PRIVACY POLICY
- User Agreement. This Site is owned and operated by Jupiter Research, LLC on its own behalf or in combination with one or more of its affiliates (collectively referred to herein, solely for ease of reference, as “JUPITER”, “us” or “we”). This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) applies to your use of the JUPITER website located at www.JupiterResearch.com and any other online and mobile websites, blogs and interactive applications operated by JUPITER (unless a different policy is provided on a particular site, application or service, in which case such different policy shall govern and control). This Privacy Policy discloses what type of information is collected, the methods used to collect it, how JUPITER utilizes the information to better serve all interested parties and the choices you have about the way your information is collected and used. For some states, special rules may apply. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Your use of the Site indicates that you have read, accepted and unconditionally agreed to the JUPITER privacy practices, as outlined in this Privacy Policy and any other applicable terms. The Terms of Use for this Site, located at https://www.jupiterresearch.com/about/legal/, are incorporated herein by this reference. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, personally identifiable information (“PII”) is personal information about an individual, such as a first and last name, phone number, email address or other individually identifiable information within the meaning of the Federal Trade Commission’s Online Privacy Protection Rule found at 16 CFR 312.2. Every user hereby agrees that all information you provide, including but not limited to age, shall be truthful and correct.
- Information We Collect. JUPITER strives to provide our visitors with information relevant to their particular desires, needs and/or interests. The information we gather helps us to better serve our purpose. We may ask you to provide us with demographic information, information regarding your interests or other PII. Providing us with PII about yourself is voluntary, and you can always choose not to provide certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of or participate in some of the Site’s features. JUPITER actively and passively gathers, analyzes and/or stores PII and other information generally by way of a few different sources: (1) the PII voluntarily submitted by visitors when using or registering to use or receive our products, services or offers, or when submitted to us via our contact form; and (2) by tracking and analyzing online and mobile data and activity through mechanisms that identify site usage, user location, device type, browser types, IP addresses, and other data. We do not collect PII through advertisements on our Site, and the PII we collect is not shared with third parties except as set forth herein. We will make reasonable efforts to destroy, erase or make anonymous any PII that is no longer required to fulfill the original purpose for which it was originally collected.
- Usage Information. When your computer or mobile device contacts our web servers (for example, when you visit this Site, or view an HTML email), our web servers automatically collect usage information. Such usage information includes information about how our visitors use and navigate our Site. It can include the number and frequency of visitors to each web page and the length of their stays, browser type, location, device type, referrer data that identifies the web page visited prior and subsequent to visiting our Site, and IP addresses (see below for more information on IP addresses). We also may determine the applicable technology available in order to serve you the most appropriate version of a web page, email, advertising or promotional announcement or similar service. This information is used to analyze and improve this Site and to provide you with a more fulfilling and relevant experience.
- Browser Cookies. Like many websites, we may use browser “cookies.” Cookies are a website’s way of remembering who you are. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer’s hard drive or stored temporarily in your computer’s memory. There are two kinds of cookies: those that are “session” oriented and those that are “persistent.” Session cookies are deleted from your computer when you close your browser. Persistent cookies retain information for later use tomorrow, next week, next month, or whenever they are set to expire. We use cookies to help us to identify account holders and to optimize their experience on our Site. Also, we will use cookies to monitor and maintain information about your use of this Site. Most web browsers accept cookies automatically. You can delete cookies manually or set your browser to automatically delete cookies on a predetermined schedule. For example, in the Internet Explorer menu bar, select: Tools > Internet Options > Browsing History > Delete to view manual and automatic options. If you decline to accept cookies, you may not be able to take advantage of or participate in certain features of this Site.
- Use of IP Addresses. An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer, device or network when you are linked to the Internet. When you request pages from this Site, our servers log your IP address. We may use IP address for a number of purposes, such as system administration, to report aggregate information to our business partners or to audit the use of the Site. We may associate your IP address with the PII you provide.
We also may collect and store information about you that we receive from other sources to enable us to update and correct the information contained in our database and to provide product recommendations and special offers that we think will interest you.
