 Title: Terms of Use

Please read these Terms of Use ("Terms") carefully before using www.proquote.net (the "Website") or trialling the product.

In these Terms, "we" means Proquote Limited, of Tabley Court, Over Tabley, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 0PL which is the owner of this Website and the Proquote trademark and brand, and "you" means the person wishing to use the Proquote service on a trial basis.

By clicking "I accept", you agree to be bound by these Terms, which contain provisions which apply when you obtain a free trial of the Proquote service ("Trial Service"). These Terms do not apply to use of the Proquote service as a subscriber, as this is subject to separate terms and conditions which will be made available to you when you subscribe for the Proquote service.

1  PURPOSE OF THE WEBSITE
1.1  The Website is set up to give information to potential Proquote customers on the services offered by Proquote. However, the Website does not constitute an offer to sell such services. If you are interested in subscribing for the Proquote service, please contact us by emailing us at sales@proquote.net and we will be pleased to discuss with you how best to meet your needs.
1.2  All reports, tables, data, figures, illustrations and similar information ("Information") are included on the Website for the sole purpose of illustrating what Proquote can offer to its clients and you should never rely on or use the Information for any other purpose.
