Terms & Use Notice — Version 1.1 · Last updated: May 2026 · Governing law: England & Wales.
1. What CBAMable is
CBAMable is a software preparation tool that helps businesses organise invoice, shipment, product, HS/CN code, weight and embedded emissions information for Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) evidence review. It does not provide legal, tax, customs, accounting, environmental, carbon verification or regulatory compliance advice of any kind.
2. No official or authorised status
CBAMable is not an official government, EU, HMRC, UK Border Force, customs authority, tax authority, CBAM Registry, accredited emissions verifier, authorised CBAM declarant or customs broker service. Use of this tool does not guarantee, evidence or constitute compliance with EU CBAM Regulation (EU) 2023/956, UK CBAM or any other carbon border, customs, trade, tax or environmental obligation. All official filings, declarations and submissions must be made through the relevant authorised channels.
3. HS/CN classification limitation
CBAMable assesses CBAM scope by matching HS/CN codes detected from uploaded documents against a list of monitored code prefixes. This is an automated pattern-match only. It is not a legal tariff classification, binding tariff information (BTI), customs ruling or official scope determination. Incorrect, ambiguous or missing HS/CN codes in source documents will produce incorrect scope assessments. Users must independently verify the correct HS/CN classification of all goods with a qualified customs classifier or broker before relying on any scope assessment this tool produces.
4. Automated extraction — human review required
CBAMable uses automated document parsing, text extraction, pattern matching and calculation. Automated outputs regularly contain errors, omissions, misreads and outdated assumptions, particularly from scanned PDFs, non-standard invoice layouts or multi-page documents. Every extracted field, line item, HS/CN code, weight, emissions value and calculated figure must be independently reviewed and confirmed by the user before it is used in any filing, declaration, customer communication or commercial decision.
5. Outputs are preparation records only
All CBAMable outputs — including filing support packs, readiness scores, exposure estimates, supplier request emails, ledger records and archive exports — are draft preparation documents only. They are not certificates, legal opinions, verified emissions statements, customs declarations, tax calculations or official CBAM Registry filings. The carbon price exposure estimate is a rough indication based on a user-editable assumption and must not be treated as a financial liability calculation or official certificate cost.
6. Regulations change
CBAM rules, implementation guidance, sector scope, default emissions values, certificate prices, reporting formats, authorised declarant requirements and enforcement timelines are subject to change by the European Commission, HMRC and other authorities. CBAMable does not guarantee that its regulatory dataset, scope logic or default values reflect the current state of the law. Users must verify current requirements directly with the relevant authority or a qualified adviser before making any submission or commercial decision.
7. User responsibility
Users remain solely and fully responsible for: the accuracy of all data uploaded or entered; correct HS/CN tariff classification; determining whether CBAM applies to their goods and trade routes; importer and declarant obligations under applicable legislation; the completeness and accuracy of embedded emissions data and methodology; supporting evidence for any deductions claimed; and all filings, declarations and reports submitted to any authority. CBAMable is a preparation aid only. Responsibility for compliance does not transfer to CBAMable or its operators at any point.
8. Uploaded documents and authorisation
By uploading a document, the user confirms they are authorised to process and share its contents for this purpose. Users must not upload documents that would breach confidentiality obligations, trade secrets protections, data protection law, export controls, sanctions restrictions or third-party intellectual property rights. Documents containing personal data must only be uploaded where the user has a lawful basis to do so under UK GDPR.
9. Data protection and UK GDPR
CBAMable is a live platform. Invoice documents are processed locally in your browser using client-side PDF and Excel parsing libraries — the raw document bytes are not transmitted to CBAMable servers. Extracted text, line item data, account details, subscription status and usage records are stored securely in CBAMable’s cloud infrastructure (Supabase, hosted on AWS eu-west-1). Payment transactions are processed exclusively by Stripe, Inc. and are subject to Stripe’s privacy policy. CBAMable does not store payment card data.
