We reserve the right to modify our digital delivery methods when necessary.
3. Product Licensing & Permitted Use
All digital products sold by CBA are licensed for internal business use, not sold with unrestricted ownership rights.
Upon purchase, you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to download, customize, and use the purchased materials within the purchasing business's own operations.
Each purchase grants a license for use by one business entity. Separate purchases are required for use by additional businesses or legal entities, including affiliated companies operating under separate legal structures. A purchasing business may use the materials across its own facilities and locations, provided those operations are conducted under the same legal entity.
Permitted Uses
You may:
-
Edit and customize purchased templates to reflect your business's specific operations and regulatory requirements.
-
Use the documents internally for business planning, employee training, operational procedures, and regulatory preparation.
-
Share the documents with employees, legal counsel, compliance professionals, or contractors working on behalf of your business, provided they use the materials solely for your business's purposes.
Prohibited Uses
You may not:
-
Resell, redistribute, sublicense, or commercially reproduce the original templates or substantially similar versions.
-
Share purchased templates with unrelated businesses, separate legal entities, or third parties for their independent use.
-
Purchase templates on behalf of multiple independent businesses without obtaining the appropriate licenses.
-
Publish the templates online or make them available for public download.
-
Represent CBA's original materials as products developed by you for resale.
All rights not expressly granted remain with CBA.
4. Intellectual Property
All Website content, SOP templates, documents, graphics, designs, branding, and other proprietary materials are owned by or licensed to CBA and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
Purchasing a product does not transfer copyright or ownership of its underlying content.
Customers may customize purchased templates for their permitted business use, but CBA retains ownership of the original materials and proprietary content.
Unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or commercial exploitation is prohibited.
5. Regulatory Compliance Disclaimer
CBA develops its SOP templates and compliance-related resources to assist cannabis businesses in preparing documentation and establishing operational procedures.
However, cannabis regulations and regulatory interpretations vary by jurisdiction and are subject to change.
Purchasing or using CBA's products does not guarantee compliance with any federal, state, or local law or regulation.

-
Regulatory requirements may differ depending on the customer's license type, location, and operations.
-
Additional documentation, procedures, licenses, registrations, or approvals may be necessary.
-
Customers are responsible for independently verifying applicable requirements and maintaining compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
CBA does not guarantee that any product will satisfy every requirement imposed by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) or any other regulatory authority.

Decline or cancel orders when necessary due to suspected fraud, payment issues, or other legitimate business reasons.

9. Refunds & Returns
Because our products are digital and generally available for immediate download, all digital product sales are considered final once access to the purchased materials has been provided, except as required by applicable law.
We do not generally offer refunds based on a change of mind, a customer's decision not to use the materials, or a failure to review the product description before purchase.
