Existing law, the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA) , approved by the voters at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, regulates the cultivation, distribution, transport, storage, manufacturing, testing, processing, sale, and use of marijuana for nonmedical purposes by people 21 years of age and older. The AUMA prohibits any advertising or marketing placed in broadcast, cable, radio, print, and digital communications from being displayed unless at least 71.6% of the audience is reasonably expected to be 21 years of age or older. This bill would prohibit an operator, as defined, of an Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application from marketing or advertising any marijuana, marijuana product, or marijuana business to a person who is under 21 years of age if the operator has actual knowledge that a person under 21 years of age is using its Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application, and if the marketing or advertising is specifically directed to that person based upon information specific to that person, including, but not limited to, the person's profile, activity, address, or location. The bill would prohibit an operator of an Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application from knowingly using, disclosing, compiling, or allowing a third party to use, disclose, or compile, the personal information of a person under 21 years of age with the actual knowledge that the use, disclosure, or compilation is for the purpose of marketing or advertising marijuana, marijuana products, or marijuana businesses to that person under 21 years of age. Existing law prohibits an operator of an Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application directed to minors from marketing or advertising certain products or services, including any instrument or paraphernalia that is designed for the smoking or ingestion of tobacco or any controlled substance. This bill would additionally prohibit an operator of an Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application directed to minors, from marketing or advertising any marijuana, marijuana product, marijuana business, or marijuana-related instrument or paraphernalia on its Internet Web site, online service, online application, or mobile application. AUMA authorizes the Legislature to amend the act to further the purposes and intent of the act with a 23 vote of the membership of both houses of the Legislature, except as provided. This bill would declare that its provisions further specified purposes and intent of AUMA.
