Age Verification Policy

Last Updated: April 2, 2025

Golden Rookie Dispensary is committed to responsible cannabis retailing and strict compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. This Age Verification Policy outlines our procedures for ensuring that our products and services are only accessible to individuals who are 21 years of age or older.

Website Access

Our website employs an age verification gate that requires all visitors to confirm they are 21 years of age or older before accessing our content. By clicking “Yes” on our age verification prompt, you represent and warrant that you are at least 21 years of age.

If you are under 21 years of age, you must exit our website immediately. Providing false information about your age is a violation of our Terms of Service and may violate applicable laws.

In-Store Verification

When visiting our retail location, all customers must present a valid, government-issued photo identification that includes date of birth. Acceptable forms of identification include:

  • Valid driver’s license
  • State-issued identification card
  • Military ID
  • Passport

We verify the authenticity of all identification documents and will refuse service to anyone who:

  • Is under 21 years of age
  • Cannot provide valid identification
  • Presents identification that appears to be fraudulent or altered
  • Attempts to use someone else’s identification

Our staff is trained to verify identification and may ask additional questions to confirm identity if necessary.

Online Ordering

If we offer online ordering or reservation services, customers must still present valid identification upon pickup at our retail location. Pre-ordering does not exempt customers from our in-person age verification requirements.

Third-Party Delivery

If we partner with third-party delivery services, those services are required to verify that recipients are 21 years of age or older at the time of delivery by checking valid identification.

Consequences of Violation

Any attempt to circumvent our age verification procedures is strictly prohibited and may result in:

  • Immediate removal from our premises
  • Permanent ban from our retail location
  • Blocking of access to our website
  • Reporting to appropriate law enforcement authorities

Privacy Considerations

We respect your privacy while fulfilling our legal obligations to verify age. Information collected during the age verification process is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We do not retain copies of your identification documents but may record that your age has been verified for future visits.

Compliance with Changing Regulations

Cannabis regulations, including age verification requirements, may change over time. We are committed to staying current with all applicable laws and regulations and will update our policies and procedures as necessary.
