Effective Date: 01/01/2020
The www.juullabs.com website, and all related content, and associated services (collectively the “Corporate Website”), is a corporate website and service owned and operated by JUUL Labs, Inc. (“JUUL Labs,” “us” or “we”). JUUL Labs has adopted these Terms and Conditions to inform you of your rights and obligations when using the Corporate Website (“Terms and Conditions” or “Terms”). Your use of this Corporate Website constitutes your agreement and manifestation of your assent to the following Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions you may not use, and should immediately cease use of, the Corporate Website.
We may, and reserve the right to, from time to time modify, limit, change, discontinue, or replace the Corporate Website and these Terms at any time. In the event we modify, limits, change, or replace the Corporate Website or these Terms, your continued use thereafter constitutes your agreement to such modification, limitation, change, or replacement.
It is your responsibility to review these Terms and Conditions on a regular basis to keep yourself informed of any modifications, limitations, changes, or replacements.
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully to ensure that you understand each provision. These Terms contain a mandatory individual arbitration and class action/jury trial waiver provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions.
The JUUL Labs Corporate Website is operated for the purpose of providing general information about our company, technology, public policy positions and efforts related thereto, with a specific emphasis on efforts and policies related to combating underage use of nicotine. We also use this site to communicate with the public, policymakers, and other third-party stakeholders through publication of press releases and other communications. The Corporate Website is not operated for advertising or marketing purposes. Nothing on the Corporate Website should be regarded as an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any product manufactured by JUUL Labs. Such products are sold only in compliance with the laws of the particular jurisdictions in which they are sold. This Corporate Website is not intended to offer medical or psychological advice. This Corporate Website is intended for an audience 21 years of age or older.
If features on the Corporate Website require registration, by registering, and in consideration of your use of the Corporate Website, you agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself.
Without our written consent, no one may use frames or utilize framing techniques or technology to enclose any content included on the Corporate Website or utilize any Corporate Website content in any meta tags or any other “hidden text” techniques.
The Corporate Website may contain links to third party websites. Links on the Corporate Website contain citations to a number of third-party information sources, including websites, resources and other organizations with additional information. These links are provided as a convenience to you and as an additional avenue of access to the information contained therein. We do not intend links to be viewed as an endorsement of those websites or their content. If you decide to access third-party websites, you do so at your own risk. Different terms and conditions may apply to your use of any linked sites. You should review the site policies and terms of use of any linked sites.
Corporate Website users may forward comments or other communications to JUUL Labs. You agree that you will not transmit content to JUUL Labs that is illegal, obscene, threatening, defamatory, invasive of privacy, infringing of intellectual property rights, or otherwise injurious to third parties, or objectionable and does not consist of or contain software viruses, political campaigning, commercial solicitation, chain letters, mass mailings, or any form of “spam.” You agree that you will not use false contact information, impersonate a third-party person or entity, or otherwise mislead JUUL Labs as to the origin of a communication. Communications violating the restrictions of this paragraph shall constitute a violation of these Terms.
Any material or communication transmitted by you to this Corporate Website will not be treated as confidential as described in the Privacy Policy.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless JUUL Labs and its subsidiaries, agents, licensors, managers, and other affiliated companies, and their employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, obligations, costs or debt, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), regulatory penalties and enforcement actions arising out of or in connection with: (i) your use of and access to this Corporate Website, including any data or content transmitted or received by you; (ii) your violation of any term of these Terms, including without limitation your breach of any of the representations and warranties herein or your obligations under this Section; (iii) your violation of any third party right, including without limitation any right of privacy or intellectual property rights; (iv) your violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation; (v) any content that is submitted via your account including without limitation misleading, false, or inaccurate information; (vi) your willful misconduct; or (vii) your use and access to any linked website, including third-party sites.

Read this Section carefully because it requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from JUUL Labs. For any dispute with JUUL Labs, you agree to first contact us via the contact information below and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally.
Arbitration. In the unlikely event that JUUL Labs has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, you and JUUL Labs each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms, the breach or alleged breach thereof, or use of the Corporate Website (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS, except as provided herein (including the exclusion of any claims brought by JUUL Labs for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided in Section 9 below).
JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted in Wilmington, Delaware, unless you and JUUL Labs agree otherwise. If you are an individual using the Corporate Website for non-commercial purposes: (i) JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction consistent with the requirements in Section 9 below. A printed version of these Terms of Use shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based on or relating to use of the Corporate Website to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver. With respect to all persons and entities, regardless of whether they have accessed or used the Corporate Website for personal, commercial or other purposes, all claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action or other representative proceeding. This waiver applies to class arbitration, and, unless JUUL Labs’ agrees otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims.
You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and JUUL Labs are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding of any kind.
These Terms and Conditions will be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. Exclusive venue for any action to determine the enforceability of the arbitration provision in Section 8 or the arbitrability thereunder of any dispute, or to enforce an arbitral award rendered pursuant to these Terms and Conditions will be the state or federal courts of Wilmington, Delaware. You agree that Wilmington, Delaware is the proper forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the arbitration provision in Section 8 is found to be unenforceable. You agree not to bring any such actions in any other venue and you expressly agree to waive all objections to these venues.
You expressly consent to be subject to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Delaware. You agree that: (i) JUUL Labs and the Corporate Website shall be deemed solely based in Delaware; and (ii) JUUL Labs and the Corporate Website shall be deemed passive ones that do not give rise to personal jurisdiction over JUUL Labs, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Delaware.
The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). THE APPLICATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS IS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED.
We reserve the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Wilmington, Delaware for any actions for any such relief.
YOU HEREBY AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING, WHICH IS PERMITTED BY LAW: (i) to waive any and all claims, other than claims for personal injury, that you have or may have in the future against JUUL Labs, or any of its distributors, resulting from use of the Corporate Website; and (ii) to release JUUL Labs from any and all liability from any loss, damage, injury or expense, other than liability for personal injury, that you or any users of this Corporate Website may suffer as a result of the use of any of the foregoing, due to any cause whatsoever, including negligence or breach of contract on the part of JUUL Labs, in the design or manufacture of the Corporate Website.
In the event of your death or incapacity, these Terms shall be effective and binding upon your heirs, next of kin, executors, administrators, assigns and representatives.
You hereby expressly waive any and all rights and benefits conferred upon you by the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California (or any applicable analogous law), which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known to him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
You and JUUL Labs understand and agree that claims or facts in addition to or different from those which are now known or believed by each of them to exist may hereafter be discovered, but it is your intention to release all claims you have or may have against JUUL Labs, other than claims for personal injury, and any and all of its successors, subsidiaries, parents, affiliates, investors, branches or related entities, or those entities’ officers, directors, employees, stockholders, partners, members, consultants, agents, attorneys, employee benefit plans or assigns, whether those claims are known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT NEITHER JUUL LABS NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT PROVIDERS SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RELATING TO OR RESULTING FROM: 1) USE OF, ACCESS TO, OR INABILITY TO USE THIS CORPORATE WEBSITE; 2) USE OR INABILITY TO USE ANY OTHER WEBSITE YOU ACCESS FROM A LINK THROUGH THIS CORPORATE WEBSITE; OR 3) ANY ACTIONS WE TAKE OR FAIL TO TAKE AS A RESULT OF COMMUNICATIONS YOU SEND US; IN EACH CASE.

YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY OF THE ABOVE CLAIMS OR ANY DISPUTE WITH US IS TO DISCONTINUE YOUR USE OF THE CORPORATE WEBSITE.
