The Platform and its contents are the exclusive property of Groupe Moovea Inc., also doing business under the name Flexter, a corporation governed by the Business Corporations Act(Quebec), having its head office at 33 Prince, #310, Montreal, Qc, H3C 2M7 ("Moovea," "we," "us" or "our").

1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.1 TERMS OF USE

These terms and conditions of use constitute an agreement (the "Terms of Use") between Moovea and each user (the "User," "you," "your," or "yours") of the Moovea Platform. Your access to the Platform and your use of the Services (as defined below) are subject to your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms of Use. Any access to, or use of, the Platform or the Services by you constitutes your acceptance and your agreement to abide by the terms and conditions of the Terms of Use. We invite you to read these Terms of Use carefully before using our Services or Platform in any way

1.2 PRIVACY POLICY

Your subscription to our Services and use of our Platform are also subject to your compliance with and acceptance of Moovea's Privacy Policy (hereinafter, the "Privacy Policy").

2. SERVICES OFFERED

2.1 MATCHMAKING SERVICES

The services offered by Moovea consist of a technology-based matchmaking platform that allows a User to view and compare rental offers posted by third-party companies (each a "Partner") offering rental services for road vehicles and ancillary equipment (collectively, the "Equipment"). Moovea's services herein include but are not limited to: (i) aggregating on the Platform the various Equipment rental offers that are made available by Partners (the "Offers"); (ii) connecting Users with Partners; and (iii) providing, where applicable, an integrated payment solution on the Platform to facilitate the exchange of funds between Users and Partners. All services described in this paragraph are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Services" for the purposes of these Terms of Use.

2.2 FEES OF SERVICES

The Services provided by Moovea may be subject to the User's payment of a fee payable for each Reservation (as defined below) made through the Platform. The amount of such fee, if any, will be indicated on the Platform. When you make a Reservation, you accept and agree to pay such consideration, where applicable. This fee is payable to Moovea in addition to the rental fee for a Reservation that is payable to a Partner.

2.3 LIMITED ROLE OF MOOVEA

You understand and agree that:

2.3.1 Moovea is not a provider of Equipment rental services, and that Moovea's Services are limited to those provided in paragraph 2.1 above. Moovea collects and aggregates Offers on the Platform so that you can easily compare those available to you in the marketplace and make a Reservation with a Partner. Moovea is not a party to any contract that you may enter into with a Partner through the Platform as a result of a Reservation. Under no circumstances shall there be a rental agreement between you and Moovea. Moovea does not intend or have the ability to enter into a contract for the rental of Equipment with you. Any rental agreement for Equipment that arises from the Services shall be solely between you and the Partner on such terms and conditions as shall be determined and agreed upon by you and the Partner pursuant to the Reservation;

2.3.2 Moovea owes you an obligation of means only, meaning that Moovea shall use its best efforts to obtain and distribute on its Platform the most up-to-date, complete and accurate information from Partners, but Moovea cannot guarantee that such information is at all times effectively up-to-date, complete and accurate. Moovea shall in no circumstance be held responsible, directly or indirectly, for any erroneous information or Offer posted by a Partner on the Platform;

2.3.3 These Terms of Use do not create a corporation, partnership, joint ownership or any other form of association between you, Moovea and the Partners. You further understand and agree that Moovea and any Partner are separate legal entities and businesses; and

2.3.4 Moovea does not warrant or guarantee in any way the quality of the services that may be provided to you by a Partner, which shall remain solely liable for any damage or loss that may result from the services it renders to you. Moovea does not supervise, direct or control the performance of work by the Partners. Specifically, Moovea has no authority to give orders or directions to Partners, has no control over the quality of the Equipment that Partners offer for rent, and has no legal authority to sanction a Partner’s breach of any rental agreement to which the Partner is a party with you. Moovea does not evaluate the services rendered nor the Equipment offered for rent by the Partners, and therefore Moovea cannot provide you with any warranty as to the quality of such services and Equipment. You are solely responsible for verifying the quality of the services and Equipment made available to you by a Partner. For this reason:

a) Moovea excludes, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any direct or incidental liability arising out of your use of the rental services of a Partner; and

b) in the event of a fault or of the non-performance of any contractual obligation by a Partner, you waive the benefit of solidarity between Moovea and such Partner arising from Article 1525 of the Civil Code of Quebec, so that Moovea shall in no event be obliged to compensate you for any loss resulting from the action or fault of such Partner. Your sole remedy for the fault or breach of contract of a Partner shall be against the Partner only.

