This website (the “Company Site”) and any desktop, mobile, or other computer software application(s) provided by or through Company, including its brands MellyGo, Talaria, National Secure Transport (collectively, with the Company Site, the “Company Platform”) are each a copyrighted work belonging to Talaria Inc. and/or its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, “Company”, “us”, “our”, and “we”). In addition, we partner with other companies and operate websites that are branded with their trademarks (“Partners”), but that are otherwise under our operational and functional control (each, a “Partner Site”, and together with the Company Platform, the “Platform”). The Platform, certain features of the Platform, or any products sold through the Platform may be subject to additional guidelines, terms, or rules, which will be posted on the Platform in connection with such features. All such additional terms, guidelines, and rules are incorporated by reference into these Terms of Use (the “Terms”). For example, our Privacy Policy describes how we collect and use information which you may submit while using the Platform. By using the Platform, you indicate that you have read our Privacy Policy and agree to be bound by its terms as though fully set forth in these Terms.
THESE TERMS SET FORTH THE LEGALLY BINDING TERMS AND CONDITIONS THAT GOVERN YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM, YOU ARE ACCEPTING THESE TERMS (ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY THAT YOU REPRESENT), AND YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT, AUTHORITY, AND CAPACITY TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS (ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY THAT YOU REPRESENT) AND THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OLD OR AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD WITH A VALID DOCTOR’S RECOMMENDATION PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW. YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR USE THE PLATFORM OR ACCEPT THE TERMS IF YOU ARE NOT AT LEAST 21 YEARS OLD OR AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD WITH A VALID DOCTOR’S RECOMMENDATION PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS, YOU ARE PROHIBITED FROM ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE PLATFORM.

Any controversy, allegation, or claim that arises out of or relates to the Platform, Company Products (defined below), these Terms, or any additional terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising (collectively, a “Dispute”), except for any controversy, allegation, or claim that arises out of or relates to our actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an “Excluded Dispute”), shall be finally resolved by arbitration. The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and that these Terms do not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator or arbitral panel may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. In the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of the foregoing arbitration provisions will remain in force.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF FEDERAL AND STATE LAW. You expressly acknowledge that the Platform is for use by residents of states which have enacted laws regulating the legal use of medical or recreational cannabis pursuant to their respective state laws. Under the United States Controlled Substances Act, Marijuana is classified under Schedule 1 and therefore possession, distributing, or manufacturing of marijuana, including interstate transportation of marijuana, is illegal under United States federal law. Individuals engaged in said activities are subject to arrest and prosecution. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM OR PRODUCTS, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THE VARIOUS LEGAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF CANNABIS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS, AND IN ALL SCENARIOS, YOU WILL ASSUME FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR COOPERATING WITH AND ABIDING BY ALL SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS.

Furthermore, you expressly acknowledge and agree that any and all statements concerning cannabis products, accessories, or any other items sold or made available through the Platform, have not been evaluated, approved, or endorsed by the FDA or any other regulatory agency. All such statements are provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon for any medical advice, health care, or similar treatment. If you suffer from any medical condition or illness, or if you are pregnant, nursing, and/or taking medications of any kind, you must consult with a physician before using any cannabis products, accessories, or any other items sold or made available through the Platform. Some products have been linked to illness or even death. ANY AND ALL CANNABIS USE (INCLUDING ANY AND ALL METHODS FOR INGESTION) IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK! ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF LOCAL LAWS.

You also understand your express written consent is not a direct or indirect condition of making any purchase from Company. While you consent to receive messages sent using an automatic telephone dialing system, the foregoing shall not be interpreted to suggest or imply that any or all of our mobile messages are sent using an automatic telephone dialing system (“ATDS” or “auto-dialer”).

