Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide

We may collect your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, company name, title, biography, credentials, licenses, certifications, specialties, services, project types, service areas, website, social links, professional affiliations, location information, communications, survey responses, support requests, newsletter preferences, and materials submitted for a directory listing, membership, partnership, event, or application.

Profile and application materials may include headshots, logos, portfolio images, project descriptions, references, and other professional content.

When you purchase a paid service, Stripe processes payment-card information directly. DezinerLux generally receives transaction, customer, subscription, billing-status, and limited payment-method information needed to administer the service, but does not receive or store your full payment-card number.

Information Collected Automatically

We and our service providers may automatically collect IP address, browser and device information, operating system, pages viewed, links selected, referring and exit pages, search activity, visit dates and times, approximate location derived from IP address, cookie identifiers, and similar technical information.

Information From Other Sources

We may receive information from public sources, professional organizations, event organizers, social platforms, business partners, analytics providers, advertising providers, and other third parties. We may use public professional information to research, verify, update, or supplement directory profiles.

2. Public Directory Profiles and User Content

DezinerLux is a professional directory and industry resource. Information submitted or approved for a professional, company, vendor, organization, event, project, or other directory profile may be displayed publicly, including names, photographs, biographies, business contact information, credentials, specialties, services, locations, links, and other approved profile content.

Public profile content may be viewed, indexed, copied, or shared by search engines and third parties. Removing content from DezinerLux may not immediately remove copies stored or indexed elsewhere.

We may edit submitted content for spelling, formatting, clarity, consistency, accuracy, search visibility, or compliance with our standards. Inclusion in the directory is not guaranteed, and verification may be requested before publishing or updating a profile.

3. How We Use Personal Information

• Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Services.
• Review, verify, create, publish, and manage profiles and applications.
• Administer memberships, subscriptions, billing, and customer support.
• Respond to inquiries, requests, applications, and support needs.
• Communicate about profiles, submissions, events, partnerships, products, services, and updates.
• Send newsletters and promotional communications when permitted by law.
• Conduct analytics, research, reporting, and performance measurement.

4. How We Share Personal Information

Service Providers

We may share information with providers that help host and operate the website, manage forms and databases, send communications, process payments, provide analytics, support marketing, store files, prevent fraud, or provide customer service. This includes Stripe for payment and subscription processing.

Public Listings

Information intended for a directory profile, article, event listing, project feature, or other public content may be published through the Services and made available to the public.

Business and Promotional Partners

We may work with event organizers, industry organizations, sponsors, affiliates, or other partners. We disclose personal information to them when you direct us to do so, consent, or when otherwise permitted by law. We may also share aggregated or de-identified information.

Legal, Safety, and Business Transfers

We may disclose information to comply with law or legal process, protect rights and safety, prevent fraud or security threats, enforce agreements, or as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar transaction.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember preferences, understand traffic, improve performance, and support analytics or advertising. Browser settings may allow you to limit cookies, although some features may be affected.

6. Analytics, Advertising, and Embedded Content

Analytics and advertising providers may collect information about activity over time and across websites or services. The Services may also include embedded videos, maps, social content, forms, scheduling tools, or other third-party features governed by those providers' own privacy practices.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, maintain accurate directory records, administer subscriptions and transactions, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, comply with legal obligations, and protect legitimate business interests.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, database, or transmission method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Choices and Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, opt-out, or review of certain privacy decisions. You may also request an update to or removal of a DezinerLux directory profile.

We may need to verify your identity and authority before completing a request. We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

10. Email and Marketing Choices

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link in the message. We may still send non-promotional communications relating to an application, listing, transaction, subscription, security issue, request, or ongoing business relationship.

11. Children's Privacy

The Services are intended for a general business and professional audience and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

12. External Links

The Services may link to third-party websites, platforms, profiles, products, or services. DezinerLux does not control and is not responsible for those third parties' privacy, security, or content practices.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Policy periodically to reflect changes in our Services, technology, business practices, or legal requirements. The revised Policy will be posted with a new Last Updated date.
