(“QuoteToMe“). In consideration for your right to access and use the Site, you agree to the terms and conditions set out below.
As used in this Agreement, “you” means (and “your” refers to) the user of the Site, “we” means (and “us”, “our”, and “ours” refer to) QuoteToMe, and “Services” means any and all services and products that are made available on or through the Site. The effective date of this Agreement is when you accept it, in accordance with the terms and conditions that are set out below.
IMPORTANT! YOUR ACCESS TO THE SITE IS SUBJECT TO LEGALLY BINDING TERMS AND CONDITIONS. CAREFULLY READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS BEFORE YOU PROCEED. ACCESSING THIS SITE IS THE EQUIVALENT OF YOUR SIGNATURE AND INDICATES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND THAT YOU INTEND TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THEM. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SITE.
Part 1 – Contractors
Part 1 applies only to a “Contractor” or “Contractors” (as those terms are described in Part 1 above). As used in this Part, “you” means (and “your” refers to) a Contractor, or Contractors, as the case may be, and “we” means (and “us”, “our”, and “ours” refer to) QuoteToMe.
- Our Services
The Site connects you with Suppliers, who want to offer you Quotes for building materials, consumables and expendables, construction services, and construction equipment for rental and sales. You get to create customized Quote Requests for your projects, the Site and Services provide the opportunity to select winning Suppliers and issue Purchase Orders. Your past and current Quote Requests and Purchase Orders are fully visible, allowing you to make empowered decisions about your purchasing needs on a go-forward basis.
- Payment
Fees for Services and payment terms are as described in the Service Agreement.
- Information for Quote Requests
When you provide information to populate your Quote Requests, you need to provide the Site information which is used by Suppliers to respond with Quotes. You represent and warrant that: (a) you are legally entitled to submit the Quote Request to the Site, in the manner you describe the Quote Request; and (b) all information you submit to us regarding the Quote Request is true and correct.
Part 2 – General Terms and Conditions
Part 2 applies to all users of the Site. As used in this Part, “you” means (and “your” refers to) the user of the Site, “we” means (and “us”, “our”, and “ours” refer to) QuoteToMe. Terms which are defined in Part 1 and Part 2 have the same meaning throughout this Agreement, notwithstanding that Part 1 only applies to Suppliers and Part 2 only applies to Contractors.
- No Recourse
QuoteToMe (as the owner and operator of the Site and the Services), Suppliers and Contractors are all fully independent contracting parties. Any products or services offered by a Supplier and accepted by a Contractor, are offered for rental or sale and accepted independently from, and to the full exclusion of, QuoteToMe, at a price which is set at the full, sole and exclusive discretion of the Supplier and to the full exclusion of QuoteToMe. Any price suggested by a Supplier is subject to negotiation between the Supplier and the Contractor, on their own behalf and for their own benefit, as fully competent contracting parties independent of QuoteToMe. For greater certainty, QuoteToMe provides an enabling platform to connect Suppliers and Contractors, only.
In addition, your use of the Site and the Services may rely on information which is offered by Suppliers. We have no responsibility to you for anything these third parties do (or fail to do) and we provide no warranties or guarantees about third parties or the information or services they provide. Your use of such services may be subject to specific terms and conditions which are set by those third parties. Further, we are not a party to any relationship between you and any third party which is formed as a result of a successful Quote, Purchase Order, or otherwise through the Site or the Services, including, but not limited to, you and a Supplier, and as such, we have no responsibility to you as regards to your relationships with these third parties. You acknowledge and agree that you have no recourse against us for any acts or omissions of third parties, and your interaction with third parties is entirely at your own risk.

- we may engage service providers to assist us with fulfilling the purposes that are set out above, and, in some instances, these service providers may be located outside Canada. We only select service providers that protect personal information in a manner that is comparable to the protection we provide under our own privacy policies. Please be advised that personal information may be subject to, and accessed under, the laws of the countries in which our service providers operate. If you have any questions about our transfer of personal information to our service providers outside Canada, or if you would like to learn more about our privacy policies in that regard, please contact our Privacy Officer at the contact information provided below;

We have no responsibility for these third party websites, and you are advised to review the privacy policies of any third party websites you choose to visit;
- we protect personal information against such risks as loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, modification or destruction, through generally accepted security measures. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security measures;

However, this may limit our ability to provide you with certain services or products. You may contact us for more information regarding the implications of withdrawing consent;

In addition, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and you are responsible for all uses of your user name, whether by Authorized Users or otherwise, and whether or not you authorize such uses. You agree to notify us of any unauthorized use of your user name and password. We are not responsible for verifying your identity or the identity of anyone who uses your account, and we are not liable for any loss or damage as a result of your failure to protect your password.
