1. Acceptance
Welcome to the AgConnexion website available online at www.AgConnexion.com (hereinafter the “Platform”). Through a set of features and/or a suite of applications, including the Portal and SmartFarm, the Platform enables the optimal management of Canadian producers and other customers’ business by bringing together in a single showcase several tools particularly facilitating the placement of orders to the Retailer and the access to various reports and analysis in order to facilitate the farm's production and marketing activities (collectively, the “User Services”) which are provided by any authorized Retailer which is a member or a partner of La Coop fédérée (hereinafter the “Retailer”), in accordance with the Master Services Agreement for the AgConnexion Platform entered into between La Coop fédérée and the Retailer in relation to the Platform. The use of the “we” below and in the Privacy Policy collectively refers to La Coop fédérée and the Retailer.
The Platform is operated by La Coop fédérée with the collaboration of its “Partners” which are subcontractors for the purposes of providing certain features offered on the Platform including Smart Farm.
When a web user (the “User”), accepts these General Conditions of Use (hereinafter the “GCU”) on behalf of a company or a legal entity having validly created a user account on the Platform it certifies that it possesses the required authority to bind that company or legal person and its subsidiaries and other affiliated companies to these GCU. The word “Parties” collectively refers to La Coop fédérée, the Retailer and the User.
By navigating on the Platform, the User acknowledges, accepts and agrees to comply with these GCU and the Partners’ terms of use available to any User having access to Smart Farm features, which will supersede where applicable, from the first use of the Platform and for any subsequent use. In addition, the User agrees not to make any use of the Platform in contravention of any applicable law, directive or regulation or that could harm us in any way, including our subsidiaries, affiliated companies, suppliers and Partners, as the case may be.
We reserve the right to amend these GCUs at any time and will notify Users when they first visit the Platform as of the effective date of the amendments. At each new visit on the Platform, the User is deemed to be aware of the amendments made to the GCUs, including the Privacy Policy and our Partners’ terms of use, mentioned above and to have accepted them through its use of the Platform. In addition, the User is deemed to have accepted the update/upgrade of the additional features with the purpose of enriching the User Services offered to it by the Retailer through the Platform, when it continues to use the Platform.
If, at any time, the User does not agree with these GCU, the Privacy Policy and/or the Partners’ terms of use, applicable, we ask it not to navigate on the Platform or to consult its content or to continue receiving the User Services offered on such Platform. We are not responsible for any damage, trouble or inconvenience resulting from the navigation on the Platform. If the User suffers any prejudice or disagrees in any way with the provisions of these GCU and/or the Privacy Policy, its sole remedy is to leave the Platform and/or to ask us in writing to delete its user account, if any.
The Retailer shall, at its discretion and to the full exoneration of La Coop fédérée, choose the rate payable by the User, if any, applicable and payable for the User Services, as well as the terms and conditions of payment binding it to the User. Subject to the foregoing, these GCU and all other legal notices posted on the Platform and their amendments constitute the entire existing agreement binding the Parties with respect to the use of the Platform and the content thereof conveyed, and revokes any agreement previously concluded by the User, as the case may be.
2. User Services
The User Services made available to the User through the Platform depend on the package chosen by the Retailer from La Coop fédérée, the latter acting as supplier of the Retailer, which may be updated at any time at the sole discretion of the Retailer, without requiring a notice to the User. La Coop fédérée can under no circumstances be held responsible for package changes and a reduction in User Services offered by the Retailer to Users.
La Coop fédérée reserves the right to access all user accounts to answer technical assistance requests, although the Retailer must act as first responder.
3. User License
We grant the User a non-exclusive, limited, revocable, non-transferable license for the Term only, but without territorial limitation: (i) to access and use the Platform and its features offered in accordance with these GCU and all applicable laws and regulations; and (ii) to upload and download content and Data (all of these rights being referred to as the “User License”), all subject to the terms and conditions hereof.
4. User Data
The use of the User Services involves the downloading and uploading of Data by the User which has created a user account.
For the purposes hereof, the term “Data” means all entries, information or documents uploaded to the Platform by anyone who acts for, or with the User’s account, concerning the User and/or Retailer and may include Confidential Information and/or personal information within the meaning of the applicable privacy legislation, including the Civil Code of Québec and the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector, in order to facilitate the provision of User Services.

