WHY GET CERTIFIED

Obtaining the Green Bit Certificate means scientifically validating your commitment to digital sustainability, distinguishing yourself from technical greenwashing.

• ESG Validation: Provides reliable data for Sustainability Reporting.
• Technical Authority: Demonstrates excellence in IT infrastructure.
• User Respect: Guarantees universal accessibility (even in zones with Digital Divide).
• Carbon Footprint Reduction: Attests to a real reduction in CO2 emissions per visit.

CERTIFICATION LEVELS

The grade is assigned based on test results under 4G network conditions:

• CLASS A+ (Gold): Payload < 0.8 MB | TTFB < 200 ms | CO2 < 0.2g
• CLASS A (Silver): Payload < 1.5 MB | TTFB < 400 ms | CO2 < 0.5g
• CLASS B (Standard): Payload < 2.5 MB | TTFB < 600 ms | CO2 < 0.8g

Below Class B, the audit is considered "Failed" and the certification is not issued.

THE AUDIT PROCESS

1. Preliminary Analysis: Automated scan of the golden metrics.
2. Deep Technical Review: Analysis of HAR files, compression processes, and server latency.
3. Certificate Issuance: Delivery of the Dynamic Seal to be displayed on your portal.
4. Annual Monitoring: Periodic performance checks to prevent code degradation.
