2. About Us
Green Rush is not a licensed medical or adult use retailer. It is a service that connects medical and adult-use cannabis dispensaries (collectively, “Dispensaries”) with their patients, primary caregivers, and/or customers. It does not offer delivery services, set pricing, or maintain any inventory of cannabis to or for Qualified Patients, their Primary Caregivers and/or their customers. We offer you the convenience of receiving information about the Dispensaries. Through the Site and the App, Green Rush performs pre-verification checks (that are serviced through a third party) on behalf of the Dispensaries of Customers, Qualified Patients and/or their Primary Caregivers (together, “Customers”) as defined by the California’s Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (“MAUSCRA”), but we do not act in any way as a medical or adult- use cannabis retailer or delivery service and so we have no responsibility or liability for any delivery services provided to You. While we make every effort to provide you with information concerning Dispensaries, some Information may be outdated and/or irrelevant. Also, we neither endorse nor are responsible for the accuracy or reliability of any Information, content, quality of goods or services offered by the Dispensaries and cannot make any representations or warranties with respect to whether the Dispensaries are compliant with applicable rules and regulations. All questions regarding Dispensaries’ products and/or services featured on the Site, the App, and/or the Services should be directed to the appropriate Dispensaries and/or appropriate regulatory body.
3. Privacy Statement

You are responsible for reviewing the Terms periodically for any modification to these Terms that may affect your rights or obligations hereunder. You agree that you shall be deemed to be apprised of and bound by any modification by Green Rush to these Terms. ANY ACCESS OR USE OF THE SITE, THE APP, AND/OR THE SERVICES BY YOU AFTER NOTICE OF REVISIONS OR ADDITIONS TO THESE TERMS SHALL CONSTITUTE AND BE DEEMED TO BE YOUR AGREEMENT TO SUCH REVISIONS OR ADDITIONS. No modification to these Terms by any party other than by Green Rush shall be valid or enforceable against Green Rush unless expressly agreed to by Green Rush in a writing signed by a duly authorized officer of Green Rush.
5. Eligibility
The Applications, Sites and Services are intended solely and only available to individuals who are at least twenty-one (21) years of age, who can willingly and knowingly enter into legally binding contracts under applicable law. Please note that certain of the products offered through the Applications, Sites and Services require you to be at least twenty-one (21) years of age to access and use such Applications, Sites and Services. Please check the applicable Additional Terms for such Applications, Sites and Services for further information. Without limiting the foregoing, the Applications, Sites and Services are not available to minors or suspended members or users. Further, your account and user ID for any of the Application, Sites or Services may not be transferred or sold to another party. If you are registering as a business entity, you further represent that you have the authority to bind the business to these Terms and any other related or pertinent agreements. If you do not have such authority, you will be held individually liable for all actions taken under your user ID. You further represent that any party you invite to participate in any of the Services or related functions with you is also of legal age as described above.
Our Application, Sites, Products and Services may contain regulated products, which may include minimum purchasing and usage age requirements. An age verification check may occur during the registration process in order to confirm that you are of legal purchasing age and we may use your provided information to conduct age-verification for your purchases and may deny or cancel your purchases due to such regulations.

6. Termination
6.1 These Terms are effective until terminated by Green Rush. Green Rush may terminate these Terms without notice and at any time. In the event of termination, you are no longer authorized to access the Site, the App, and/or the Services and the restrictions imposed on you with respect to the Content, the Materials, the disclaimers, indemnities, limitations of liabilities, and the Binding Arbitration Clause (Sections19.2) set forth in these Terms shall survive termination. Green Rush shall also have the right without notice and at any time to terminate the Site, the App, and/or the Services or any portion thereof, or any products or services offered through Green Rush, Site, the App, and/or the Services, or to terminate any individual’s right to access or use the Site, the App, and/or the Services or any portion thereof.

Subsequent or different subscriptions will remain unaffected.
7. Compliance with All Laws
You agree to comply with all applicable international laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations regarding your use of the Site, the App, and/or the Service.
7.1 Compliance with Federal Law. You warrant that Green Rush is only to be used by residents of the State of California and that Dispensaries and Patients are regulated by the State of California. You also acknowledge that while medical marijuana has been authorized by the people and legislature of the State of California, the federal government continues to regulate drugs through the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”) (21 USC §811). In particular, United States federal law considers any use or interstate transportation of marijuana as a criminal offense, which could carry fines and/or subject you to arrest and/or prosecution by federal officials. Accordingly, you acknowledge that neither holding a valid state medical marijuana license nor transporting marijuana in interstate commerce is a defense under United States federal law.
7.2 Compliance with State Law. You expressly acknowledge that the use, possession, cultivation, transportation and distribution of cannabis is illegal in all States unless all participants are acting completely within the scope of the State’s respective medical and/or adult-use cannabis laws, rules and regulations. You must abide by and follow the laws of the state and municipality in which you are a resident. You expressly acknowledge and assume full responsibility for cooperating with the laws of the state and municipality of your residency.

