How we use your Personal Information

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimise the Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

Stripe uses the Payment Information that it collects to fulfil any orders placed through the Site (including, but not limited to, processing your payment; your Payment Information; and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations).

We use the Payment Information we have access to (email address, name, removal amount and purchase date) to issue you with removal certificates; send you our newsletter and remove the correct amount of CO₂.

We use the Product Information to create the gift card (giver’s name, receiver’s name, removal amount, subscription duration); to send the gift card, notification emails and newsletters; issue removal certificates to the receiver (email address); and remove the correct amount of CO₂ in the correct time frame (removal amount, subscription duration). The recipient has the possibility to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time.

The Newsletter Information we use to provide you with regular updates. You have the possibility to unsubscribe at any time.

We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal Information, as described above.
