Any unauthorized or misleading usage of Lynk-Gel®, including but not limited to unauthorized sublicensing or reproductions, may result in immediate termination of your rights, revocation of “Good Standing” status, and potential legal action.

  1. Quality Control Rules
    To ensure consistent product performance and quality, Customers agree to use Lynk-Gel® only with officially approved illumino products, including adhesives, removers, and lash extensions. Combining Lynk-Gel® with any third-party products not expressly approved in writing by illumino is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Noncompliance will result in the forfeiture of all warranties, certification status, and any further legal or financial remedies permissible under Nevada law.

  2. Penalties for Misuse
    Any misuse of the Lynk-Gel® trademark, including reverse engineering, creating derivatives, or disseminating unauthorized copies of the product or technique, is expressly forbidden.

    Participation in an illumino training program related to Lynk-Gel® confers a limited, non-transferable right to use the Lynk-Gel® brand and accompanying materials solely in compliance with illumino’s certification and this Agreement. Failure to uphold these obligations, or falling out of “Good Standing,” immediately revokes any previously granted rights to use or market Lynk-Gel®.

  5. Licensing for Public Demonstrations or Marketing

In the event that a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Customer will: (a) furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required to be disclosed, and (b) upon illumino’s request, will use its best efforts to obtain assurances from the authority compelling disclosure that confidential treatment be accorded to such information. Any such compelled disclosure shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to continue to otherwise maintain the confidentiality of such information.