Copyright Policy
Company respects the intellectual property of others and asks that users of our Platform do the same. In connection with our Platform, we have adopted and implemented a policy respecting copyright law that provides for the removal of any infringing materials and for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of users of our online Platform who are repeat infringers of intellectual property rights, including copyrights.
If you believe that one of our users is, through the use of our Platform, unlawfully infringing the copyright(s) in a work, and wish to have the allegedly infringing material removed, the following information in the form of a written notification (pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)) must be provided to our designated Copyright Agent:
the physical or electronic signature of the owner or the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright;
identification of the copyrighted work(s) that you claim to have been infringed;
identification of the material on our Platform that you claim is infringing and that you request us to remove;
sufficient information to permit us to locate such material (the URL where the material is located is helpful for this purpose);
your address, telephone number, and email address;
a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the objectionable material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or under the law; and
a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are either the owner of the copyright that has allegedly been infringed or that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Please note that, pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any misrepresentation of material fact (falsities) in a written notification automatically subjects the complaining party to liability for any damages, costs and attorney’s fees incurred by us in connection with the written notification and allegation of copyright infringement.
The designated Copyright Agent for Company may be reached at contact@mellygo.com.
Only copyright complaints should be sent to the Copyright Agent. No other communications will be accepted or responded to.
If you fail to comply with the requirements above, your notice may not be valid and not be acknowledged. Once proper notice is received by the Copyright Agent, it is our policy:
To remove or disable access to the infringing material.
To notify the content provider, member, or user that access to the material has been removed or disabled.
That repeat offenders will have the infringing material removed from the Platform and that we will terminate such content provider, member, or user’s access to the Platform.
Counter-notices: If you believe that material that was removed or to which access has been disabled is either not infringing, or you believe that you have the right to post and use such material from the copyright towner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, you must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent:
Your physical or electronic signature;
Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
Your name, address, and telephone number; and
A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court in the judicial district in which you address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which you may be found and that you will accept service of process from the person who provide the initial notification of alleged infringement.
If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, we may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in ten (10) business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member, or user, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in ten (10) to fourteen (14) business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our discretion.
Disputes
Limitation of Claims; Dispute Resolution. Please read this Section carefully. It is part of your contract with Company and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND A LIMITATION ON CLAIMS. SUBJECT TO ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION, YOU HEREBY AGREE THAT REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OR LAW TO THE CONTRARY, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AGAINST COMPANY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, COMPANY PRODUCTS, OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE, OR BE FOREVER BARRED.
Governing Law; Jurisdiction.
These Terms are governed by Pennsylvania law, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You and Company agree that, except as otherwise provided below, the state and federal courts located in the County of Montgomery, Pennsylvania will have exclusive jurisdiction of all Disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the Platform and agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of these courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall be allowed to apply for equitable remedies (including injunctions) in any jurisdiction.
Arbitration Procedures.
You and Company agree that, except as provided in Section (20.6) below, all Disputes, (each a “claim”), shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which may be initiated by either party by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to the other party. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration will be conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (the “JAMS Rules”) and under the terms set forth in these Terms. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Section 20 (Disputes) and the JAMS Rules, the terms in this Section will control and prevail. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 20.6 below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Company will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the claim, the award given and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based. The determination of whether a claim is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Except as otherwise provided in these Terms, (a) you and Company may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator, and (b) the arbitrator’s decision shall be final, binding on all parties and enforceable in any court that has jurisdiction, provided that any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to follow applicable law.
Location.
The arbitration will take place in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania unless the parties agree to video, phone or internet connection appearances.
Limitations.
You and Company agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the claim between Company and you individually. YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT (a) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES, (b) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, AND (c) NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.
Exceptions to Arbitration.
You and Company agree that the following claims are not subject to the above provisions concerning negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Excluded Dispute, (b) any claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, unauthorized use, or violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, (c) defamation, or (d) any claim for equitable relief. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for claims that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration.
Arbitration Fees.
If you initiate arbitration for a claim, you will need to pay the JAMS arbitration initiation fee. If we are initiating arbitration for a claim, we will pay all costs charged by JAMS for initiating the arbitration. All other fees and costs of the arbitration will be charged pursuant to the JAMS Rules.
Waiver of Jury Trial.
THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND COMPANY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the Dispute be resolved by a judge.
Confidentiality.
All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce these Terms, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
Severability.
You and Company agree that if any portion of this Section is found illegal or unenforceable (except any portion of Section 20.6), that portion shall be severed and the remainder of the Section shall be given full force and effect. If Section 20.6 is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor Company will elect to arbitrate any claim falling within that portion of Section 20.6 found to be illegal or unenforceable and such claim shall be exclusively decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and you and Company agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Right to Waive.
Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Section 20 may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Section 20.
Survival of Agreement.
This Section 20 will survive the termination of your relationship with Company.
Small Claims Court.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Company may bring an individual action in small claims court.
Emergency Equitable Relief.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Section 20.
Courts.
In any circumstances where the foregoing Section 20 permits the parties to litigate in court, or in the event the foregoing Section 20 is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable so as not to require the parties to engage in arbitration, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means “including without limitation”. Except as provided in Section 20.10, If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
