Terms of Service for LinkScope Sourcing 38
These terms cover use of the LinkScope Sourcing 38 website and the procurement form. They describe an independent sourcing desk for business buyers who want factory quotations compared. They are not a supply contract for connectors, seals, or related equipment.
What a submission is
A form submission is a request that the desk review your connector family, quantity, destination, timing, and any optional budget or supplier preference. It does not create an order, reserve a housing, or lock a unit rate. Plants that later receive the brief speak for their own offers. You decide whether a reply is acceptable.
What the site does not confirm
Pages may discuss ingress protection, plating, mating cycles, and document requests. Those passages are buyer questions. They are not test results from this desk, not a statement that a named plant was audited, and not a statement that a housing mates with your harness. Stock, lead time, freight, duties, and compliance remain with the supplier who writes them into a quotation.
Your brief
You are responsible for the accuracy of the specification you send, including contact count, seal, plating, wire gauge, and test expectations. If a drawing cannot be attached, the form tells you to describe it and send the file later. Do not include passwords, payment card numbers, or personal data that the comparison does not need.
Benefit notice
Any on-site notice about sourcing support describes eligibility for qualified business buyers and says that eligibility is confirmed after product, quantity, destination, and sourcing requirements are reviewed. That notice is not a standing price cut on connectors and it is not a statement that a factory will match a target budget.
Acceptable use
Do not use the form to impersonate another company, to scrape the site in a way that degrades it, or to submit content you have no right to share. The desk may decline a brief that lacks a business purpose or that asks the desk to pretend it is the manufacturer.
Liability boundary
To the extent the law allows, the desk is not liable for installation results, seal performance, code approval, or a factory failure to ship. Connector selection and acceptance testing remain with you and your suppliers. These terms do not limit liability that cannot legally be limited.
Changes
The desk may update these terms by posting a revised page. Continued use of the form after the posting means you read the revised terms for new submissions. Earlier submissions stay under the terms that applied when you sent them.
Questions about a live brief should use the RFQ form so the connector fields stay attached to the message.
