Information shared with our business partners
To improve the products and services offered, we may use business partners to help us design and operate our Website or provide other services to support the site. For example, we may hire a company to run certain Website applications, help us fulfill orders, process payment information, or help us analyze our data.

Information shared with our affiliates

For example, we may share information with law enforcement to reduce the risk of fraud or if someone uses or attempts to use our site for illegal reasons. If there is a sale or merger of all or substantially all of the company, division or business unit that operates this site, we may also transfer the information we have collected in connection with such sale or merger.
Legal Basis for Data Processing
Haworth only processes personal data when there is a fair and legal basis for its collection and use, for instance, when the collection of personal data is necessary to enter into a contract, to meet our legitimate interests, to comply with legal obligations or when we have your consent.
The information we collect when we enter into a contract or business relationship with you is necessary to comply with our contractual obligations to you. Without your personal data, we would not be able to provide our goods and services to you. In some cases, we are required to collect personal information to comply with our legal obligations under U.S., EU or other applicable law, as described elsewhere in this notice. For example, some tax, labor, and anti-fraud laws require organizations to collect certain information that may vary depending on local regulations.
When required by applicable law, we obtain your consent prior to sending any direct marketing communications. In any case you can opt-out of these communications any time and free of charge.
When we process your personal data for our legitimate interests, we conduct a balancing test in order to ensure that data subject rights are not overridden. It is in our legitimate interest to process your data to provide our products and services, to improve our products and services, facilitate administrative functions, maintain system security, and conduct product development and research activities, among other purposes.
Our Policy Towards Children’s Personal Data
While our site is available for all to visit, you must be at least 16 years old to register on our Website, to purchase products or participate in any of our contests. We will not knowingly collect information about children under the age of 16. If you are under the age of 16, please do not register as a user and do not submit your personal data. If you are a parent who believes that we have collected information about a child under age 16, please contact privacy@haworth.com with your child's name and address, and we will be happy to delete the information we have about your child from our records and, to the extent applicable, provide information in accordance with local laws (e.g. U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act).
Retention Periods
Haworth retains personal data for only the length of time required to fulfill the purpose for which the data was collected. We do not keep personal data for longer than is necessary, and what is necessary depends on specific circumstances such as regulations requiring us to retain information for a certain period of time and limitation periods of legal claims.
We use the information that we collect about you only for the purposes for which it is collected and consistent with this Policy. We keep information provided to us for as long as we believe necessary for our business purposes and as permitted by applicable law.
The retention period depends on the context in which we process data such as data from use of our Website, or customer data after service with customer has ended. The retention periods are established considering Haworth’s legitimate business purposes and according to local regulations.
Disclosures to Third Parties and Processing Activities
At times, Haworth engages third party agents, service providers, or other vendors to help accomplish our business objectives. There are other circumstances where we are required by law to disclose personal data to third parties such as public bodies or judicial authorities.
We engage with third party contractors, service providers and other vendors for some of the following services: Microsoft Dynamics for our Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Adobe for digital transformation, and SAP for dealer orders. We may also give you the option to have your information shared with vendors whose goods we carry so that they can send you coupons or other promotional information in which you are interested.
If the engagement involves the transmission of personal data, Haworth requires the service provider to treat that data consistent with this Policy. A contract to protect the personal data will be executed before any data is disclosed.
In certain circumstances, Haworth may be required to disclose personal data in the context of any sale or transaction involving all or a portion of the business, or when required by law, to protect our legal rights, or in an emergency situation where the security of an individual is endangered. In addition, your personal data may be disclosed in response to inquiries or requests from government authorities or to respond to judicial process in the United States.
Security
Haworth is committed to the security, confidentiality and integrity principle. We take commercially reasonable precautions to keep your information secure against unauthorized access and use and we periodically review our security measures. We are committed to processing your data in a secure manner and have put in place specific technical and organizational measures to prevent the personal data we hold from being accidentally or deliberately compromised.
We use commercially reasonable means to protect the integrity of our Website and limit access to your personal data. For example, if you purchase any products on our site, we will use a Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection to process your payment information and we will store your personal data on firewall-protected servers. We limit access to your personal data to those who have a legitimate need to use the information. If you have set up a user name and profile, you should be sure to protect your user ID and password to prevent others from being able to access the site in your name. We cannot provide absolute assurances against, and will not be liable for, breaches of confidentiality due to system failures or unauthorized access by third parties.
We also conduct information risk assessments and we include both physical security and IT security in our overall data security approach. We are diligent in selecting vendors or agents that process personal data on our behalf so that they also ensure appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the data.
Haworth makes reasonable efforts to notify individuals and regulatory authorities, as required by law, if we have reason to believe that personal data or payment card information has been stolen, disclosed, altered or infringed by an unauthorized person. We create and maintain a breach notification and reporting protocol.
We also endorse the concept of privacy by design which is an approach to projects that promotes privacy and data protection compliance from the outset. This means considering the privacy and security implications for any new project or process throughout its lifecycle.
Internet protocol
Haworth uses commercially available security certificates for its Website where required. The certificates encrypt all information that is gathered except information not collected through our Website such as information provided by e-mail.
Order security
Orders that are placed on the Haworth Store site are from a secure order form using TLS and requires users to provide contact, billing, and payment information. This information is transmitted to a payment provider to authorize the purchase. We do not reveal the payment information during order confirmation. We require each user's phone number to protect Haworth and the user from possible fraud. In order to protect against unauthorized access to your account, it is recommended that you close the browser when you have finished using the site.