The User:
- understands and agrees that the Data may be hosted outside Quebec and/or Canada;

We disclaim all liability arising from any Loss of any kind resulting from the breach of the User to its undertakings above, which the User accepts.
Subject to the foregoing, and in addition to what is provided in these GCU, we undertake to comply with the Privacy Policy, which is available at the following link (www.agconnexion.com/en/privacy-policy) which governs, in particular, the protection of personal information and any confidential data that the User submits or that we collect through the Platform, as applicable, for the purposes of creating the user account and providing the User Services by the Retailer offered by the various features of the Platform and/or for the purpose of registering the User for our newsletter and for calibration purposes.
5. Sharing Data With Third Parties
The producer may allow us to share its data with its accounting software to prevent it from manually entering its invoices into its accounting system, being understood that it is in control of this sharing and that the sharing for the purpose of information migration in its accounting software indicates its consent to the use that may be made by anyone who will use such accounting software following such authorized sharing, to our full exoneration.
The Platform facilitates the contact between the User and the Partners. As for the Data that the User chooses to share by itself with third parties through the Platform, the User understands that it has the choice, at its discretion, to share or refuse to share its Data with designated third parties. Without guaranteeing its accessibility, we may be able to make a feature accessible in order to allow the User to give the authorization to third parties to access its Data on the Platform. If the feature is accessible, then the User may indicate a particular category of Data that it wishes to share with this third party. The User can withdraw any such consent at any time. The User understands and agrees that the Partners to whom the User directly shares its Data with through the Platform have their own standards and/or policies regarding the use of the Data and that it is its responsibility to read, understand and accept the terms and conditions of use specific to the Partners, which apply in lieu of these GCU, before any use of the services they provide. The end User is solely responsible, to our full exoneration, for any Loss arising directly or indirectly from sharing its Data to a third party even if it has used the Platform to facilitate such sharing.
With respect to the Data we transmit to third parties to whom we provide access to AgConnexion's systems, we undertake to ensure that contracts with suppliers comply with the privacy, security and confidentiality provisions that are as stringent as the obligations incumbent on us herewith. Should a third party fails to comply with the requested minimum provisions, we will notify the User via a notice on the Platform (the “Security Notice”). In such a case, the User may choose to share its Data with us despite the Security Notice, in which case it also agrees that the third party may copy, use or distribute the Data to our full exoneration. The User agrees that we assume no responsibility or control over the activities of a third party with respect to which we have transmitted a Security Notice.
La Coop fédérée cannot incur any liability whatsoever due to the use of any content by a third party to which the Retailer or the end User has granted access.
7. Property Of Data
Data that is not anonymous belongs to the User who remains the sole owner at all times. The User has the right to share it, use it, request its download and deletion. The User understands and agrees that deletion and retrieval of Data that has been anonymized and integrated into the global aggregated data for analysis is not possible.
8. Reciprocal Confidentiality
Except as expressly permitted by these GCU and as permitted by law, we may not, like the User which is also bound for and on behalf of its employees, agents and other representatives, when acting as a party receiving Confidential Information (the “Receiving Party”), disclose or otherwise use for purposes other than the purposes provide herein the “Confidential Information” owned by the party communicating the Confidential Information (the “Disclosing Party”), it being understood that the Confidential Information covered by this reciprocal confidentiality obligation includes any information belonging to the Disclosing Party which is declared as such or which by its nature should be reasonably perceived as being confidential and in particular, but not limited to: business-related data (which may include the Data), information related to customers, suppliers, employees, formulas, recipes, processes, raw materials, equipment, business plans, financial information, hardware, software, operating systems, products, services, costs, sources of supply, strategic plans, advertising and marketing plans, sales, profits and prices, as well as information related to the Platform such as source codes, software and hardware, intellectual property, concepts, ideas, improvements, processes, know-how, specifications, samples, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets and trademark applications.

In the event that the confidentiality of this information is compromised, it is the responsibility of the User to ensure that the Retailer is contacted by email as soon as possible in order to avoid the fraudulent use of the User’s identity. We do not accept any liability for any Losses arising from the User's non-compliance with the security measures set forth in these GCU.
We strongly recommend the User to consult the LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND ABSENCE OF WARRANTIES section below to be well informed about the extent of its responsibilities regarding the use of the services available on the Platform.
11. Prohibited Uses
The usurpation of the name, username or password of others allowing access to the Platform by another user or its services, is prohibited.

In addition, some of the content available on the Platform is owned and/or provided by third parties, including Partners, as well as professionals (whether or not they are employed by the Retailer). They remain responsible for acts performed in the exercise of their provision of services and/or their profession. We do not perform any independent verification of any such content, including its veracity, validity, completeness, accuracy and reliability.
No Warranty from the Seller.

The User accepts and understands that we do not act, by virtue of the present, as products and/or services seller nor as agronomy advisory services supplier or in any other field of expertise, with the exception of technical support services in relation to the use of the Platform, and that no provision hereof can be interpreted as establishing the basis of any legal or conventional warranty from the seller, or as establishing a sale.

Security. We undertake to promptly notify the Users affected by any leakage or any breach of security of their Data which would be brought to our attention and to comply with all regulations and legislation in force concerning the measures to be taken in such case. We cannot guarantee the confidentiality of information transmitted over the Internet and we cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by its disclosure. The User therefore assumes full responsibility. In addition, under no circumstances can we be held responsible for acts of computer hacking or be blamed for any damage or Loss that this may cause to the User.
