Last Updated: June 27, 2026
Effective Date: June 27, 2026
Part 1: Terms of Service
1. ABOUT INTAKECORE
1.1 Company Description
Intakecore ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") operates a white-glove client intake and lead qualification software platform ("Platform") accessible at intakecore.ca and related subdomains. Intakecore is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) technology provider only.
1.2 What Intakecore Is NOT
Intakecore is explicitly not:
- An insurance company, insurer, underwriter, or reinsurer
- A licensed insurance broker or agent in any jurisdiction
- A law firm or provider of legal services or legal advice
- A medical provider, clinic, or healthcare professional
- A financial advisor or investment dealer
- A mortgage broker or lender
- A recruiter, staffing agency, or employment agency
- A regulated professional services firm of any kind
1.3 No Professional Services
The Platform is a technology tool that facilitates the collection and organization of client intake information on behalf of our clients. Nothing on the Platform or in any communication from Intakecore constitutes professional advice of any kind, including but not limited to legal, insurance, medical, financial, or immigration advice.
2. DEFINITIONS
- "Client" means any business, professional, or organization that subscribes to and uses the Platform.
- "End User" means any individual whose information is collected through a Client's intake form powered by the Platform.
- "Platform" means the Intakecore SaaS software, website, APIs, and related services.
- "Intake Form" means the customizable data collection forms configured and deployed by Clients using the Platform.
- "Lead Qualification Logic" means any scoring, rating, weighting, routing, prioritization, or qualification rules configured by a Client within the Platform, including but not limited to rules that assign scores or ratings to End Users based on their responses to Intake Form questions.
- "Client Data" means all data submitted to or processed through the Platform by or on behalf of a Client or End User.
- "Subscription" means a paid or trial plan granting access to the Platform.
3. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you are using the Platform on behalf of a business, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that business. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Platform.
4. ELIGIBILITY
4.1 You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Platform.
4.2 Clients using the Platform for regulated professional services (including insurance brokerages, law firms, medical clinics, immigration consultants, financial advisors, and mortgage brokers) represent and warrant that:
- They hold all required licenses, registrations, and permits required by applicable law in their jurisdiction(s) of operation;
- Their use of the Platform complies with all applicable regulatory requirements governing their profession;
- They will not use the Platform in any manner that would cause Intakecore to be deemed a regulated entity in their industry.
5. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES — INTAKE FORM OWNERSHIP AND LEAD QUALIFICATION LOGIC
5.1 Client Owns and Controls Intake Logic
Clients are solely responsible for the design, content, questions, workflows, and logic contained within their Intake Forms. Intakecore provides the technology infrastructure; the Client determines what information is collected from End Users and how that information is processed, scored, or routed.
5.2 Client Owns and Controls Lead Qualification and Rating Logic
Any lead scoring, qualification ratings, response-based weighting, prioritization rules, or other Lead Qualification Logic configured within the Platform is entirely designed, configured, directed, and owned by the Client. Intakecore implements such logic solely as a technical service provider acting on the Client's explicit instructions.
For greater certainty:
- If a Client instructs Intakecore to configure logic such that a particular answer to an Intake Form question results in a lower lead score or rating (e.g., "if the End User answers 'No' to Question X, assign a low rating"), that logic is the Client's business decision and the Client's sole responsibility.
- Intakecore does not independently determine, recommend, or endorse any qualification criteria, scoring thresholds, or rating outcomes.
- Intakecore is not responsible or liable for any consequences arising from the Lead Qualification Logic configured by a Client, including but not limited to: claims by End Users that they were improperly rated, scored, or prioritized; regulatory investigations related to qualification criteria; or any discriminatory or unlawful scoring practices implemented by the Client.
5.3 White-Glove Implementation Services
Where Intakecore provides white-glove implementation services and builds or configures Intake Forms or Lead Qualification Logic on behalf of a Client, such services are performed based entirely on the Client's instructions and specifications. The Client remains solely responsible for the content, logic, and compliance of the resulting configuration. Intakecore's role in such circumstances is that of a technical contractor executing the Client's directions, not an independent decision-maker.
5.4 Regulatory Compliance is Client's Responsibility
Clients in regulated industries — including but not limited to insurance brokerages, law firms, healthcare providers, immigration consultants, financial advisors, mortgage brokers, and accounting firms — are solely responsible for ensuring that:
- Their Intake Forms and Lead Qualification Logic comply with all applicable regulations governing their profession and jurisdiction;
- The collection and processing of personal information through the Platform complies with applicable privacy laws;
- Any disclosures, consents, or notices required by their regulator are included in their Intake Forms;
- Their use of intake data and lead ratings complies with client confidentiality obligations and anti-discrimination laws;
- Their lead qualification criteria do not violate applicable human rights legislation or prohibited grounds of discrimination.
5.5 No Unauthorized Practice
Intakecore does not practice law, provide insurance services, provide medical advice, or provide any other regulated professional service. Clients must not represent to End Users that intake forms or lead ratings powered by Intakecore constitute professional advice or regulated services from Intakecore.
