General Information

The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and dessin and govern your use of the Service. The TOS and the relationship between you and dessin shall be governed by the laws of the British Virgin Islands without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and dessin agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the United States of America. The failure of dessin to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and all other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The section titles in the TOS are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Termination of Use

You agree that dessin, in its sole discretion, may terminate all or part of your user access, registration, password, account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service, and remove and discard any Content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if dessin believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of the TOS. dessin may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Service under any provision of this TOS may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that dessin may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service.

Privacy Policy

dessin respects and protects your privacy. We will never disclose information about you to a third party without first receiving your permission. In light of the above and because of the complex and constantly changing nature of our technology and business, dessin does not guarantee error-free performance under this privacy policy. dessin shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential or punitive damages relating to this privacy policy.

This policy addresses the following topics regarding your personal information.

1. What personally identifiable information we collect.
2. How we use your information.
3. What cookies, transparent GIFs, and log files are and how we use them.
4. What organization collects your personal information.
5. With whom we may share your information.
6. What choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of your information.

This policy is subject to change so please check back frequently. Questions regarding the policy should be submitted via http://www.edessin.com/contact.php

1. What personally identifiable information we collect.

dessin collects information from you on assorted web forms including: quote request, partner application, contact, trial, makeover request, and feedback. In order to respond to your inquiries and requests, we need to collect basic information from you such as your contact information and the details of your request.

2. How we use your information.

We primarily use the information that you may enter on our site to respond to your inquiry or request. We may also respectfully use your information (e.g. email address) to contact you about improvements in our service, special offers, and special announcements.

3. What cookies, transparent GIFs, and log files are and how we use them.

Most popular Web sites, including dessin, interact with your Web browser to store small text files, or "cookies", on your computer's hard drive.

Some sites use pixels, or transparent GIF files, to help manage their online advertising. We may use either or both.

Like most popular Web sites, we do use our servers to create log files of site data. This includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks. We use the data in log files to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movements in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

4. What organization collects your personal information.

When you visit our site, unless you are specifically informed otherwise, we are the only ones collecting information about you. We may pay 3rd party servers to process the data on our behalf.

We may from time to time run promotions that may be sponsored or cosponsored by other companies. Some or all of the information collected on our site during a promotion may be shared with the sponsor. If that is the case, you will be notified prior to providing your information. Based on that notification, you may, of course, elect to decline participation in the promotion.

As a service to you, we may provide links to other sites from our site. Those sites are not operated by dessin and are therefore not under our control. Their privacy practices may or may not be consistent with our practices.

5. With whom we may share your information.

We do not currently have plans to "rent" your name or to provide any companies opportunities to advertise to you through us. If that should ever change, we would only do so if we had your permission. You will always have the option to "OPT OUT".

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process served on our Web site.

In the event that we go through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of our assets, your personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. You will be notified by a prominent notice on our Web site and an email prior to a change of ownership or control of your personal information.

6. What choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of your information.

You may always choose not to provide us with your personal information. You may also "OPT OUT" of special programs using your personal information. However, without your personal information, we may not always be able to provide you with complete service or any service at all.

This policy may change from time to time, and any changes are binding on you. We encourage you to visit this site from time to time to review the most updated policies.
