These terms govern your use of the Hemp Museum website and its services.
The Hemp Museum is an independent, education-focused resource about hemp and cannabis — their history, science, industry, and culture. By using this site, you agree to these terms.
Nothing on this site — including our Research & Data pages, CBD and medical content, or any other section — is medical advice. It is educational information, sourced and cited where possible, but it is not a substitute for consulting a licensed doctor, pharmacist, or other qualified professional about your own health.
Similarly, nothing here is legal or financial advice about cannabis law, investing, or business formation. Laws around hemp and cannabis vary enormously by country and change frequently — verify current law in your own jurisdiction before acting on anything you read here.
This site discusses cannabis, including non-industrial and recreational cultivars, in an educational context. It is intended for adults. If cannabis of any kind is illegal where you live, please follow your local law — this site does not sell, ship, or facilitate access to any controlled substance.
Some content (parts of our Industry Directory and Researchers to Follow pages) is reserved for paying members. As of this writing, our payment processor (AllPay) is being connected, and our membership system is a demonstration built on your browser's local storage — it is not a secure, server-verified account system, and membership status can currently be reset by clearing your browser data. We'll update these terms once real accounts and billing are live, including refund and cancellation terms.
Donations made through this site support our research and conservation work and are not tax-deductible unless separately stated at the time of donation.
Companies can sponsor specific, clearly labeled areas of this site (seePartner With Us). Sponsorship never buys influence over our research, historical, or educational content — the same editorial standards described on ourStandards pageapply regardless of who supports us.
Original text, design, and curation on this site are ours. Where we use third-party material (photographs, illustrations, embedded video), we credit the source and follow its license — see individual image captions and citations throughout the site. If you believe something is used incorrectly, contact us and we'll address it.
Our Industry Directory lists companies and organizations for informational purposes. Listing does not imply endorsement, partnership, or a business relationship unless explicitly stated. We link to external sites throughout this site; we don't control and aren't responsible for their content.
This site is provided "as is." We work hard to keep facts accurate and sourced, but we don't guarantee the site will be error-free, uninterrupted, or perfectly current — research and policy on this topic move quickly.
We may update these terms as the site's functionality changes. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.
