Support
I run mechoulam on my own and pay for the server, the database and the study appraisal out of my own pocket. To keep the register freely accessible and free of advertising, I am asking you for a voluntary contribution.

The first two lead to the payment provider's own page, where that provider's privacy terms apply. What reaches me is the amount and your name, nothing else.
Why I am asking
There is no editorial team and no publisher behind mechoulam. I read the studies myself, appraise them and keep the register current. I started it because the evidence on cannabis as medicine is hard to see whole. Anyone asking what is actually established for a given indication, and what is not, finds brochures, forum threads and scattered single studies. A neutral overview was missing.
Nobody else funds it.

That is not principle for its own sake. A register that rates study results loses its worth the moment someone who profits from the outcome gets a say. Those costs run every month, and they grow as the register grows.
What you get for it
Nothing, and that is deliberate. There is no bonus content, no membership, no tiers and no list of supporter names. Every page stays the same for everyone, whether you give or not. Anything else would be a paywall with a friendly face.
mechoulam does not hold charitable status under German law. Your contribution is therefore not a donation in the tax sense, and I cannot issue a donation receipt.
If you have a question about any of this, write to [email protected]. I answer it myself.
