Terms of Use

PURP Technologies Inc. · Last updated

1. About these terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) apply to your use of the purpco.com website, including its buying guides, contact form and live demos (together, the “Website”). The Website is operated by PURP Technologies Inc. (“PURP”, “we”, “us”) of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

By using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Website on behalf of a business, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms for it, and “you” includes that business. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

2. What the Website is for

PURP is business-to-business retail software for licensed cannabis retailers. The Website lets you learn about PURP and try it before you buy. It sells nothing, takes no payments and does not sell or deliver cannabis. The Website is intended for adults using it for business purposes.

3. The demo is fictional

Each demo visit gives your browser a disposable “practice business” filled with sample products and fictional customers, sales, orders and deliveries. Please keep in mind:

  • No real sale, payment, refund, delivery, email or Apple or Google wallet pass takes place in the demo. Payments are simulated.
  • Names, figures, reports, forecasts and results in the demo are illustrative only. They are not a promise of the results your business will see.
  • Your practice business and everything in it, including any branding you add, is deleted when your visit ends. A visit ends when you leave, after ten minutes without activity, when you start again, or at most eight hours after it began. Do not rely on the demo to keep anything.
  • Do not enter real customer information or any other real personal information into the demo.
  • Answers from Ask P, the demo’s AI assistant, are generated automatically. They may be incomplete or wrong and are not advice.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to, and not to help anyone else to:

  • scrape, crawl or copy the Website or demo content by automated means, or send automated traffic or load to it, except for search engines indexing public pages in line with our robots.txt;
  • probe, scan or test the security of the Website or the systems behind it, or try to access any account, data or system you are not authorized to access;
  • get around usage limits, capacity limits, visit time limits or other technical restrictions;
  • reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any part of the Website or the PURP software, except where the law expressly allows it despite this restriction;
  • upload or submit anything that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, obscene or offensive, or that contains malware or other harmful code;
  • impersonate any person or business, or misrepresent your connection with them;
  • interfere with other visitors’ use of the Website or with its normal operation; or
  • use the Website in breach of any applicable law.

We may suspend or end your access to the Website, including ending a demo visit, if we reasonably believe you have broken these Terms.

5. Content you submit

You keep ownership of anything you submit, such as a store name, colours or a logo you upload to the demo, or a message you send through the contact form (“Your Content”).

You give us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, reproduce and display Your Content only as needed to run your demo visit and show your branding, to answer your message, and to operate and protect the Website. Demo branding and logos are deleted when your visit ends. Our handling of contact messages is described in our Privacy Policy.

You confirm that you own Your Content or have permission to use it this way, and that it does not break these Terms or anyone else’s rights. During your visit, anyone who has the exact web address of an uploaded logo image can open it, so please upload only images you are comfortable showing publicly.

6. Feedback

If you send us ideas, suggestions or other feedback about PURP, you agree that we may use it freely, without any obligation to you. You are not required to send feedback.

7. Our intellectual property

The Website, the PURP software shown in it, and all text, designs, graphics, recordings and other content we provide are owned by PURP or our licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable permission to view and use the Website for evaluating PURP, and to share links to it. No other rights are granted.

PURP, the PURP logo and our product names are trademarks of PURP Technologies Inc. You may not use them in a way that suggests we endorse or are connected with you or your products without our written permission. Other names and marks shown on the Website belong to their owners.

8. Third-party services and links

The Website uses third-party services, such as Mapbox maps and the AI provider behind the demo’s assistant, Ask P, and may link to other websites. We are not responsible for third-party websites or services, their content or their privacy practices, and a link does not mean we endorse them. Your use of them is subject to their own terms.

9. Availability and changes to the Website

We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Website or the demos at any time. The demo runs on limited capacity: it may be busy, full or unavailable, and a visit may end or reset without notice. We do not promise that the Website will be available, uninterrupted or error-free, and the demo may not reflect the latest version or every feature of PURP.

10. No professional, legal or regulatory advice

Our buying guides and other Website content are general information to help you evaluate retail software. They are not legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other professional advice. Cannabis retail rules differ by country, state, province and business model and change over time. You are responsible for your business’s compliance and should get advice from qualified professionals and the relevant regulator before making decisions.

11. Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the Website and the demos are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties or conditions of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranties or conditions of merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title or non-infringement. We do not guarantee that Website content is accurate, complete or current.

12. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law:

  • PURP will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data or business opportunity, arising from or related to your use of the Website, even if we were told such damages were possible; and
  • PURP’s total liability for all claims arising from or related to the Website or these Terms will not exceed CAD $100.

These limits do not apply where the law does not allow them, including liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law.

13. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify PURP and its directors, officers, employees and agents against any claims, losses, damages and reasonable costs, including legal fees, arising from your misuse of the Website, Your Content, or your breach of these Terms or of the law.

14. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information on the Website.

15. PURP subscriptions

These Terms cover the Website only. Subscriptions to PURP and use of the production PURP platform and apps are governed by a separate customer agreement between PURP and the retailer. If that agreement conflicts with these Terms, the customer agreement prevails.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. You and PURP agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Alberta for any dispute arising from these Terms or the Website, except where the law gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere.

17. General

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a term is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms; we may transfer ours as part of a reorganization, merger or sale of our business. These Terms are the whole agreement between you and PURP about the Website.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on this page and change the “Last updated” date. Changes apply from the time they are posted. Your continued use of the Website after that means you accept the updated Terms.
