Last updated: August 10, 2026
These Terms of Use (hereinafter the « Terms ») govern the terms and conditions of use of the site accessible at contant.ca (hereinafter the « Site ») published by Groupe Contant (hereinafter the « Company »). Anyone browsing the Site is a User (hereinafter the « User »).

Use of the Site is subject to compliance with these Terms. Every User acknowledges accepting the Terms, without reservation, solely by using the Site.
The Terms may be modified by the Company at any time to reflect changes to the Site and to applicable regulations. The new version of the Terms will be made available on the Site.

2. Intellectual Property
2.1. The Site and each of its component elements — including but not limited to text, trademarks, logos, sounds, music, layouts, visuals, icons and, more generally, all visual or audio elements (hereinafter the « Intellectual Property Elements ») — are protected by intellectual property rights held by the Company or by one or more third parties who have assigned the right of use to the Company.
Some Intellectual Property Elements may also belong to third parties who have granted the Company a right of use.
Except as authorized by law, any reproduction, representation, modification, distribution, adaptation, translation, and/or total or partial transformation of the Intellectual Property Elements, their integration into other elements, or their transfer to another website, without the prior written, express authorization of the Company or of the relevant third-party rights holders, is strictly prohibited.

5.1.6. The User agrees to respect the integrity of the Site. The User is prohibited from hindering or forcing the Site's operation, from fraudulently modifying, altering, or deleting content accessible via the Site, and from fraudulently introducing data onto the Site.
5.2. Company Commitment
5.2.1. The Company makes every effort to keep the Site accessible. Unavailability of the Site, for any reason, does not entitle the User to any compensation.
5.2.2. The Company cannot be held liable in the event of force majeure, network and/or server malfunction, outages, or maintenance interventions necessary for the Site's proper operation, or any other event beyond its control. The Company cannot be held responsible for any material or immaterial damage arising, in any way, from connecting to the Site.
5.2.3. Despite the Company's vigilance, the Site's content may contain errors or inaccuracies. The Company undertakes to correct them as quickly as possible, but the Site User must carry out any necessary verifications and remains solely responsible for the use they make of the information available.
5.3. Prices Shown on the Site
The “list price” is a product's selling price as determined by a manufacturer or supplier. The Site regularly reviews its catalog price list by comparing it against prices for items offered on the Site and on other sites. Some products display the words “old price,” followed by a value, determined from the most recent price history of that product on the Site.
The Site cannot confirm the price of an item until you order it. Despite every effort, some items on the Site may display an incorrect price. If the exact price of an item is higher than the displayed price, the Site may, at its discretion, contact you for instructions prior to shipment, or cancel your order and notify you. Other merchants may have different practices with respect to items displaying an incorrect price.
Your credit card is charged at the moment your order is completed at checkout — payment is processed securely by our payment processor, Stripe — not when your order ships or is handed over.
All prices are subject to change. The Site reserves the right to adjust prices and product offerings for reasons including, but not limited to, changing market conditions, product discontinuation, product unavailability, manufacturer price changes, and advertising errors. All orders are subject to product availability; the Site therefore cannot guarantee it will be able to fulfill every order.
6. Modification of the Site's Content
Any aspect of the Site may be modified, supplemented, deleted, or updated at any time by the Company.
7. Contact

8. Miscellaneous
If any clause hereof is declared void, it will be deemed unwritten, without resulting in the nullity of the other clauses of these Terms.
The Company's failure to exercise any right arising from these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right.
9. Applicable Law and Competent Courts
These Terms are governed by Canadian law and, more specifically, by the laws of the province of Quebec, which determines, on a case-by-case basis, the applicable law. In the absence of any mandatory provision to the contrary, or where a choice exists as to the applicable law, Canadian law will apply.
Any dispute that may arise regarding the validity, interpretation, acceptance, and performance of these Terms, regardless of the place of consultation, subscription, or payment, will be the subject of an attempted amicable settlement that the parties undertake to pursue. Failing settlement within three (3) months, the courts of Montreal will have sole jurisdiction, even in the event of a warranty claim, multiple defendants, or emergency or protective proceedings.
