If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or otherwise use the Site or the Content. The Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and us, totalhomeexpert.com, the operator of the Site (hereafter referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”). References in these Terms to “Site operator,” “we”, “us” and “our” include our affiliates (including, without limitation, EverQuote, Inc.), agents, successors and assigns. The Site is available only to, and may only be used by, individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Site is intended for and made available only to residents of the United States, age 18 or older.

1. Our Services
The Site acts as a portal to facilitate insurance agents, insurance companies, lead aggregators and other similar parties (each a “Provider”) to offer for sale and to sell, insurance and other products to potential consumers who have applied through the Site to receive insurance or other authorized quotations from a Provider (each, a “Prospect”), and all Prospects and potential Prospects that use the Site are collectively called the Site’s “Users” (and hereafter may be referred to as “you” or “your”).
We may, with a Prospect’s authorization, collect certain information (a “Lead”) about a Prospect and sell the Lead to a Provider. We are not responsible for the legality, safety or quality of the products offered for sale by a Provider, the accuracy or veracity of the representations regarding the products, the ability of Providers to sell the products or the ability of Prospects to pay for the products. For all purposes we are an independent contractor. With the exception of certain life insurance transactions, we do not issue insurance contracts or bind coverage. We are not responsible for, nor do we assume any financial or other liability whatsoever, for the conduct of any Prospect or Provider. With the exception of certain life insurance transactions, we do not endorse or recommend any Providers or insurance policies or other related products offered by such Providers.
With the exception of certain life insurance transactions, we do not provide any type of insurance, tax, financial, legal or any other advice. We do not guarantee that any Providers to whom we send a Prospect’s application will contact the Prospect or agree to provide the Prospect with the requested insurance coverage. If you would like personal advice or insurance specific policy recommendations, please consult with a qualified professional. Be advised that we do not offer or sell any insurance or other products shown on the Site.
2. Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
You agree to attempt in good faith to settle any dispute or claim that has or may arise between us, which arises out of or relates in any way to these Terms or your use of the Site or the Content, including, without limitation, any dispute or claim between you and a Provider (each, a “Claim”), by way of consultations between you and us, which consultations will be initiated upon written notice by any party to the other (the “Consultation Notice”).
The Consultation Notice must describe the nature and basis of the Claim and set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If such Claim cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days after the Consultation Notice is received, any party to the consultations may initiate an arbitration proceeding upon written notice to the other party in accordance with this Section 2. Any notice to us under this Section 2 should be addressed to: (“Notice Address”).
You agree to arbitrate all Claims between you and us, or any Provider, that cannot be amicably resolved in accordance with the foregoing paragraph. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:
- Claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of your relationship with us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory;
- Claims that could be alleged as class action Claims (and you agree to waive the right to participate in a class action in accordance with this Section 2).
This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing an individual action in small claims court if your claims qualify, and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. It also does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies.
