EMFF is a Swiss nonprofit foundation dedicated to advancing integrity, transparency and fairness in environmental markets through initiatives, research, cooperation and international engagement.

Purpose and scope of the website

This website is institutional and informational. Its purpose is to share EMFF’s activities, initiatives, publications and partnerships, and to make it easy for interested organizations and stakeholders to get in touch.

In its current configuration, the website does not offer online contracting, online donations, payment services, paid training or private user areas. It does allow visitors to subscribe to an EMFF newsletter, whose data processing is described in the Privacy Policy. If any of these features are enabled in the future, the legal texts will be reviewed before they go live.

Terms of use

Users agree to use the website lawfully and with respect for the rights of EMFF and third parties. Any action that compromises the security, integrity or availability of the website is prohibited, including introducing malicious software, unauthorized access and fraudulent use of content or forms.

EMFF may take proportionate measures to protect its systems and prevent unlawful use. Simply browsing the website does not amount to consent to any data processing that legally requires it.

Intellectual and industrial property

Unless otherwise stated, the texts, materials, photographs, graphic elements, designs, documents and other content published on this website belong to EMFF or are used with the authorization or license of their owners. Their use is subject to applicable law and to legal exceptions and limitations, including those relating to quotation and other permitted uses.

Third-party trade names, trademarks and logos that appear on the website belong to their respective owners and are shown for identification purposes only. EMFF does not claim ownership of Nature Integrity Methodology, which was developed by Biodiversity Intelligence for Cercarbono’s Biodiversity Certification Programme (CBCP); both organizations have approved its mention on this website.

Accuracy of information and limitation of liability

EMFF strives to keep the information published accurate and up to date, but does not guarantee uninterrupted availability or the complete absence of errors. Content is provided for institutional and informational purposes and, unless expressly stated otherwise, does not constitute legal, financial, technical or investment advice or a binding contractual offer.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, EMFF is not liable for damage resulting from unlawful use of the website by third parties, interruptions beyond its reasonable control, or content on external websites over which it has no control. This clause does not limit any rights or liabilities that cannot be waived by law.

Links and third-party services

The website may include links to the websites of partners, social networks or external providers. Access to those websites is subject to their own terms and policies. If embedded external content is added, its activation and the related data processing will be described in the Privacy Policy and the Cookie Policy.

Data protection

The processing of personal data carried out through the website is described in the Privacy Policy. The use of cookies or technologies that are not strictly necessary is explained in the Cookie Policy, together with the options for managing consent.

Governing law and jurisdiction

EMFF’s organization and institutional activity are governed by Swiss law, without prejudice to mandatory provisions applicable in other jurisdictions. Where the choice of forum is legally valid, disputes relating to this website will be submitted to the competent courts of Zurich, Switzerland. This clause does not limit users’ non-waivable rights or mandatory jurisdiction rules.

The use of hosting infrastructure in Spain does not, by itself, constitute an establishment of EMFF in that country. Whether certain Spanish obligations apply to a provider domiciled in Switzerland must be assessed based on the services actually directed at Spain and other relevant circumstances (Article 4 of Spanish Law 34/2002, where applicable).

Changes and contact

EMFF may update this Legal Notice to reflect organizational, legislative or technical changes. The current version will be available on this page and will show its update date. For questions about the website, please write to info [arroba] efairmarkets.earth.