- Sensitive Information. JUPITER uses modern technological efforts to ensure the safety of your sensitive information. No website, Internet transmission, computer system or wireless connection is completely secure. JUPITER cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. Your use of the Site is at your own risk. Whenever you give JUPITER sensitive or confidential information, JUPITER will take commercially reasonable steps to protect the information by establishing a secure connection with your web browser. JUPITER uses an industry standard security protocol for encrypting sensitive information. Unfortunately, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and data transmission over the Internet cannot be guaranteed 100% secure. We cannot and do not ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to JUPITER, and you do so at your own risk.
- JUPITER may contain links to, or advertisements about, non-JUPITER websites. Other sites may also reference, advertise, or link to JUPITER Sites. JUPITER does not endorse or sponsor other websites, is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of non-JUPITER sites, expressly disclaims any statements or assertions made on such websites, and denies all liability associated with your use of, and the content on, such other websites and advertisements. Please be advised that the practices described in this Privacy Policy do not apply to information gathered through other websites. We encourage you to be aware of when you leave this Site and to read the privacy policies of each and every website that you visit.
- Consent to Processing. By using our Site, participating in any of our services, purchasing our products, and/or providing us with your information, you consent and agree to the collection, transfer, storage and processing of your information to and in the United States. You understand that the technical processing and transmission of this Site may involve (a) transmissions over various networks; and (b) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.
- Children. We recognize the importance of safeguarding the privacy of children and encourage parents to check and monitor their children’s use of online activities regularly. The Site supports and complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and other applicable laws. The Site is not aimed at nor intended for children under the age of 18. If you are under the age of 18, please do not use the Site. If JUPITER discovers that a person under the age of 18 has provided JUPITER with any PII, JUPITER will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete such person’s PII from its system.
- Sharing Information. JUPITER does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. If you opt in to receive communications from a third party, such as a dispensary, your information will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy and not this Privacy Policy. Therefore, if you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly. In addition, JUPITER may share your PII with third parties under the following circumstances:
Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf: We may engage third parties to perform services in connection with the operation of our business. Examples of these services include: (a) content providers; (b) product customization, (c) marketing and promotional material distribution, (d) website evaluation, (e) data collection, storage, management, analysis and, where applicable, cleansing, and (f) any other services designed to assist us in maximizing our business potential. These third parties may have access to this Site’s user information, including PII, to the extent it is needed to perform their duties and functions.
JUPITER Security: We may release information about our users, including PII, when legally required to do so, at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation or to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our Site and applicable laws. We may also disclose such user information whenever we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of JUPITER, or any of our respective affiliates, business partners, customers or others.
Aggregate Information: We may disclose non-identifying, aggregated user statistics to third parties for a variety of purposes, including describing our services to prospective partners and other third parties. An example of such non-personal information includes the number of users who visited this Site during a specific time period.
- Corporate Change. In addition, we reserve the right to disclose, share and/or otherwise transfer user information, including without limitation PII, in connection with a corporate merger, acquisition, consolidation, the sale of a portion of our business or the sale of substantially all of JUPITER’s assets, or other fundamental corporate change, whatever form it may take. You will be notified via email or prominent notice on our Site prior to a change of ownership or control of your personal information, if your personal information will be used contrary to this policy. For clarification and the removal of doubt, JUPITER specifically reserves the right to transfer or share a copy of PII collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy from this Site, off-line or otherwise, to the buyer of that portion of its business relating to that information.
- Third-Party Advertisements. We may from time to time use various outside ad-serving or other companies to serve advertisements and/or collect certain anonymous information when you visit our Site. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) during your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of interest to you. These companies typically use a cookie or third-party web beacon to collect this information. Our Site does not recognize browser “Do Not Track” signals, but several of our service providers who utilize these cookies or beacons on our web sites enable you to opt out of this behavioral advertising. This web usage information may be combined with other ad delivery information the ad-server has collected from your visits to our Site and other websites not affiliated with JUPITER.

GENERAL
- Severability.

