You also agree to our Privacy Policy which covers how we collect, use, share and store your personal information.

You should print a copy of these Terms and Conditions for future reference.
Any words following the terms including, include, in particular or for example or any similar phrase shall be construed as illustrative and shall not limit the generality of the related general words.
- The services
- GTO App. The GTO App is free to download and allows you to record the use of fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-Gases) and calculate the global warming potentials and carbon dioxide equivalent values.
- You are responsible for ensuring that the data you record in the GTO App is accurate. The calculation of global warming potentials and carbon dioxide equivalent values are dependent on the data you input.
- We use global warming potential data from independent third party sources. To the best of our knowledge and belief this data is accurate and reliable.
- The Website. The Website allows you to access and generate Reports relating to the usage of F-Gases that you record in the GTO App. The Website also allows you to manage your account including permissions, customers, locations, equipment and to create and assign jobs.
- The Reports. The Reports you are able to access and generate on the Website are created from the data you provide. Such Reports are only for your benefit and are only to be used by you save that if you have subscribed to the Enhanced Service such reports shall be for the benefit of, and may be used by, all Users registered against the relevant subscription. They may vary from any images of the Reports we may make available on the Website which will be for illustrative purposes only.
- We offer two subscriptions:
- free subscription – this gives you use of the GTO App, the Website and the basic Reports; and
- Enhanced Service – this gives you use of the GTO App, the Website and the basic Reports and enhanced reporting functionality which can be tailored by you to suit your business needs. The Enhanced Service also allows you to link multiple Users to the same subscription to enable, amongst other things, Reports consolidating the data provided by all such Users, and the recording of additional data including but not limited to the use of refrigerants. If you are a subscriber to the Enhanced Service then references in these Terms and Conditions to "Services" shall be construed as including the Enhanced Services.
- If you would like to purchase a subscription for our Enhanced Services please contact the GTO support team using the contact form available at www.gastrakonline.com or by telephoning 01275376600. The GTO support team is available Monday to Friday between the hours of 08:00–17:00.
- Our FAQs page has more detail about the tiers of subscription, how we will invoice you and subscription activation for Enhanced Services.
- Personal Data. We only use your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy as it contains important information which will apply to you.
- If you submit and store any personal data in respect of which you are data controller (e.g. you store personal data about your customers) then we shall:
- undertake processing of personal data only within the scope of instructions received from you and to the extent necessary for the purpose of performing the Services; and
- provide appropriate technical and organisational measures against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss or destruction or damage of the personal data.
Personal data and processing shall have the meanings given to them in the Data Protection Act 1998 and for the purposes of this paragraph 2.10 references to 'personal data' are to the personal data of which you are data controller.
- Third Party Sites. The Services may contain links to other independent third-party websites (Third-party Sites). Third-party Sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for and do not endorse their content or their privacy policies (if any). You will need to make your own independent judgement regarding your interaction with any Third-party Sites, including the purchase and use of any products or services accessible through them.