a. Rights for California Consumers
If you are a California resident, you may have certain rights. Effective as of January 1, 2020, you may request that we:
- Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or disclosed about you in the last twelve months; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we shared personal information.
- Provide access to and/or a copy of certain information we hold about you.
- Delete certain information we have about you.
We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a request, which may include, at a minimum, depending on the sensitivity of the information you are requesting and the type of request you are making, verifying your name, email address, and physical address.
You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such requests or a power of attorney. We may also follow up with you to verify your identity before processing the authorized agent’s request.
If you are a California resident and would like to exercise your three legal rights listed above ((1) right to know the categories of information, sources, purposes, and third parties we share with; (2) right to know the specific information we have about you; (3) right to delete that information), complete and submit this form[BAF1] . This form will be the most efficient way to exercise your rights. You may also call us at 1-866-477-0018.
You may have the right to receive information about the financial incentives that we offer to you (if any). You also have the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising certain of your rights. Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. We need certain types of information so that we can provide our products and services to you. If you ask us to delete it, you may no longer be able to access or use our Website or purchase our products without providing the information again.
Effective January 1, 2020, California residents may opt out of the “sale” of their personal information. Under the CCPA, sale is defined such that it may include allowing third parties to receive certain information, such as cookies, IP address, and/or browsing behavior, to deliver targeted advertising on our Website or other websites. We “sell” certain of your information to third parties to provide you with offers and promotions and opportunities that may be of interest to you.
We may provide the following categories of personal information to third parties for these purposes:
- For online targeted advertising purposes: demographic and statistical information, device information and identifiers, browser and usage data.
- If you would like to opt out of our use of your information for such purposes that are considered a “sale” under California law, you may opt out of advertising cookies as explained in our Cookie Policy and here:

c. California Shine the Light
California law permits users who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, a list of the third parties to whom we have disclosed their ‘personal information’ (if any, and as defined under applicable California law) for their direct marketing purposes in the prior calendar year, as well as the type of personal information disclosed to those parties. If you are a California resident and would like to request this information, please submit your request in an email to privacy@haworth.com.
d. Our California Do Not Track Notice
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a setting in your web browser that informs websites that you do not want to be tracked. You can enable or disable DNT through the Preferences or Settings options of your web browser. Because DNT technology is not yet uniform, we do not yet support DNT signals of web browsers. We are optimistic to have a solution for this in the near future.
