By creating an account, subscribing to the Service, or otherwise accessing any portion of the Service, you ("User," "you," or "your") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not access or use the Service.

1. Description of Service

The Net Zero Playbook is a subscription-based professional reference and self-assessment platform providing content, frameworks, and tools related to corporate decarbonization strategy. The Service includes, but is not limited to:

Maturity framework content across Scope 1, Scope 2, Scope 3, and offset pathways;
Self-assessment tools enabling users to record current and target maturity levels;
AI-curated research articles refreshed on a periodic basis;
An archive of previously surfaced research content; and
A heatmap and benchmarking interface (where available).

The Service is intended for professional use by sustainability practitioners, consultants, corporate strategy teams, and related professionals. It does not constitute legal, financial, regulatory, or investment advice.

Provide accurate, complete, and current registration information;
Maintain the security of your account credentials and not share access with any other individual;
Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account;
Accept responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account.

Each subscription is licensed to a single named user. Sharing credentials, reselling access, or permitting concurrent use by multiple individuals under a single account is prohibited and may result in immediate termination.

3. Subscription and Payment

Access to the Service requires a paid monthly subscription following any applicable free trial period. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge the payment method on file on a recurring monthly basis.

Free Trial. Where a free trial is offered, no charge is made during the trial period. Your subscription begins and billing commences at the end of the trial unless you cancel before the trial expires.
Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No partial-month refunds are issued unless required by applicable law.
Price Changes. We reserve the right to modify subscription pricing with at least 30 days' advance notice. Continued use of the Service following a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
