GitLab is committed to sustainable business practices, including measuring, reporting, and reducing our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As a fully remote software company, our purchased goods and services make up a significant portion of our GHG footprint, and therefore our partners play an important role in helping to reduce GitLab’s emissions. Partners are expected to measure their GHG emissions on an annual basis and disclose the results to GitLab (if not publicly available), establish a science-aligned GHG emissions reduction target, and share progress toward achieving that target as reasonably requested by GitLab.
Partners also must comply with all applicable local, national, and international environmental laws and regulations and incorporate sustainable practices into their decision-making processes.