CBAMable operates as data controller for account and usage data under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where CBAMable processes personal data on behalf of business users in relation to their own customers or employees, CBAMable may act as data processor and a Data Processing Agreement is available on request from support@cbamable.com. Users who upload documents containing personal data must ensure they have a lawful basis to do so under UK GDPR. For all data queries, access requests or deletion requests: support@cbamable.com.
10. Marketing communications (UK PECR)
CBAMable will only send marketing emails to users who have given explicit opt-in consent at the point of account creation, in accordance with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and UK GDPR. Users may withdraw consent at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any marketing email or by contacting support@cbamable.com. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of communications sent before withdrawal.
11. No emissions verification or green claims substantiation
CBAMable does not independently verify emissions data, carbon footprints, carbon prices paid, production methodologies, supplier declarations or environmental claims. All emissions figures shown are user-supplied, supplier-supplied or document-extracted and have not been independently verified unless a separate verifier statement is attached. CBAMable outputs must not be used to substantiate any carbon-neutral, net-zero, low-carbon, sustainable or similar marketing or environmental claim. Such claims require independent verification by an appropriately accredited third party.
12. No automated authority submission
CBAMable does not and cannot submit CBAM declarations, customs entries, carbon certificates, tax returns or filings to HMRC, the EU CBAM Registry, the CBAM Declarant Portal or any other official authority. All official filings must be made through the relevant authorised channel, using an authorised CBAM declarant where required under EU CBAM Regulation (EU) 2023/956.
13. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CBAMable and its operators exclude all liability for: indirect, consequential, special or punitive loss; regulatory penalties or fines; rejected, late or incorrect CBAM declarations or customs entries; loss arising from incorrect HS/CN classification, scope assessment or emissions calculation; missed filing deadlines; business interruption; or loss of profit, revenue, contracts or anticipated savings, whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such loss.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Where legislation confers rights on consumers that cannot be excluded (including under the Consumer Rights Act 2015), those rights are not affected by these terms.
Where CBAMable is used in the course of business (B2B), the total aggregate liability of CBAMable and its operators for all claims arising from use of the platform shall not exceed the greater of: the total fees paid by the user in the twelve months preceding the claim, or £100.
14. No professional relationship
Use of CBAMable does not create a lawyer-client, tax adviser-client, customs agent-client, accountant-client, verifier-client or any other professional advisory relationship. CBAMable is not a regulated activity under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, the Customs (Import Duty) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018 or any equivalent legislation.
15. Professional advice
Users are strongly encouraged to seek independent advice from a qualified customs broker, CBAM consultant, solicitor, tax adviser or accredited emissions verifier before submitting any CBAM-related filing, declaration, supplier communication or carbon-related claim based on CBAMable outputs.
16. Complaints and corrections
If you believe a CBAMable output is incorrect, incomplete or misleading: stop using that output immediately; correct the underlying source data; regenerate the pack; and contact support@cbamable.com. We will acknowledge complaints within 5 business days and aim to resolve them within 20 business days. Where a dispute cannot be resolved directly, parties may refer the matter to the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) for mediation before commencing legal proceedings.
17. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales. Any dispute arising from or in connection with these terms or the use of CBAMable shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, save that nothing prevents either party from applying to any court for emergency injunctive or other interim relief.
18. Changes to these terms
CBAMable reserves the right to update these terms. Where a material change is made to terms applicable to paid accounts, registered users will be notified by email at least 14 days before the change takes effect. Continued use of the platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
19. Acceptance
By using CBAMable, uploading documents or generating a filing support pack, you confirm that you have read and understood these terms, have independently reviewed all extracted data before use, and remain solely responsible for any decisions, filings or communications made on the basis of CBAMable outputs.
Automated data extraction and user verification
CBAMable may use automated extraction services, including third-party processing (Anthropic), to assist with reading invoice data. When this is used, invoice text is sent to that third-party service for processing. No invoice documents or files are transmitted — only the extracted text content. All extracted data is presented for your review and confirmation before being used in any CBAM output. Extracted values are not guaranteed to be accurate and must be independently verified by the user before use in any regulatory filing, submission or commercial decision. CBAMable accepts no liability for errors arising from automated extraction. You may add or correct line items manually at any time.
