When used in these Terms, “Abatable”, “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refers to ZERO IMPRINT LIMITED (t/a ABATABLE), a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (Company No. 13366032).

If you subscribe to our Reward Programme on behalf, in representation of or as part of a business entity, you agree to these Terms on behalf of that business entity and you represent that you have the authority to do so. In such case, “Partner“, “you” or “your” will refer to that business entity.

1. BACKGROUND

Abatable is a carbon procurement and market intelligence company that creates solutions that help organisations use the power of the carbon market to achieve maximum impact for the planet. In connection with Abatable’s Market Intelligence solution, Abatable has implemented a Rewards Programme to enter into a series of non-exclusive data partnerships in which, in return for providing certain information to Abatable for use in connection with its Market Intelligence solution, Partners are rewarded on the terms and conditions set out in this Terms.

2. JOINING THE PROGRAMME, TERM AND TERMINATION

These Terms shall come into force upon your application to the Rewards Programme via our website and shall remain in effect until the rejection or termination of your subscription as per the terms below. 

Upon submitting your application, you will be directed to our Platform to create or sign into your account. Within ten (10)  days of your application, you are required to submit data for historical trades that cover the last six (6) months of operations or at least twenty (20) trades using the template provided by us. 

Upon receiving your first data submission, we will review it and other relevant information to determine whether to accept you into the Rewards Programme. Acceptance into the Rewards Programme is at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to reject any application for any reason, without the obligation to provide an explanation. If your application is rejected, these Terms will immediately terminate with respect to the Rewards Programme. You will not become a participant in the Rewards Programme. However, you may continue to use the platform and its other features in accordance with the Platform’s general Terms and Conditions.

If your application is accepted, your subscription to the Rewards Programme shall commence on the day that we notify you of your acceptance (the “Notification Date”) and it shall continue until the first anniversary of the Notification Date (“Initial Term“). At the end of the Initial Term (and each Renewal Term) your subscription and these Terms shall automatically renew for periods of 12 months (each a “Renewal Term“, and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) unless either you or we provide the other party with a written notice of non-renewal at least 30 days prior to the date of expiry of the Initial Term (or the then-current Renewal Term). Abatable may terminate your subscription and these Terms and exclude you from the Rewards Programme by notice in writing with immediate effect in the event that: (a) Abatable reasonably determines that any information disclosed by you is materially incomplete or inaccurate; or (b) you fail to comply with your obligations in Clause 3 or breach any other of the Terms.
