Version 1.0 · Template — have it reviewed by your legal counsel before launch.

  1. Platform role. Project Carbon is a technology platform and aggregator/project developer. For third-party listings it acts as an electronic commerce operator; the seller is the supplier of the credits.
  2. Points are not money. Points and grades are a non-transferable recognition score. They are not currency, securities, deposits or a promise of payment.
  3. Earnings. Volunteers earn only from (a) published bounties after verification and (b) a disclosed share of proceeds when pooled credits are actually issued and sold. No fixed return is guaranteed. Carbon credits are not investment products.
  4. Land & carbon rights. You must own the land or hold written consent of the owner/authority. Carbon rights from pooled projects are assigned to the project proponent under the volunteer agreement in exchange for the disclosed revenue share.
  5. No double counting. The same outcome must not be claimed under another programme, registry or platform.
  6. Fraud. Fake photos, recycled evidence or inflated quantities lead to reversal of points/earnings, account suspension and may be reported to authorities.
  7. Taxes. GST and TCS/TDS are applied as per law. Sellers are responsible for their own GST returns.
  8. Governing law. Laws of India; courts at Kolkata. Disputes first go to online mediation.