- Governing Law.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
- JUPITER is committed to working with you in the event of a dispute. If you have a problem or dispute, you must first notify JUPITER and give JUPITER an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute amicably. This includes you first sending a written description of your problem or dispute using the following:
Email Address:
info@jupiterresearch.com or
Mailing Address:
Jupiter Research, LLC
C/O Customer Care
2801 East Camelback Road, Suite 180
Phoenix, Arizona 85016
USA
You agree to negotiate with JUPITER in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after JUPITER’s receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.
ARBITRATION: You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of these Terms of Use, shall be final and binding arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate JUPITER’s or any third party’s intellectual property rights, in which case you acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by JUPITER and/or the applicable third party(ies). You and we acknowledge that the Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under the Agreement (despite any other choice of law provision).
Arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in the State of Arizona. For claims of less than $75,000 USD, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for claims over $75,000 USD, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879 (within the USA). Upon your filing of the arbitration demand, we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for claims that total less than $75,000 USD. For claims that total more than $75,000 USD, the payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. You and we agree to pay our own other fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys’ fees. In addition, for claims under $75,000 USD as to which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith with JUPITER as required above before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, JUPITER agrees not to seek an award of attorneys’ fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise available under applicable law. As a limited exception to the agreement to arbitrate, you and we agree that you may take claims to small claims court, if your claims qualify for hearing by such court.
YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION, THEN NO LATER THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU CONTACTED JUPITER VIA ITS SITE CONTACT PAGE OR VIA EMAIL FOR THE FIRST TIME, AS RECORDED BY JUPITER’S SYSTEMS THAT TRACK CONTACTS, YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THIS PART OF THE AGREEMENT BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO info@jupiterresearch.com. Please provide your full name, address (including street address, city, state, and zip code), and email address to which the opt-out applies. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of this agreement to arbitrate. Any opt-out received after the thirty (30) day time period will not be valid, and you must pursue your claim via arbitration pursuant to these Terms of Use. If you opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, all other parts of these Terms of Use will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this agreement to arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with JUPITER.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, NO ARBITRATION OR OTHER CLAIM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER USER OF THE SITE, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In the event that this CLASS ACTION WAIVER is deemed unenforceable, then any putative class action may only proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND JUPITER BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.
If this arbitration provision is found unenforceable or to not apply for a given dispute, then the proceeding must be brought exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction in Arizona. You hereby accept the exclusive jurisdiction of such court for this purpose.
In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Site or Terms of Use, be instituted more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.

Limited Warranties
Last Revised December 29, 2021. This Limited Warranties section applies both to licensed businesses purchasing wholesale products and to retail purchasers/consumers who purchase through the retailers.
Device Warranty:
Jupiter Research, LLC (“Jupiter” or “Jupiter Research”) liquid cartridges, pod cartridges, power supplies, all-in-one vaporizers and any other hardware (altogether “Devices” and each a “Device”) are guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship during normal and customary use for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of manufacture (which can be identified by the lot code) or six (6) months from the date of purchase from an authorized Jupiter Research retailer or reseller (if an end consumer). This warranty regarding Jupiter Research Devices does NOT cover normal wear and tear. This warranty excludes damage resulting from abuse, accident, modifications, or otherwise damaged through the act or neglect of the consumer or a third party. Jupiter Research makes no warranties as to other parts with which such Devices may be combined, including, but not limited to, any bonding or connection between the Device and any other parts with which it is joined by a party other than Jupiter Research. Jupiter Research will replace any defective Devices with like-kind product. Reimbursement for the replacement of the contents (e.g., oil) of any cartridges used with the Device are excluded by this warranty.
Jupiter Research Cartridge Limited Warranty and Compatibility with Extracts Cartridge Warranty:
Jupiter liquid and pod cartridges (altogether “Cartridges”) are guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship during normal and customary use for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of manufacture (which can be identified by the lot code) or six (6) months from the date of purchase from an authorized Jupiter Research retailer or reseller (if an end consumer). This warranty regarding Jupiter Cartridges does NOT cover normal wear and tear. This warranty excludes incompatibility of materials with the fluid being loaded into the Cartridges. This warranty excludes damage resulting from abuse, accident, modifications, or otherwise damaged through the act or neglect of the consumer or a third party. Jupiter Research makes no warranties as to other parts with which such Cartridge may be combined, including, but not limited to, any bonding or connection between the Cartridge and any other parts with which it is joined by a party other than Jupiter Research. Jupiter Research will replace any defective Cartridges with like-kind product. Reimbursement for the replacement of the contents (e.g., oil) of the Cartridges are excluded by this warranty.