5.6 Client Indemnification for Intake Content and Qualification Logic
Clients shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Intakecore from any claim, loss, liability, or expense arising from:
- The content of their Intake Forms;
- Their Lead Qualification Logic and any scoring, rating, or routing decisions made thereunder;
- Their professional regulatory obligations;
- Their relationship with End Users;
- Any claim by an End User or regulator relating to how an End User was scored, rated, or prioritized within the Platform.
6. PROHIBITED USES
You may not use the Platform to:
- Collect information in violation of applicable privacy laws;
- Implement Lead Qualification Logic that violates applicable human rights legislation or constitutes unlawful discrimination on prohibited grounds;
- Impersonate a regulated professional or entity without proper licensing;
- Collect sensitive personal information (including health, financial, or immigration information) without appropriate consents and safeguards required by law;
- Engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or misleading practices toward End Users;
- Violate any applicable law, regulation, or professional code of conduct;
- Reverse engineer, copy, resell, or sublicense the Platform without authorization;
- Interfere with the security or integrity of the Platform.
7. INSURANCE INDUSTRY — SPECIFIC DISCLAIMER
Intakecore is not licensed as an insurance broker, agent, managing general agent (MGA), third-party administrator (TPA), or insurer in any province, territory, or state.
Clients who are licensed insurance brokers or agents use the Platform solely as a technology tool to organize their own client intake workflows. The Platform does not:
- Bind, quote, underwrite, or place insurance coverage;
- Provide insurance advice or recommendations;
- Act as an intermediary between insurers and insureds;
- Perform any function requiring an insurance license.
Any lead qualification or rating logic applied to insurance intake forms is configured entirely by the Client and reflects the Client's own business and underwriting judgment, not that of Intakecore. Intakecore bears no responsibility for how the Client's qualification criteria align with insurance regulatory requirements.
Clients in the insurance industry represent that their use of the Platform complies with all applicable insurance regulatory requirements, including those set by provincial regulators (RIBO, AMF, ICBC, IBC, etc.) and state regulators in the United States.
8. LEGAL INDUSTRY — SPECIFIC DISCLAIMER
Intakecore is not a law firm and does not provide legal services or legal advice.
Clients who are law firms or legal professionals use the Platform to manage their own client intake processes. The Platform does not create a solicitor-client or attorney-client relationship between Intakecore and any End User. Clients are responsible for ensuring their intake practices comply with applicable Law Society rules, rules of professional conduct, and client confidentiality obligations. Any lead qualification logic applied to legal intake forms is the Client's own business decision and does not reflect legal advice or professional judgment from Intakecore.
9. HEALTHCARE AND MEDICAL — SPECIFIC DISCLAIMER
Clients who are healthcare providers use the Platform to manage administrative intake workflows only. Intakecore is not a healthcare provider and does not provide medical advice. Clients are responsible for ensuring that collection of personal health information through the Platform complies with applicable legislation, including provincial health privacy laws (such as Ontario's Personal Health Information Protection Act, Alberta's Health Information Act, and applicable US state and federal health privacy laws). Lead qualification logic applied to healthcare intake forms is configured by the Client and is not a clinical determination made by Intakecore.
10. IMMIGRATION — SPECIFIC DISCLAIMER
Intakecore is not a licensed immigration consultant or lawyer. Clients who provide immigration services are solely responsible for compliance with applicable immigration regulations, including requirements of the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC) and applicable provincial and federal law. Lead qualification or eligibility screening logic is the Client's own responsibility and does not constitute immigration advice from Intakecore.
11. SUBSCRIPTION, FEES, AND PAYMENT
11.1 Access to the Platform requires a paid Subscription. Fees are set out in the applicable order form or pricing page.
11.2 A one-time setup fee may apply upon onboarding.
11.3 Subscription fees are billed in advance on the applicable billing cycle. All fees are non-refundable except as required by law.

12. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
12.1 Intakecore retains all intellectual property rights in the Platform, including software, design, trademarks, and documentation.

Each party agrees to keep confidential the other party's non-public information disclosed in connection with these Terms, and not to disclose it to third parties without consent, except as required by law.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

INTAKECORE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY ARISING FROM LEAD QUALIFICATION LOGIC, SCORING, RATINGS, OR ROUTING DECISIONS CONFIGURED BY CLIENTS. THE CLIENT IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL QUALIFICATION CRITERIA AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES.
14.3 No Liability for Professional Regulatory Matters
INTAKECORE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY ARISING FROM A CLIENT'S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THEIR PROFESSIONAL REGULATORY OBLIGATIONS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INSURANCE LICENSING REQUIREMENTS, LAW SOCIETY RULES, HEALTHCARE PRIVACY LAWS, OR ANY OTHER PROFESSIONAL REGULATORY FRAMEWORK.
14.4 Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INTAKECORE'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO ANY CLIENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY THAT CLIENT IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. INTAKECORE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
14.5 Quebec Exception
Nothing in these Terms limits liability in a manner prohibited by Quebec consumer protection law or any other mandatory provision of applicable law.
15. INDEMNIFICATION
