1. General Information

These Terms and Conditions of Use (“TCU”) govern the use by the user (“User”) of the functionalities offered through the website https://motorverde.fundacionrepsol.com (“Website”) by its owner, REPSOL IMPACTO SOCIAL, S.L.U.

RIS is a company wholly owned by Fundación Repsol, which, together with Grupo Sylvestris, S.L., has developed a programme called “Motor Verde”, aimed at developing CO2 absorption projects in the Iberian Peninsula (“Motor Verde”), with the objective of covering a wide area in the coming years. These carbon absorption projects are based on the reforestation and afforestation of wastelands or areas previously affected by fires, with the aim of regenerating these natural spaces with a triple positive impact: environmental, social, and economic, for society (“Forests”).2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

For Forests located in Spain, these may be registered or in the process of registration in the “Spanish Registry of Carbon Footprint, Compensation and CO2 Absorption Projects” under the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge of the Government of Spain (“MITERD”), through the Spanish Office for Climate Change (“OECC”).2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

As part of Motor Verde, RIS has developed the Website as a technological tool to enable the User to participate in the Forests through: (i) a voluntary financial contribution to various Forests to enable the reforestation and conservation of natural ecosystems in the fight against climate change (“Contribution to Reforestation”) and, where applicable, (ii) the Acquisition of CO2 absorptions for carbon footprint compensation in the Spanish Registry (hereinafter, the “Acquisition of CO2 Absorptions”).2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

These TCU apply to all functionalities of the Website used by the User. Therefore, the use of the RIS Website, as well as the contribution, acquisition, and/or contracting of any RIS or third-party product or service through the Website, implies, in all cases, the prior reading and acceptance—by ticking the corresponding box—of these TCU, which are complemented by the specific conditions of such functionality, product, or service, and by the provisions of the Legal Notice, Privacy Policy, and Cookies Policy of the Website. Once the User accepts these TCU, an electronic file evidencing the contract with contractual value will be generated and electronically archived in RIS’s files.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

3. Purpose of the Website

The purpose of the Website is:

  • To publicise the Forests promoted or supported by RIS as part of its social purpose and commitment to sustainability, the environment, and the fight against climate change.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • To facilitate participation in Forests in the Iberian Peninsula through:

3.2.1 A Contribution to Reforestation

The User may manage their request to contribute financially to a series of Forests in different locations across the Iberian Peninsula. The User should note that their financial contribution to the Forests will be used to reforest, or assume the economic impact of what has already been reforested, a part of the forest area in question—calculated automatically in square metres or units of trees or CO2, based on the amount contributed—but will not be considered as “compensation” for their carbon footprint as indicated by the applicable regulations and/or bodies, specifically by the OECC of the MITERD. The financial contribution is voluntary and does not grant the User any right of ownership, use, access, control, carbon footprint compensation, benefits, usufruct, title, yield, or participation over the land, projects, results, carbon credits, or any tangible or intangible asset related thereto, being solely a support for reforestation, without generating any additional rights of any kind.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

3.2.2 Acquisition of CO2 Absorptions for Carbon Footprint Compensation in the Spanish Registry

A legal entity User wishing to acquire absorptions to offset their carbon footprint in the Spanish Registry of the OECC of the MITERD must meet the following conditions:

  • Prove that they are in the process of or have completed the registration of their carbon footprint with the MITERD and have therefore obtained or are in the process of obtaining the “CALCULO” seal.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • Users wishing to offset at least 75% of their carbon footprint must make a Contribution to Reforestation through the Website, for a volume equal to or greater than twice the tonnes they wish to offset. As a result, they will receive 50% of these tonnes associated with said contribution, which may be used for the voluntary offsetting of their carbon footprint in the MITERD.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • Users wishing to offset less than 75% of their carbon footprint must make a Contribution to Reforestation through the Website, for an amount equal to or greater than TEN THOUSAND EUROS (€10,000) including VAT. As a result, they will receive 18% of these tonnes associated with said contribution, which may be used for the voluntary offsetting of their carbon footprint in the MITERD.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • Prior notification to RIS by email (participamotorverde@repsolimpactosocial.com) of their intention to make an Acquisition of absorptions.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • Compliance with RIS’s third-party due diligence measures.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • Absorptions for carbon footprint compensation will be delivered to the User once payment is effective, in a single transaction or by subscription, until the contribution amount is completed.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • This modality does not apply to Contributions to Reforestation made prior to 27/11/2024; it is not retroactive to that date.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
  • The contract for the acquisition of CO2 absorptions for carbon footprint compensation must be signed and sent to RIS once the Contribution to Reforestation has been made through the Website.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

This acquisition will entitle the User to offset their CO2 emissions in the Spanish Registry of Carbon Footprint and Compensation of the OECC, enabling them to receive the “COMPENSO” seal granted by the MITERD to entities voluntarily registered in the aforementioned registry.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones

For clarification, the User may only acquire absorptions available for compensation in the OECC Spanish Registry. The allocation of absorptions for compensation will be made in a single act and once the contribution payment is completed.2025.11.17 Marketplace - Actualizacion Terminos y condiciones
