So Chic Home Design
(the "Company") is committed to protecting
the privacy of its users. This Privacy Policy
("Privacy Policy") is designed to help you
understand what information we gather, how we
use it, what we do to protect it, and to assist
you in making informed decisions when using our
Service. Unless otherwise indicated below, this
Privacy Policy applies to any website that
references this Privacy Policy, any Company
website, as well as any data the Company may
collect across partnered and unaffiliated sites.
For purposes of this
Agreement, "Service" refers to the Company's
service which can be accessed via our website at
https://www.sochichomedesigns.com/
or through our mobile application.
The terms "we," "us," and "our" refer to the
Company. "You" refers to you, as a user of
Service.
I. CONSENT
By accessing our Service, you accept
our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use, and you
consent to our collection, storage, use and
disclosure of your personal information as
described in this Privacy Policy. In addition,
by using our Service, or services across
partnered and unaffiliated sites, you are
accepting the policies and practices described
in this Privacy Policy. Each time you visit our
website, or use the Service, and any time you
voluntarily provide us with information, you
agree that you are consenting to our collection,
use and disclosure of the information that you
provide, and you are consenting to receive
emails or otherwise be contacted, as described
in this Privacy Policy. Whether or not you
register or create any kind of account with us,
this Privacy Policy applies to all users of the
website and the Service.
II. INFORMATION
WE COLLECT
We may collect both "Non-Personal
Information" and "Personal Information" about
you. "Non-Personal Information" includes
information that cannot be used to personally
identify you, such as anonymous usage data,
general demographic information we may collect,
referring/exit pages and URLs, platform types,
preferences you submit and preferences that are
generated based on the data you submit and
number of clicks. "Personal Information"
includes information that can be used to
personally identify you, such as your name,
address and email address.
In addition, we may
also track information provided to us by your
browser or by our mobile application when you
view or use the Service, such as the website you
came from (known as the "referring URL"), the
type of browser you use, the device from which
you connected to the Service, the time and date
of access, and other information that does not
personally identify you. We use this information
for, among other things, the operation of the
Service, to maintain the quality of the Service,
to provide general statistics regarding use of
the Service and for other business purposes. We
track this information using cookies, or small
text files which include an anonymous unique
identifier. Cookies are sent to a user's browser
from our servers and are stored on the user's
computer hard drive. Sending a cookie to a
user's browser enables us to collect
Non-Personal Information about that user and
keep a record of the user's preferences when
utilizing our services, both on an individual
and aggregate basis. The Company may use both
persistent and session cookies; persistent
cookies remain on your computer after you close
your session and until you delete them, while
session cookies expire when you close your
browser. Persistent cookies can be removed by
following your Internet browser help file
directions. If you choose to disable cookies,
some areas of the Service may not work properly.
III. HOW WE
USE AND SHARE INFORMATION
Personal Information:
In general, we do not sell, trade, rent or
otherwise share your Personal Information with
third parties without your consent. We may share
your Personal Information with vendors and other
third-party providers who are performing
services for the Company. In general, the
vendors and third-party providers used by us
will only collect, use and disclose your
information to the extent necessary to allow
them to perform the services they provide for
the Company. For example, when you provide us
with personal information to complete a
transaction, verify your credit card, place an
order, arrange for a delivery, or return a
purchase, you consent to our collecting and
using such personal information for that
specific purpose, including by transmitting such
information to our vendors (and their service
providers) performing these services for the
Company.
However, certain
third-party service providers, such as payment
processors, have their own privacy policies in
respect of the information that we are required
to provide to them in order to use their
services. For these third-party service
providers, we recommend that you read their
privacy policies so that you can understand the
manner in which your Personal Information will
be handled by such providers.
In addition, we may disclose your Personal
Information if required to do so by law or if
you violate our Terms of Use.
Non-Personal
Information:
In general, we use Non-Personal Information
to help us improve the Service and customize the
user experience. We also aggregate Non-Personal
Information in order to track trends and analyze
use patterns of the Service. This Privacy Policy
does not limit in any way our use or disclosure
of Non-Personal Information and we reserve the
right to use and disclose such Non-Personal
Information to our partners, advertisers and
other third parties at our sole discretion.
IV. HOW WE
PROTECT INFORMATION
We implement reasonable precautions
and follow industry best practices in order to
protect your Personal Information and ensure
that such Personal Information is not accessed,
disclosed, altered or destroyed. However, these
measures do not guarantee that your information
will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or
destroyed by breach of such precautions. By
using our Service, you acknowledge that you
understand and agree to assume these risks.

provide links to or compatibility with other
websites or applications. However, we are not
responsible for the privacy practices employed
by those websites or the information or content
they contain. This Privacy Policy applies solely

apply to your use of a third-party website
accessed by selecting a link via our Service. To
the extent that you access or use the Service

circumstances we disclose it. Any such
modifications become effective upon your

five (5) days after we first post the changes on
the website or otherwise provide you with notice
of such modifications. It is your sole

among the assets transferred. You acknowledge
and consent that such transfers may occur and
are permitted by this Privacy Policy, and that
any acquirer of our assets may continue to
process your Personal Information as set forth
in this Privacy Policy. If our information
practices change at any time in the future, we
will post the policy changes here so that you
may opt out of the new information practices. We
suggest that you check this Privacy Policy
periodically if you are concerned about how your
