We are a company making available CO2 footprint calculation services on a specifically
designed platform (the Platform is currently called GUES). Our services consist of
issuing a CO2 footprint certificate (CO2 Certificate), that you will be able to use far
various applications to banks or other bodies public or private in line with the EU
legislative developments on decreasing CO2 footprint in various industry sectors.
By submitting your request to have your CO2 footprint calculation set out in a CO2
Certificate, you agree to enter into a contract with us as per the terms and conditions
below:
1. Scope of Services:
1.1. We are providing you with a CO2 Certificate using our program algorithms
that incorporates adequate parameters in line with Greenhouse Gas Protocol
and relevant carbon emission EU Regulations

or
for your actual compliance with various specific regulations on CO2 emissions or
for other matters.
2. Delivery of our Services:
2.1. Our services are delivered by technical means only, without any personal
interaction. Your CO2 Certificate is the result of calculations following computer
algorithms. The Platform provides the only interaction means throughout our relationship. Neither our
partners nor our employees shall make or sign-off
calculations for the issue of your CO2 Certificate personally.
2.2.Our algorithm comprises a set of mathematical calculations that will process
your input data resulting in the issue of your CO2 Certificate. Our algorithm is
compliant to standard procedures for the examination of CO2 footprint commonly
used in the EU by banks and regulation authorities.
2.3. The Platform strictly serves as professional calculation tool aimed to be
used
for processing your CO2 data input. The Platform provides exclusively calculations

belonging to a third party. Calculations are made solely by our algorithms using
your input data, without any other external data, environment factors or other
outside indicators. We warrant strictly the accuracy of the algorithm calculations
used for your CO2 Certificate.
2.5. However, it may be the case that, when making calculations, our algorithm
acceses to external information sources such as emission data registered in
various records or databases (whether available publicly or made available to us
on our specifc request). We will promptly inform you in advance if this is the case.
Should you disagree with such sources being relied upon for the issue of your

upon your specific instructions we will be storing data of your company strictly for
the purposes of issuing new CO2 certificates.
5. Intelectual property:
We have designed this algorithm by our own independent research. The
algorithm and the programs we employ for the issue of your CO2 Certificate are
our exclusive intellectual property. You shall not copy or otherwise replicate in
whole or in part any of our algorithm or programmes we use for the calculations
translated into your CO2 Certificate, should you get into their possession.