14. Copyright Infringement Claims
Pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c)(2) (“DMCA”), Green Rush has designated to the U.S. Copyright Office an agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement relating to the Site, the App, and/or the Services (the “Designated Agent”). Upon receipt of a properly completed and delivered DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement, the Company will take whatever action it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, but subject to its obligations under the DMCA, including removal of the challenged material from the Applications or Sites.
All such notifications relating to the Site, the App, and/or the Services must be submitted in a manner consistent with the DMCA to the following Designated Agent in writing as follows:
Your physical or electronic signature;
Identification of the copyrighted work or works claimed to have been infringed;
Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing that copyrighted work, and URLs or similar information sufficient to permit us to locate that material on our Site, the App, and/or the Services;
Information to permit Green Rush’s agent to contact you: your address, telephone number and email address;
A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that is allegedly infringed.
The Notice, with all above items completed, must be delivered to the Company at the following address: Green Rush Legal Department legal@greenrush.com.
Please note that, pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any misrepresentation of material fact (falsities) in a Notice automatically subjects the complaining party to liability for any damages, costs and attorney’s fees incurred by us in connection with the Notice and allegation of copyright infringement.
15. Limitation on use of the Site
15.1 We have no obligation to monitor the Site, the App, the Services or any postings or other materials (such as Ratings) that you or other third parties transmit or post on the Site, the App, and/or the Services (collectively, the “Materials”). You acknowledge and agree that we have the right (but not the obligation) to monitor the Site, the App, the Services and the Materials you transmit or post; to alter or remove any such Materials; to disclose such Materials and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to any third party in order to operate the Site, the App, and/or the Services properly; to protect ourselves, our sponsors and our members and visitors; and to comply with legal obligations or governmental requests. The information and opinions posted in the Materials on the Site and the App are not necessarily those of Green Rush or its affiliates, and Green Rush makes no representations or warranties regarding such posted Materials. We neither endorse nor are responsible for messages or statements, or for any opinion, advice, information or other utterance made or displayed on the Site, the App, the Services, or forums by third parties, whether such third parties are visitors to the Site and the App, members of the Site or the App or others. We are not responsible for any errors or omissions in articles or postings, for hyperlinks embedded in messages, Materials or for any results obtained from the use of such information. Under no circumstances will we or our suppliers or agents be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on such information obtained from the Materials through the Site, the App, and/or the Services. You agree that, if there is a dispute between users of this Site, the App, and/or the Services, or between a user and any third party, including the Dispensaries, Green Rush is under no obligation to become involved, and you agree to release Green Rush and its affiliates from any claims, demands and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such dispute and/or the Site, the App, and/or the Services.
15.2 You represent and warrant to Green Rush that (a) the Materials do not and will not infringe any rights of any third party(ies), and that the Materials do not and will not libel, defame, or invade the rights (including, without limitation, the right of privacy or publicity) of any third party(ies); (b) all obligations relating to the Materials have been satisfied, including, without limitation, those with and relating to artists and personnel, licenses, and laboratory and other contracts; (c) you have the right to enter into these Terms and to grant the rights granted or agreed to be granted hereunder; and (d) you have made all necessary payments (and no additional payments are required to be made) to any and all guilds, unions, performing rights societies, bodies and/or groups representing actors, writers, directors, composers, musicians, artists, and other persons who participated in the production of the Materials.
15.3 By posting or submitting content on or to the Site, the App, and/or the Services (regardless of the form or medium with respect to such content, whether text, videos, photographs, audio or otherwise), you are giving Green Rush , and its affiliates, agents and third party contractors the right to display or publish such content on our Site, the App, and/or the Services and its affiliated publications (either in the form submitted or in the form of a derivative or adapted work), to store such content, and to distribute such content and use such content for promotional and marketing purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any video submissions to us made by you from time to time, you understand and agree that (unless you and we agree otherwise) we may, or may permit users to, based solely on functionality provided and enabled by our Site, the App, and/or the Services, compile, re-edit, adapt or modify your video submission, or create derivative works therefrom, either on a stand-alone basis or in combination with other video submissions, as we may determine and at our sole discretion in any medium now known or hereafter developed, and (unless you and we agree otherwise) you shall have no rights with respect thereto and we or our licensees shall be free to display and publish the same (as so compiled, re-edited, adapted, modified or derived) for any period.
15.4 You grant a non-exclusive license to Green Rush with regard to the Materials he/she has submitted for the term of his/her copyright, and that the Materials be used by Green Rush as it may determine and at its sole discretion in any medium now known or hereafter developed. Green Rush reserves the royalty-free right to sub-license, reproduce, disclose, transmit, publish, broadcast and distribute electronically any such Material for purposes including but not limited to education, publicity and promotion.
16. Ratings/Review/Feedback Policy
An important part of the Company community is the feedback system. Users have the ability to leave reviews and comments, and we want that process to be as open as possible (“Ratings”). Part of that openness is acknowledging that certain behaviors are not acceptable. Ratings are considered Materials and are governed by these Terms including, but not limited to, your agreement regarding the standards of conduct set forth herein. Ratings do not reflect the views of the Site, the App, or Green Rush. We strive to maintain a high level of integrity with our Ratings and other Materials. All Ratings must be legitimate. The Company retains the right to remove any content posted on or submitted through any of its Applications, Sites or Services. However, the only User Content likely to be removed is that which violates these Terms or the rules or guidelines on the applicable Application, Site or Service regarding reviews, comments, feedbacks and other User Content (the "Review Policies"). Please note, the Review Policies of each Application, Site or Service may differ. Please consult the relevant Application, Site or Service to learn about its applicable Review Policy.
Please note, the Company is under no obligation to enforce these Terms or any of the Review Policies on your behalf against another user. While the Company encourages you to let us know if you believe another user has violated these Terms or any of the Review Policies, we reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action at our sole discretion.

