Privacy Violations

 

Privacy and the protection of personal information are fundamental values for Quote It. Do not expose private or confidential information about yourself or another person through public content, except for authorized information deliberately published through designated Platform features.

 

Authorized public information

 

Service Providers may publish authorized business profile information, map location, work examples, Deals, Promotions, ratings, reviews and public badges through the designated features. Authorized public business contact details and social links may be included where the Platform permits them. These permissions do not authorize disclosure of a client’s private contact information or another person’s private information.

 

Only the ID Verified badge is public. The identity document submitted through the verification process is private and must not be posted in profiles, deals, promotions or public messages. Do not publish identity-document images, document numbers, passwords, security codes or private payment information. Remove unnecessary sensitive details from certificates intended for public display.

 

Obtain permission for identifiable clients and other people in work photos. Contact information obtained through Deals, Directory messages or Contact Now may be used only for the relevant inquiry or job; do not resell it or use it for unrelated marketing. Report suspected privacy misuse to support@quoteit.ca.

 

 

We remove content that shares, offers or solicits personally identifiable information or other private information that could lead to physical or financial harm, including financial, residential, and medical information, as well as private information obtained from illegal sources. We also provide people ways to report content that they believe to be in violation of their privacy rights.
