TERMS OF SERVICE
Last Updated: March 2025
Welcome to Blum & Co. By downloading, accessing, or using the Blum & Co. mobile application (the "App"),
you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not
use the App. These Terms apply to all users, members, and visitors of the App in any form.
Blum & Co., LLC reserves the right to update, modify, or replace these Terms at any time without prior
notice. Continued use of the App following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.
1. Eligibility and Membership
The Blum & Co. App is intended for adult men aged 18 and older. By creating an account, you represent
and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age; that you have the legal authority to enter into these Terms;
and that you are not prohibited from using the App under the laws and regulations of the United States or
of any other applicable jurisdiction.
Membership is not automatic. All applicants are subject to a vetting and approval process. Blum & Co.
reserves the right to approve, deny, suspend, or revoke any membership at its sole discretion, at any time,
for any reason, with or without notice.
You agree to provide accurate, truthful, and complete information during the application and onboarding
process. As part of onboarding, you will be required to complete a one-time identity verification using a
valid, government-issued photo ID. This verification is required to maintain the integrity and safety of the
community of Blum & Co. Members (the “Community”). Providing false, altered, or fraudulent identification
is grounds for immediate and permanent removal from the platform.
The App also offers biometric authentication, such as Face ID or fingerprint recognition, as a security
feature for accessing your account. Use of biometric features is governed by your device's operating system
and Apple's privacy policies.
2. Code of Conduct
Membership in Blum & Co. is a privilege, not a right. Members are expected to conduct themselves with
integrity, respect, and maturity at all times — both within the App and at any Events associated with the
Community.
The following behaviors are strictly prohibited and may result in immediate suspension or permanent
termination of your membership without refund:
• Harassment, bullying, hate speech, or any form of targeted aggression toward another member
• Unsolicited commercial solicitation, spam, or aggressive business pitching
• Impersonating another member, public figure, or any other individual
• Sharing, distributing, or reproducing any private content, conversations, or member information
outside of the App
Blum & Co., LLC | theblumandco.com | Page 1• Attempting to circumvent, hack, or manipulate any feature, security measure, or functionality of
the App
• Planning or engaging in any illegal, fraudulent, or manipulative activity, or for the commission or
facilitation of any illegal activity
• Any conduct that Blum & Co. determines, at its sole discretion, to be harmful to the Community or
inconsistent with its values
Blum & Co. is not obligated to monitor all content or conduct on the platform but reserves the right to
investigate and take action on any reported or observed violation of these Terms.
3. Membership Fees and Billing
Access to the Blum & Co. App requires a paid membership subscription. Current pricing is displayed within
the App and on our website at theblumandco.com. Blum & Co. reserves the right to change pricing at any
time. Price changes will not affect existing subscribers until their current billing cycle ends, at which point
the new pricing will apply unless the member cancels.
Founding member pricing, where applicable, is locked in permanently for the duration of continuous active
membership. If a founding member cancels their subscription and later resubscribes, standard pricing at
the time of resubscription will apply.
All membership fees are processed through the Apple App Store. Billing, refunds, and subscription
management are governed by Apple's terms and policies. Blum & Co. does not process payments directly
and does not issue refunds outside of Apple's standard refund policy.
Memberships automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled prior to the renewal
date. It is your responsibility to manage your subscription through your Apple ID account settings.
4. Content Ownership and License
You retain ownership of any original content you post, share, or upload within the App. By posting content,
you grant Blum & Co., LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to host, display, and distribute
that content to other members within the App solely for the purpose of operating the platform.
You represent and warrant that any content you post does not infringe upon the intellectual property rights,
privacy rights, or any other rights of any third party. You are solely responsible for the content you post.
Blum & Co. reserves the right to remove any content that violates these Terms or that it determines, at its
sole discretion, to be harmful, inappropriate, or inconsistent with the values of the Community.
5. Privacy and Confidentiality
The Blum & Co. App is intended to service a private, vetted Community. Members are expected to treat all
information shared within the App — including posts, direct messages, and personal disclosures by other
members — with discretion and confidentiality.
Sharing, screenshotting, recording, or reproducing any content or communication from within the App
outside of the platform is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms.

any injury, loss, damage, or harm that occurs in connection with your attendance at, travel to and from, or
participation in any eEvent.
All Events are subject to their own rules and expectations consistent with the Code of Conduct outlined in
these Terms. Conduct violations at Events may result in removal from the Event , restriction of access to
the App, and termination of Blum & Co. membership.

any reason, at its sole discretion, with or without notice. Reasons for termination include but are not limited
to violations of these Terms, conduct unbecoming of a member, or actions deemed harmful to the
Community or the company.
Upon termination, your right to access the App ceases immediately. No refund of any prepaid or unused
subscription fees will be issued in the event of termination for cause. You may request a refund through
Apple for terminations not related to conduct violations, subject to Apple's refund policy.
You may cancel your membership at any time through your Apple ID account settings. Cancellation takes