3. USER ACCOUNT AND PERSONAL INFORMATION

3.1 PERSONAL INFORMATION

In order to benefit from the Services offered by Moovea, you will be required to provide certain personal information to Moovea, as more fully described in Moovea’s Privacy Policy. You agree to provide Moovea with such proof of identity as we may reasonably require in order to validate your identity.

3.2 USER ACCOUNT AND LIABILITY

Moovea may offer you from time to time the option to create a user account on the Platform, which shall be secured by a password that you must protect at all times (the "User Account").

You commit to ensuring that all information provided is complete and truthful. You accept full responsibility for any errors or inaccuracies in the information you are required to provide Moovea with respect to the use of the Platform.

3.4 USER CONTENT

The User is solely responsible for any information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages or other materials the User posts to the Platform from time to time through their User Account or otherwise (the "User Content"). Moovea may occasionally review any User Content contributed by a User, but does not guarantee its accuracy, completeness or quality in any way.

3.5 CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT

You may terminate your User Account on the Platform at any time by following the steps set forth to that end in the User Account. Notwithstanding the termination of your User Account, you shall nevertheless remain bound by any provision hereof which, either by way of its terms, in order to give it meaningful effect or because of its nature, must survive the termination of your User Account. If your User Account is terminated, you agree that Moovea may (but is not obligated to) retain your User Content.

You understand and agree that a Partner may apply surcharges for Users under this age, at Partner’s (or its insurance provider's) discretion and based on said Partner’s (or its insurance provider's) assessment of the statistical risk associated with drivers of a certain age. You also agree and understand that your Reservation pricing may change if you change your Criteria after making the Reservation (for example, if you add options or exceed the included mileage).

4.2.3 Partner terms and conditions. By placing a Reservation with a Partner, you agree and acknowledge that such Partner’s reservation terms, rental terms and privacy policy shall apply to your use of the Partner’s rental services (the "Partner Terms"). Moovea will make these Partner Terms available to you on the Platform before you make a Reservation. You agree to review the Partner Terms before making a Reservation. The Partner Terms may, for example, contain restrictions or conditions on your use of the rental services of this Partner. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that you comply with these conditions and restrictions. If you fail to review these Partner Terms, you waive the right to claim that the provisions contained therein are invalid because they were not expressly made known to you at the time of your Reservation. You further agree to abide by these Partner Terms when using a Partner’s rental services. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of these Terms of Use and the Partner Terms, the provisions of these Terms of Use shall prevail. We invite you to contact Moovea's customer service department with any questions related to this subsection 4.2.3, using the contact information provided at section 11 hereof.

4.2.4 Modifying your reservation. Some Partners may allow you to modify your Reservation through the Platform or directly with that Partner. If you modify any of the Criteria of your Reservation, you understand and agree that such modification may change the pricing originally provided for the Reservation. Any modification to your Reservation is subject to the availability of the Partners. The conditions of modification of a Reservation will be indicated on the Platform when you make your Reservation.

4.2.5 Cancelling your reservation. You acknowledge and agree that a fee (up to the full amount of your Reservation) may be payable in the event that you cancel your Reservation. When applicable, these fees will be indicated on the Platform when you make your Reservation. You agree to pay any cancellation fee that may be required of you.

4.2.6 Equipment for information purposes only.The Equipment displayed on the Platform is presented for information purposes only and its sole use is to identify the main characteristics of the Equipment that is the object of your Reservation. Moovea cannot guarantee that the Equipment displayed on the Platform in connection with your Reservation will be available at the time you choose for its pick-up at the Partner’s branch. It is possible that the Equipment displayed at the time of your Reservation will be replaced by an equivalent with the same characteristics

4.2.7 Unavailability. In the event that the reserved Equipment (or an equivalent with the same characteristics) is not available at the Partner’s branch, you may, among other things, (i) modify your Reservation at the branch (additional fees may apply depending on the new Equipment chosen) or (ii) cancel your Reservation without charge or penalty. You acknowledge and agree that Partners are solely responsible for honouring any Reservation you make on the Platform. For this reason, Moovea waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any direct or incidental liability arising out of a problem with a Reservation resulting from the act or the fault of a Partner.

4.2.8 Reservations during peak periods. During peak periods, any Reservation made on the Platform must be confirmed by the relevant Partner before it becomes valid. You understand and agree that a Reservation made during peak periods shall not be binding on the Partner until it is confirmed by the latter.
