Description of Service
Some of our Websites such as PimpMyZwinky are online services offered to enable people to save, share, search, and collect public HTML codes that they can use for their own purposes. These codes are often subsequently used to decorate personal web pages, or profile pages in social networking sites. Websites such as PimpMyZwinky do not host any content, apart from files necessary to provide the service itself. Websites such as PimpMyZwinky may display previews that simulate what a code may look like if and when a user decides to use the code on any personal web pages or profile pages in social networking sites.  These previews are samplings and are intended to have no purpose outside of showing what a code may look like if used on other websites by our users.

Membership Eligibility
Portions of the Websites are available to the general public, however certain portions, and certain features may not available to minors under the age of 13 or to any users suspended or removed from the system by DG for any reason. These certain features that are not available to minors under the age of 13 include, but are not limited to, the ability to post codes for public use, and the ability to maintain a profile which may contain personal information. Users may not have more than one active account. Additionally, users are prohibited from selling, trading, or otherwise transferring your Websites account to another party. If you do not qualify, you may not use the Websites.
