What is a private member association?
A private member association is a group of people who agree in writing to associate on shared terms. The Vapor Vault Association is one. We sell to members only, and you join by agreeing to the terms below before your first order.
The First Amendment protects the freedom to associate, and Arizona's constitution protects private affairs. Those rights matter to us, and they're part of why we organized this way. They don't exempt the sale of nicotine products from the law. Age, product, tax and shipping laws still apply to us and our members.
The Vapor Vault Association: Private Member Association Agreement
Version 2, November 9, 2026
1. Joining. I apply to join The Vapor Vault Association, a private member association ("the Association"). My membership begins when I click to agree and the Association accepts my application. The Association may decline an application or ask for more verification.
2. Age. I am at least 21 years old. I will not buy for, or give products to, anyone under 21. I will complete age verification and show valid photo ID at delivery.
3. Declaration of purpose. The Association is a community of adults who choose to deal with one another as members. We are guided by the principles of God's Word, The Holy Bible, and by the common law of England, the Magna Carta (1215), the Articles of Confederation, the Northwest Ordinance, the Constitution for the united States including the first ten amendments, and the Declaration of Independence (1776). This declaration states what we believe. It does not change which laws apply to the Association or its members.
4. My rights. I keep all of my rights under the United States and Arizona constitutions, including freedom of association. Members may freely share, discuss and exchange information with one another.
5. The law still applies. Membership does not exempt me or the Association from any law, including laws on age, nicotine products, taxes and shipping. Nothing in this agreement takes away a right or protection that the law doesn't allow me to give up.
6. My information. The Association's Privacy Policy explains what it collects and who receives it. The Association does not sell members' personal information. It shares that information only with services that run the shop and complete orders, such as hosting, age verification, payment, delivery and chat, and with government agencies when the law requires it.
7. Other members' information. I will keep other members' personal information private.
8. Reviews, referrals and complaints. Nothing in this agreement limits my right to give an honest review of the Association's products, service or conduct, to refer friends, or to speak with an attorney or a government agency.
9. The Association's content. The Association's written content, images and videos belong to the Association. I will not reproduce them for commercial use without a founder's written permission. I may share links to them, and I keep the rights to my own reviews and photos.
10. My responsibility. I am responsible for my own decisions about using nicotine products. I understand that these products contain nicotine, an addictive chemical. Nothing the Association provides is medical advice.
11. Disputes. If I have a complaint, I will first bring it to the founders at thevaporvaultassociation@gmail.com so we can try to resolve it. If that doesn't resolve it, the Dispute Resolution section of Terms + Use applies.
12. Ending membership. I may leave at any time by emailing the Association. The Association may end my membership if I break this agreement or act against the Association's values. The Association will keep the records the law requires after my membership ends.
13. Changes. If this agreement changes, the Association will post the new version with its date, and I will be asked to agree to it before my next order.
I have read and understood this agreement.
