ZeroEx is operated by ZeroEx GmbH (Company No. BNR: 76832886), a company registered in the Federal Republic of Germany, with registered offices at Kaufingerstraße 24, 80331 München, (“ZeroEx”, “we” or “us”).
By accessing or using our platforms or websites (“Sites”) or the services at the Sites (“Services”) or making purchases via our Site, you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by these terms (“Terms”).
Use of our Sites and Services is also governed by our Privacy Policy which sets out how we collect, process and use your personal information.
Please read these Terms carefully before you start to use our Sites or Services or before making a purchase. We recommend that you print a copy of these Terms for future reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our Sites or Services or make a purchase.
1.1. These Terms were last updated on 06/12/2024.
1.2. By using our Sites and Services, you are agreeing to these Terms and (where applicable) representing that you are at least 18 years old. If you are under 18 years old, your legal guardian should review and agree to these terms.
1.3. ZeroEx reserves the right to amend or change these Terms at any time without notice. By using the Sites and Services after any changes have been posted, you agree to any new terms.
1.4. We may suspend, restrict or terminate your account, any contract entered into between us and/or your access to our Sites and Services with or without notice if we believe that you have breached these Terms.
2.1. These terms apply to purchases made through our website or e-commerce platform.
2.2. YOUR CARBON REMOVAL PURCHASE
2.2.1. Purchases made through our site will fund carbon removal activities using the process of enhanced rock weathering. The carbon dioxide will be progressively removed from the atmosphere as the rock weathers over time. While we do not specify fixed amount of carbon dioxide to be removed each year, our projects operate on a 10-year timeline. This means that the total amount of carbon dioxide will be removed by the final year specified at the point of purchase. For example, if you purchase the removal of 40 kg of carbon dioxide in January 2025, the total 40 kg will be fully removed by 2035. Once the removal process is complete, the carbon dioxide will be permanently removed from the atmosphere.
2.2.2. We reserve the right to determine the precise timing of the rock-spreading and the location of the spreading, which may be on multiple pieces of land and in different geographies in order to achieve the carbon removal.
2.2.3. Upon purchase, the buyer will receive a confirmation email containing a link to the Isometric Registry, where the credits will be viewable upon delivery.
2.2.4. Where you are making a purchase as a consumer (and not a business customer), you agree that purchases made via our Sites may only be made by you in your personal (and not commercial) capacity and may not be used for commercial purposes.
2.3. MAKING A PURCHASE, CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS
2.3.1. No contract for the sale of any product or service will exist between us until we accept your order, which we will do by sending you an order confirmation email.
2.3.2. You have a statutory right to withdraw from your purchase within 14 days without giving any reason, as described in clause 2.5.
2.3.3. Purchases made in a business capacity (B2B transactions) are final and non-refundable unless required by law.
2.3.4. Refunds will be made via the original payment method and may take up to 14 days from the date we confirm the cancellation.
2.3.5. All prices include VAT where applicable. Additional fees for currency conversion or bank charges may apply for payments made in currencies other than Euros.

2.4.3. Where we have accepted your purchase as a business customer, you may use any correspondence we send to you and our trademarks, name and logo (“Our Materials”) to reference your purchase, provided that (I) you agree to comply with any instructions given by us in relation to the use of Our Materials (including any amendment request made by us) and (II) all use of Our Materials by you complies with the applicable rules and regulations relating to marketing, particularly in relation to green claims. Where you have used Our Materials in accordance with this clause, you will indemnify and hold ZeroEx and our affiliates harmless from and against all damages, losses, and expenses of any kind (including reasonable legal fees and costs) arising out of your use of Our Materials.
