1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using GaugeH2 (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service. These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and the operator of GaugeH2:

- Tax ID (NIF): 47763383L
- Address: Av. Pau Casals 19, A 3-2, 43840 Salou (Tarragona), Spain

Where these terms refer to GaugeH2, “we” or “us” as a party, they mean that operator.
You accept these terms by ticking the acceptance box when you create your account. We keep a record of the version you accepted, when, and the IP address and browser used. The version in force is shown at the top of this page.
We may update these terms. When we publish a new version, you will be asked to accept it the next time you use your account, and you cannot keep using your account until you do. If you do not accept it, you may close your account.
How the contract is made
To sign up you fill in the registration form, tick the acceptance box and confirm. You can correct any data before confirming, and later from your account settings. When paid plans are available, you subscribe to one by choosing it on the pricing page and completing the payment on Stripe’s checkout page, and we confirm each payment by email with its receipt or invoice. The contract is concluded in English. We keep the accepted version of these terms, and you can read and save it from this page at any time.
2. Service Description
GaugeH2 is a hydrogen project intelligence platform providing:
- Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) calculations using a Discounted Cash Flow methodology
- Project tracking and analysis tools for green hydrogen initiatives
- Readiness Score assessments based on publicly available project data
- Benchmarking and comparison features for hydrogen projects
All calculations are estimates based on user-provided inputs and publicly available data. GaugeH2 does not provide financial, investment, legal, or engineering advice.
3. User Accounts
To access certain features you must create an account. You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Ensuring that information you provide is accurate and up to date
- Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access
You must be at least 18 years old and have legal capacity to enter into contracts to create an account. Accounts may not be transferred to third parties without our prior written consent.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or remain inactive for extended periods.
4. Paid Plans: Businesses and Professionals Only
Paid plans are not offered at present, and no payment is taken through the Service. This section and section 8 will apply only if paid plans are introduced. Before any payment, we will publish updated terms and ask you to accept them.
GaugeH2 is a professional tool. Paid plans are offered and sold only to businesses and to professionals acting for purposes related to their trade, business, craft or profession. They are not offered to consumers.
When you subscribe to a paid plan you confirm that you are buying in that capacity, and you give your billing address and, where available in your country, your company name and VAT or tax identification number. Prices are shown excluding VAT; VAT and other taxes are added where they apply.
If we learn that a paid plan was bought by a consumer, we may cancel it and refund the amount paid.
5. Pilot Programme
We may give selected users or organisations access to the Service’s advanced features at no cost through our pilot programme. Places are limited, and we decide who receives pilot access.
Pilot access lasts for the period we state when we grant it. It is free of charge: you do not pay for it, and we do not ask for anything in return. You or we may end it at any time. When it ends, your account, or your organisation’s workspace, returns to the Free plan and keeps its data, as described in section 9.
These terms apply to pilot access in the same way as to the rest of the Service.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Violate any applicable law or regulation
- Scrape, crawl, or systematically extract data without prior written permission
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code
- Introduce malware, viruses, or other harmful code
- Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation
- Circumvent any access controls, rate limits, or security measures
- Use the Service for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose
No plan includes access to an API. Automated access to the Service, and using it to build competing products, require a separate written agreement.
7. Intellectual Property
All content, design, code, methodology, and data on the Service are the exclusive property of GaugeH2 or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You retain ownership of data you input into the Service. By using the Service, you grant GaugeH2 a limited, non-exclusive license to process your data solely to provide the Service. We do not sell your input data to third parties.
Aggregated and anonymized benchmark data derived from platform usage may be used by GaugeH2 to improve the Service and produce industry reports. Individual data is never shared in identifiable form.
Project data is adapted from the IEA Hydrogen Projects Database (© IEA), licensed under CC BY 4.0. GaugeH2 has modified it (cleaning, de-duplication and enrichment); the IEA does not endorse the Service.
8. Refund Policy
This section applies only if paid plans are introduced (see section 4). At present there are no subscriptions, renewals or charges.
Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually in advance. You may cancel at any time from your dashboard settings. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period.
Automatic renewal. Unless you cancel before the end of the current period, your subscription renews automatically for a period of the same length, at the price then shown on the pricing page, and the payment method on file is charged on the renewal date.
Free trials. A free trial is offered once. When a trial of a paid plan was started with a payment method, it converts into a paid subscription at the end of the trial and the first charge is made then, unless you cancel before the trial ends. A trial started without a payment method ends without any charge.
We do not offer pro-rated refunds for partial months. For accidental charges or disputes, contact contact@gh2.ai within 7 days of the charge.
9. Your Data and Switching
With a paid plan or pilot access, you can export your calculations at any time from your dashboard, in CSV format. On the Free plan, and when a paid subscription or pilot access ends, your data stays in your account, and you can ask for a CSV copy of your calculations by writing to contact@gh2.ai; we send it at no cost. We do not charge any fee for leaving the Service or moving to another provider. If you need help exporting your data to switch provider, write to the same address.
10. Use of Artificial Intelligence
Part of the public project catalogue and of the regulatory summaries is generated or enriched with artificial intelligence systems. Projects marked as verified have been reviewed by a person. The calculations, reports and their figures do not use artificial intelligence: they come from a deterministic engine whose method is published on the methodology page.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
GaugeH2 does not warrant that:
- The Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure
- Calculation results are accurate for any specific project or investment decision
- Data sourced from third parties is current, complete, or accurate
- The Service will meet your specific requirements
Results from the LCOH calculator and Readiness Score are estimates for informational purposes only. They should not be used as the sole basis for any financial, engineering, or investment decision. Always consult qualified professionals for project-specific analysis.
12. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GaugeH2 and its officers, directors, employees, and licensors shall not be liable for:
- Any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages
- Loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities
- Decisions made based on platform outputs or calculations
- Service interruptions or data loss
Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising from use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to GaugeH2 in the 12 months preceding the claim, or €100, whichever is greater.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations of liability. In such cases, our liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Spain and applicable European Union regulations, without regard to conflict of law principles.
Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Spain.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any right that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
