6.1. Description of Services

The Website and Mobile Application list environmental associations and organisations in France. The User can consult general information as well as the actions carried out by these associations/organisations.  

Clean4green only offers on the Mobile Application, a service for issuing environmental alerts on French territory. Based on a community system, Clean4green puts Members in contact with environmental associations or organisations registered on the Platform.  

Members via the Mobile Application can issue an environmental alert, add a follow-up and contribute their own findings on existing alerts, organise joint action days to deal with an alert, exchange with other Members... The purpose of these various features is to inform nearby associations/organisations and other Users in the event of pollution, health risks or any other type of alert concerning the protection of natural environments, so that we can all act together to preserve the environment. 

6.2. Profile

On the Website or Mobile Application, in the "my account" tab the Member may modify the following data at any time:

  • Profile photo
  • First and last name
  • Courtesy

Only the email address can no longer be changed after the Member has registered. If necessary the Member can make a request to Clean4green by email or by post, mentioned in article 15 subject to proving his identity.

6.3. Issuing environmental alerts

As a Member, and provided that the Member meets the conditions mentioned in the GTC, any registered Member may create and publish an alert on the Mobile Application.  

Here are the different types of environmental alerts that the Member can issue:

  • Wild dumping;
  • Other ;

To publish an alert, the Member must connect to the Mobile Application, click on "add an alert" indicating the following mandatory information:

  • His geolocation.

  • A description

Once recorded, the alert will be visible to all nearby Members and associations/organisations and everyone will be able to comment, add a follow-up or process the alert.

6.4. Noting and adding a follow-up to an environmental alert

The following types of monitoring are listed in the Mobile Application:

  • Cleaned;
  • Moved;
  • Enhanced ;
  • Other ;

We suggest different ways for Members to act depending on the situation:

If a Member also comes to notice an environmental problem (pollution, health risk...), already reported by another Member they can:

  • Confirm or disapprove the alert via a voting system;

If a Member notices that the alert issued by another Member has changed he can:

  • Add a comment;
  • Add a follow-up to the alert to fill in more information about the progress of the problem;

If a Member wishes to deal with the alert they can:

  • Process it autonomously and add a follow-up to close the alert, filling in the actions taken and completing it with photos in order to warn the community;
  • Add an organised follow-up to take action with the help of other Members;

6.6. Conditions for using environmental alerts

The Environmental Alert Service must be used solely for the purpose of informing other Members and associations/organisations of an environmental problem related to water and land.

If a Member uses this Service for purposes other than those previously mentioned, Clean4green reserves the right to delete or limit the account of the Member not complying with these TOS.

When an association/organisation wishes to remove its association page from the Platform, then the linked comments will be automatically deleted.
