Terms of Service & Privacy Policy

Terms of Service and Rules
Thank you for using MOCA!
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement (“Agreement”) between you and MOCA Auto Body Estimator Inc. (hereinafter “MOCA”) governing your access to and use of the MOCA website, including any subdomains thereof, and any other websites through which MOCA makes the MOCA Services available (collectively, “Site”), our mobile, tablet and other smart device applications, and application program interfaces (collectively, “Application”) and all associated services (collectively, “Services”). The Site, Application and Services together are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “MOCA Platform”. When these Terms mention “MOCA,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” it refers to MOCA Auto Body Estimator Inc. with which you are contracting.
Your access to and use of the MOCA Platform are conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with this Agreement and MOCA’s Privacy Policy. By accessing or using the MOCA Platform you agree to be bound by this Agreement and MOCA’s Privacy Policy.
1. Basic Terms
The MOCA Platform is an online marketplace that connects registered users (“Users”) with certain third parties who offer auto body repair services (“Partner Auto Body Shops” or “Body Shops”). The services Body Shops offer are “Repair Services”. You may also visit and view MOCA Platform without registration.
MOCA provides Users with repair estimates, which are given by Partner Auto Body shops. The repair estimates are calculated based on limited information given by Users such as photos and vehicle information. Thus, the estimates may change when Body Shops inspect your vehicle in person at their own sites. The estimates are not the final quotes and the final quotes can only be given by the Body Shops at their own sites. The estimates should only be used to help you decide which Body Shops to visit and consult about your vehicle issues. MOCA is not responsible for accuracy of the estimates.
As the provider of the MOCA Platform, MOCA does not own a physical auto body repair shop. MOCA does not directly provide, control, manage, offer, deliver, or supply Repair Services. Partner Auto Body Shops alone are responsible for their estimates, quotes, and Repair Services. When Users decide to use a Repair Service from a certain Body Shop, they are entering into a contract directly with each other. MOCA is not and does not become a party to or other participant in any contractual relationship between Users and Body Shops. MOCA is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any User.
MOCA is not responsible for the result of Repair Services given by Body Shops. MOCA encourages Users to carefully review the terms and conditions of Body Shops before using their Repair Services. While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes, MOCA has no control over Repair Services and does not guarantee satisfaction of Repair Services. You should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding which Body Shop to request to repair your vehicle.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into legally binding contracts to access and use the MOCA Platform or register an MOCA Account. By accessing or using the MOCA Platform you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older and have the legal capacity and authority to enter into a contract. You must register an account (“MOCA Account”) to access and use certain features of the MOCA Platform, such as requesting estimate inquiries.
3. Service Fees
Currently we deliver the MOCA Platform for free including the estimate-inquiry service. However, in the future, MOCA may charge fees to Body Shops ("Body Shop Fees") and/or Users ("User Fees") (collectively, "Service Fees") in consideration for the use of the MOCA Platform. If so, MOCA will confirm with you before charging you.
Users who decide to repair their cars at certain Body Shops will have to pay for the repair services at the Body Shops. MOCA does not guarantee the result of the repair. If Users are not satisfied with the result, they will have to deal with the Body Shops directly although MOCA may facilitate with Body Shops to resolve the issues.
4. Passwords
You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the MOCA Platform and for any activities or actions under your password. We encourage you to use complicated passwords with your account. MOCA cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above.

1.1 Information from Your Submission
We collect information you share with us when you use the MOCA Platform including account information (like your name, email address, date of birth, address, and phone number), profile information (like your vehicle and auto insurance), other authentication-related information, payment information, communications with MOCA and Partner Body Shops, address book contact information, and other information, which you choose to provide us when you fill in a form, conduct a search, or use other features of the MOCA Platform.
1.2 Information about Your Usage
When you use the MOCA Platform, we collect information about the services you use and how you use them. This includes, but not limited to, usage information, location information, log data, transaction information, and cookies along with other similar technologies.
Cookies: As many websites do, MOCA uses "cookie" technology to obtain additional website usage data and to improve our Services. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your devices such as your phone or your computer. MOCA may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with our Services, to track aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the MOCA Platform, and to customize and improve the MOCA Platform. Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, and can be activated again the next time you use the MOCA Platform. MOCA uses Google Analytics to generate statistical and other related information about website use through cookies. Google’s privacy policy can be viewed at: www.google.com/policies/privacy/
Most Internet browsers automatically allow cookies. You can stop allowing cookies by changing your browser’s setting. However, some features of the MOCA Platform may not function properly if you disable cookies. We also use other technologies with similar functionality to cookies, such as tracking URLs, pixels, mobile identifiers, and web beacons to collect Log Data.
1.3 Information from Third Parties
MOCA may obtain information that others provide about you when they use the MOCA Platform, or collect information from other sources and combine that with information we collect through the MOCA Platform to the extent permitted by applicable law. For example, if you link, connect, or login to your MOCA Account with a third party service (e.g., Facebook, WeChat, Google+), the third party service may send us information such as your registration and profile information from that service. This information varies and is controlled by that service or as authorized by you via your privacy settings at that service. MOCA also uses a variety of third party services such as Google Analytics, wikis and blogs to improve our Services. These third party services may collect your usage information and other related information. MOCA may use this information to create a better service for you.
2. How We Use Collected Information
MOCA uses, stores, and processes information about you to provide, understand, improve, and develop the MOCA Platform, and to create and maintain a trusted and safer environment. We may also use the information to provide, personalize, measure, and improve our advertising and marketing. We may also share aggregated information (information about our users that we combine together so that it no longer identifies or references an individual user) and non-personally identifiable information for industry and market analysis, demographic profiling, marketing and advertising, and other business purposes with our partners and advertising agencies.
3. Third Party Partners & Integrations
The MOCA Platform may contain links to third party websites or services, such as third party integrations, co-branded services, or third party-branded services (“Third Party Partners”). MOCA does not own or control these Third Party Partners. When you interact with them, you may be providing information directly to the Third Party Partner, MOCA, or both. These Third Party Partners will have their own rules about the collection, use, and disclosure of information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of the other websites you visit.

5. Security
We are continuously implementing and updating administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or alteration. However, the Internet is not a 100% secure environment so we cannot guarantee the security of the transmission or storage of your information.
6. Operating Globally
When you use the MOCA Platform, you authorize us to transfer, store, and process your information in Canada and possibly other countries. Laws in these countries may differ from the laws applicable to the place where you live. By using the MOCA Platform, you consent to transferring your data to these countries.
