1. Acceptance
These terms govern your use of cffla.org and its services, operated by the Colorado Federal Firearms Licensees Association (“CFFLA”). By using the site you accept them. You must be at least 18 to use this service. If you are an industry member, Part II below also applies to you.
Part I — Everyone
2. What this service is — and is not
Our tools help you find what the law says: Colorado and federal firearms statutes, bills, regulations, and agency guidance, with citations to the real sources.
This is not legal advice. Nothing on this site — including answers from GunLawBot or the member compliance tools — is legal advice, and using the site creates no attorney-client relationship. The tools show you what the law says and where it says it; they do not and cannot tell you whether something is legal in your situation. Laws change, and some provisions shown here are under active court challenge. Verify against the primary sources we cite, and consult a licensed attorney for advice about your circumstances.
3. Accuracy
We work hard to cite real, current law, and our AI tools are built to quote sources rather than guess. AI systems still make mistakes. Content is provided as a research aid, accuracy is not guaranteed, and the primary source always controls over anything shown here.
4. Accounts
Some features require an account (member accounts via the Trade Portal; GunLawBot accounts by email). You are responsible for your credentials and for activity under your account. We may suspend accounts that violate these terms or threaten the service.
5. AI usage and limits
GunLawBot and the member compliance tools are metered — free trial questions, subscriptions, and usage allotments as described where you use them. Limits and pricing may change; active paid periods are honored.
6. Payments and donations
- All payments are processed by Stripe. We never store card numbers.
- Donations are voluntary contributions to CFFLA and are generally non-refundable. Choosing the litigation-fund designation directs your gift to CFFLA’s litigation work — it is a fund designation supporting the association’s court challenges, not a payment into a per-case trust account. CFFLA is a 501(c)(6) trade association; donations are generally not tax-deductible as charitable contributions.
- Subscriptions (GunLawBot supporter plans, member dues) renew automatically until cancelled; cancellation stops future renewals and access runs through the period already paid.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the service for any unlawful purpose;
- scrape, bulk-download, or make automated mass requests against the site or its APIs;
- probe, disrupt, or circumvent security, rate limits, or access controls;
- misrepresent the tools’ output as legal advice from CFFLA.
8. Content ownership
The site’s design, software, and original content belong to CFFLA and its technology partners. The law itself belongs to everyone — statutes, bills, and public records shown here are public documents. Data you submit remains yours (see Part II §12 for member data).
Part II — Industry Members
9. Membership
Trade Portal membership is for federal firearms licensees and firearms-industry businesses, subject to CFFLA’s membership rules. Membership classes and dues are as presented at signup. CFFLA membership is an association relationship governed by CFFLA’s organizational documents in addition to these terms.
10. Dues and billing
Dues are billed through Stripe at the price and cadence you select. You can cancel anytime; cancellation stops future renewals and your member access runs through the period already paid.
11. The compliance suite is a reference, not a compliance guarantee
The member tools — compliance chat, the form generator, bulletins, and regulatory tracking — exist to make the law easier to find, read, and act on. You remain solely responsible for your own compliance with ATF regulations, Colorado law, and all other legal obligations of your license and business. Verify generated forms and cited requirements against the official sources before relying on them.
12. Your data is yours
Your profile, your form data, and your compliance conversations are your business information. We store and process them to provide the service, under the access rule in our Privacy & Data Policy: never sold, never released individually, aggregate publication only at Board discretion with re-identification protections. Member data is not used for public or civic-facing datasets.
Part III — The standard legal terms
13. Disclaimers
The service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that content is complete or current.
14. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, CFFLA and its technology partners are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, or business, arising from your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose.
15. Changes
We may update these terms; the current version is always posted here with its effective date. Material changes affecting members will be announced through the portal. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
16. Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. Questions: info@cffla.org · CFFLA, 12470 York St #41, Eastlake, CO 80614.
