Aside from the pizza shirts, books, etc. the Red Flag for me is the Silicon Valley connection and the list of brands and associates that are linked to this site especially Disney, Marvel, and friends plus BSA and Unicef. We have done research on most of these and have marked them as definite contributors to the normalization of our children. The CEO of Zazzle needs to be researched and the family as well. I doubt we would come up dry, for their associations are suspect.

Some more information from https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/zazzle/

"Robert Beaver and his two sons founded Zazzle.com, a service which enables users to create their own products."

So he founded the company with his sons. I thought they were brothers at first. It also says that the company was founded in 1999.

Some more information regarding funding:

"Zazzle is funded primarily by Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers and Sherpalo Ventures, who in 2005 provided $16 million in seres A funding."

Here's the "About Us" section from their website : https://www.zazzle.com/about

Seems like Melanie Sherk handles their business contacts with Disney etc.

Jeff Beaver is the Chief Product Officer so I'd assume that he has a say in their product design.

Nizzi Karai Renaud is their Chief Marketing Officer so maybe she's the one who decides, or has a say in what is to be displayed on their website and/or Instagram.

It also says that their website first launched in 2005, just when the Google investors invested 16 million USD into the company.
