1. Agreement to These Terms

By accessing, browsing, or using the CarbonClarity website, calculators, dashboards, or any related services (collectively, the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and all policies referenced here, including our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms for that organization.

2. Eligibility and User Responsibilities

You agree to use CarbonClarity only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of any other person or restrict or inhibit anyone else’s use and enjoyment of the Service.

3. Educational Nature of the Service

CarbonClarity provides approximate carbon footprint estimates, climate impact indicators, and educational content for general information and awareness. The calculations are based on simplified assumptions, global averages, and 2025 emission factors. They are not a precise scientific audit or professional environmental assessment.

4. Accounts and Access

In the current version, CarbonClarity is accessible without creating a user account. We do not store your personal calculation data on our servers; it is processed locally in your browser for privacy.

If account features are introduced in the future, you agree to provide accurate information and to keep any credentials confidential. You are solely responsible for any actions or activities carried out through your account or access.