Chemical Compatibility:
*applicable to licensed businesses
Many of our plastic reservoir products use Engineering Thermoplastic (ETP) for the housing. We chose ETP for its clarity, strength, and chemical compatibility. Although ETP is known for its chemical resistance, you should be aware it is not fully compatible with many terpenes frequently found in extracts. Due to the known variation in extracts, Jupiter cannot be responsible for chemical compatibility with any extract.
You have invested time and money in formulating your extract to meet your customers’ expectations. Jupiter Research has similarly invested in designing and testing the Device you are going to use to present your extract to your customer. Everyone’s extracts are different: different strains, indoor v. outdoor grown, a distillate with terps added back, winterized BHO, CO2, or Ethanol extracts. These have all been used successfully in Jupiter Devices. While infrequent, extracts exist that will not function properly or have an adverse reaction in Jupiter Cartridges. These incompatibilities end up costing time and money when they are discovered on the production line.
Although incompatibility is rare, losses can mount rapidly during production. In order to eliminate potential losses due to the discovery of incompatibility during production, we strongly suggest that you test your extract in Jupiter Devices before you go to production. Incompatibility with materials in the Devices is not covered by Jupiter’s warranty. This is true if you are a new client or an existing client with a new formulation. We can supply sample quantities, and a suggested test protocol is detailed below. For extracts that are not compatible with ETP, we can supply alternative materials including glass (may require an additional charge). We are confident that we can supply a Device that will meet your needs, but we cannot guarantee it.
Suggested Minimum Test Protocol:
- Fill at least 10 Cartridges/Devices with extract using the filling procedure supplied with the Cartridge/Device samples.
- Allow the Cartridges/Devices to stand upright with the mouthpiece pointing upwards for 1 hour. Inspect for cracks and leaks. Photograph any cracks or leaks.
- Allow the Cartridges/Devices to remain standing for 5-7 days. Inspect for cracks and leaks. Photograph any cracks or leaks.
LIMITATIONS ON WARRANTIES FOR ALL JUPITER RESEARCH PRODUCTS
IF A JUPITER RESEARCH PRODUCT IS PURCHASED FROM A SELLER OTHER THAN AN AUTHORIZED JUPITER RESEARCH RETAILER OR RESELLER, THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH ABOVE DO NOT APPLY, AND IN SUCH EVENT JUPITER RESEARCH DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES FOR SUCH PRODUCT, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
With respect to all JUPITER RESEARCH products eligible for warranty pursuant to the terms stated above, any repaired or replacement product will be warranted from the date of purchase of the original product from an authorized JUPITER RESEARCH retailer or reseller or directly from JUPITER RESEARCH, not from the repair or replacement date.
ALL WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY STATE LAW, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE LIMITED WARRANTIES SET FORTH ABOVE.
There are no other warranties that extend beyond the warranties set forth above. THE FOREGOING LIMITED EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, GUARANTIES, AGREEMENTS, AND SIMILAR OBLIGATIONS OF A MANUFACTURER OR SELLER OF GOODS. JUPITER RESEARCH IS NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF JUPITER RESEARCH PRODUCTS.
No person, agent, retailer, reseller or other third party is authorized to change, modify, or extend the terms of these warranties in any manner whatsoever. These warranties give you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
WARRANTY PROCEDURES FOR ALL JUPITER RESEARCH PRODUCTS
If a JUPITER RESEARCH product is eligible for warranty pursuant to the terms and conditions stated above, JUPITER RESEARCH, in its sole discretion, will (1) repair the defect; or (2) replace the defective product with the same or a comparable product.