20. Indemnity and Release of Claims
You agree to indemnify and hold the Company (and its owners, directors, managers, officers, partners, employees, independent contractors and agents and successors and assigns of itself or its affiliates) harmless from any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, actions, judgments, awards, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to any claim or demand made by any third party due to or arising out of or otherwise relating to (i) your use or misuse of any of the Company’s Applications, Sites or Services, (ii) your User Content, (iii) your violation of these Terms or any Additional Terms, (iv) your violation of applicable laws or regulations; or (v) your willful misconduct. The Company reserves the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us or any other indemnitee hereunder and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims. You agree not to settle any matter without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action or proceeding upon becoming aware of it.

21. Force Majeure
None of Green Rush or Green Rush’s Representatives are or will be liable for any losses caused directly or indirectly as a result of causes or events beyond the control of Green Rush, including natural disasters, acts of God, war, terrorism actions, DNNEC attacks, or decrees of governmental bodies, exchange of market rulings, failure of the Internet, communication lines or utility systems, equipment and systems failures, unauthorized access, and theft (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). All of the obligations of Green Rush and Green Rush’s Representatives with respect to the effected elements under these Terms will be suspended for the duration of such Force Majeure Event.
22. Dispute Resolution
22.1 Informal Dispute Resolution. If you have any issues or problems concerning the Site, the App, and/or the Services, we encourage you to notify us immediately at help@greenrush.com. so that we can attempt to resolve your issue. Most issues or problems can be resolved quickly and amicably. However, in the event that that you or Green Rush or Green Rush’s Representatives are unable to come to an amicable resolution within 15 days of your submission, you or Green Rush or Green Rush’s Representatives may bring a formal proceeding.
22.2 Formal Dispute Resolution: Binding Arbitration. You agree that any and all disputes will be submitted to and finally determined by arbitration as set forth in Sections 19.3-19.9 below. In such case, you would incur additional expense in connection with such arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding and neither Green Rush and its Representatives nor you will have the right to appeal such decision, whether in a court or in another arbitration proceeding. You understand that, by agreeing to arbitrate disputes as provided in these Terms, you, Green Rush, and Green Rush’s Representatives are waiving any and all statutory and other rights that we may have to a trial by jury in connection with any such dispute, claim or controversy. You may decline this agreement to arbitrate by e-mailing us at optout@greenrush.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section and Sections 19.3-19.6; 19.8-19.9 and subject to Section 21, each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of the party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. You acknowledge and agree that you, Green Rush, and Green Rush’s Representatives are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class User in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless you, Green Rush, and/or Green Rush’s Representatives agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.
22.3 Arbitration Procedures. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Consumer_Demand_for_Arbitration_Form_0.pdf and a separate form for California residents at www.adr.org/sites/default/files/AAA%20Affidavit%20for%20Waiver%20of%20Fees%20Notice%20California%20Consumers.pdf.) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of California and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. (The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/active-rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section. The arbitration will be conducted by one impartial arbitrator (who may be a former judge, practicing attorney or person who is not an attorney), selected by mutual agreement or, if you and Green Rush cannot agree, the arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the AAA Rules.
22.4 Arbitration Process and Applicable Law. Unless you and Green Rush otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco, California by one arbitrator. If your claim does not exceed $25,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and Green Rush submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $25,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. The arbitrator will not award punitive damages to either party and you and Green Rush will each be deemed to have waived any right to such damages. The arbitrator will, in rending his or her decision, apply the substantive law of the State of California (excluding its choice of law rules that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction). The award of the arbitrator will be rendered within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. It will include a written explanation of his or her decision and specify the basis for any damages, which may include the costs and expenses of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above (Section 16) as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. The written decision of the arbitrator will be final, binding and non-appealable and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.
22.5 Arbitration Fees. Except for the limitations on fees as set forth in Section 19.4 above, your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. If your claim for damages is less than $75,000, however, Green Rush will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).
22.6 Confidentiality. The arbitration proceeding will be confidential. The existence of any matter submitted to arbitration, and the award, will be kept in confidence by you, Green Rush, and the arbitrator, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by applicable law.
22.7 Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Either you or Green Rush may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in San Francisco, California or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Site, the App, and/or the Services, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
22.8 No Class Actions. You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed.
22.9 Venue for Other Types of Disputes. In the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Green Rush agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of San Francisco County, California. Both you and Green Rush consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there.

26. Miscellaneous
