1. General

These terms of use regarding the service ClimateHero Climate Calculator (the “Service”) apply between Climate Hero AB (“ClimateHero”) and you (“the User”).

The service is a solution that enables the User to calculate their carbon footprint and to get help to reduce it, both through lifestyle changes and through climate offsets. Climate offsets means that the user is offered the ability to eliminate their calculated carbon footprint by financing climate-positive projects in developing countries.

2. Usage of the Service

The User may only use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes. ClimateHero reserves the right, at its own discretion, to shut down users who are deemed to violate the Terms of Use or otherwise misuse the Service. ClimateHero may also block a user account for a certain period in order to investigate any breach of contract.

The User confirms his or her identity in the Service through his or her email address, as well as in climate offsets through payment by credit card. ClimateHero cannot be held responsible for unauthorized use of the Service in the event that the User’s e-mail address or credit card is used by an unauthorized person.

3. Guidelines for Carbon Offsets

The User’s estimated carbon footprint is carbon offset by 200%.

In the case that the User chooses to also compensate for additional adults in the household, these are assumed to have the same climate impact as the User. In the case that Users choose to also climate compensate for children in the household, these are assumed to have half as large a carbon footprint as the User.

The climate offsets are done in a portfolio of climate compensation projects that are shared by all Users of the Service.

The guidelines for the portfolio are reviewed yearly and can be found at https://climatehero.me/climate-projects/.

• At least 75% of the compensated volume shall consist of projects with the Gold Standard certification
• A maximum of 25% of compensated volume must be in “Good Bets”, i.e. projects for which it is more difficult to calculate the exact climate benefit, but which are also extremely effective with conservative assumptions.
• The remaining 0-25% of compensated volume shall be in projects with the certification CDM

4. Prices

The carbon offset is done at a fixed monthly cost regulated in ClimateHero’s price list.

Price adjustments are made at most once per calendar year and are notified to the User no later than 30 days before the changes take effect.
