudly support those who serve. Active duty military, law enforcement, EMS, and veterans receive a standing discount with verified credentials. Contact us directly or through ID verification portals.

Civilians Welcome, Responsibility Required:
We believe every citizen has the right — and the responsibility — to be prepared. We welcome all law-abiding individuals to purchase our gear, and we encourage responsible ownership, training, and safe use.

Privacy & Security:
Your data and order information is never shared outside of our trusted payment and fulfillment partners. We maintain strict confidentiality and never sell your information.

Training Partnerships:
We actively seek partnerships with certified instructors, responders, and training groups to expand access to hands-on preparedness education. Want to host a training session or become an affiliate instructor? This is still in the works

Code 4 Preparedness products— including individual components, kits, or bundled systems—are not authorized for resale unless a written wholesale or reseller agreement has been executed and approved by Code 4 Preparedness.