For Consumers/Retail Purchasers:
IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED YOUR WARRANTED JUPITER RESEARCH CARTRIDGE OR ALL-IN-ONE VAPORIZER FROM AN AUTHORIZED JUPITER RESEARCH RETAILER OR RESELLER, YOU MUST CONTACT THE ORIGINAL PLACE OF PURCHASE TO HANDLE ALL WARRANTY CLAIMS. SUBMIT YOUR ORIGINAL RECEIPT. All purchases of Cartridges made at an authorized JUPITER RESEARCH retailer or reseller are to be brought directly to that particular retailer or reseller for evaluation, not JUPITER RESEARCH.
IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED YOUR WARRANTED JUPITER RESEARCH POWER SUPPLY FROM AN AUTHORIZED JUPITER RESEARCH RETAILER OR RESELLER, YOU MUST CONTACT JUPITER RESEARCH DIRECTLY TO HANDLE ALL WARRANTY CLAIMS. SUBMIT YOUR ORIGINAL RECEIPT. All purchases of power supplies made at an authorized JUPITER RESEARCH retailer or reseller are to be brought directly to JUPITER RESEARCH for evaluation.
For Businesses/Wholesale Purchasers:
If you have purchased your warranted JUPITER RESEARCH Device directly from JUPITER RESEARCH, please contact JUPITER RESEARCH for a return materials authorization number at info@jupiterresearch.com. Once the JUPITER RESEARCH Customer Support Department determines the product is eligible under a warranty set forth above, a “Return Authorization Number” will be issued to you along with shipping instructions. The Return Authorization Number must be visible on the exterior of the package containing the returned Device in order to be physically received by the warehouse. Issuance of a Return Authorization Number does not mean that JUPITER RESEARCH will necessarily accept the warranty claim as valid; conditions which make a Device ineligible for warranty may be identified upon JUPITER RESEARCH’s receipt of the returned Device.
If you have any questions regarding the warranties described above, please contact your nearest authorized JUPITER RESEARCH retailer or reseller, or the JUPITER RESEARCH Customer Support Department at info@jupiterresearch.com.

Our new procedures detail how to verify the data subject, what steps to take for processing an access request, what exemptions apply and a suite of response templates to ensure that communications with data subjects are compliant, consistent and adequate.
- Legal Basis for Processing – we are reviewing all processing activities to identify the legal basis for processing and ensuring that each basis is appropriate for the activity it relates to. Where applicable, we also maintain records of our processing activities, ensuring that our obligations under Article 30 of the GDPR and Schedule 1 of the Data Protection Bill are met.
- Privacy Notice/Policy – we have revised our Privacy Notice(s) to comply with the GDPR, ensuring that all individuals whose personal information we process have been informed of why we need it, how it is used, what their rights are, who the information is disclosed to and what safeguarding measures are in place to protect their information.
- Obtaining Consent – we have revised our consent mechanisms for obtaining personal data, ensuring that individuals understand what they are providing, why and how we use it and giving clear, defined ways to consent to us processing their information. We have developed stringent processes for recording consent, making sure that we can evidence an affirmative opt-in, along with time and date records; and an easy to see and access way to withdraw consent at any time.
- Direct Marketing – we have revised the wording and processes for direct marketing, including clear opt-in mechanisms for marketing subscriptions; a clear notice and method for opting out and providing unsubscribe features on all subsequent marketing materials.
- Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA) – where we process personal information that is considered high risk, involves large scale processing, or includes special category/criminal conviction data; we have developed stringent procedures and assessment templates for carrying out impact assessments that comply fully with the GDPR’s Article 35 requirements. We have implemented documentation processes that record each assessment, allow us to rate the risk posed by the processing activity and implement mitigating measures to reduce the risk posed to the data subject(s).
- Processor Agreements – where we use any third-party to process personal information on our behalf (i.e., Payroll, Recruitment, Hosting etc), we have drafted compliant Processor Agreements and due diligence procedures for ensuring that they (as well as we), meet and understand their/our GDPR obligations. These measures include initial and ongoing reviews of the service provided the necessity of the processing activity, the technical and organisational measures in place and compliance with the GDPR.
