Controlled substances, drug paraphernalia, and medical drugs are prohibited

What Etsy says

Alcohol, drug, drug paraphernalia, medical drug, and tobacco are not permitted on Etsy. Drug paraphernalia includes items with a carburetor, slides and/or items with a slide, bongs and bubblers, and vaporizers and their components.

How to stay compliant

1. Delist any item that is a controlled substance, drug paraphernalia, or makes intoxicating health claims.
2. Remove any listing for vaporizers, bongs, bubblers, or pipes with carburetors regardless of stated purpose.
3. Review listings for CBD or herbal products — claims of intoxicating or medicinal effects are prohibited even if the substance is legal in your location.
