Does Harley-Davidson share my personal information? 

We may share your personal information within Harley-Davidson throughout the world - including with Harley-Davidson Inc., H-D U.S.A. LLC, Harley-Davidson Motor Company Group LLC, Harley-Davidson Motor Company Inc., Harley-Davidson Motor Company Operations Inc., and Harley-Davidson Dealer Systems Inc., all of which are based in the USA - to assist us in providing personalized experiences offering products or services that may be of interest to you, and to process online orders and other requests. We also collect information from and share information with our independent dealers and Harley-Davidson Financial Services. We may also share personal information with non-affiliated companies that provide services on our behalf. We take steps to ensure that these companies are contractually obligated to keep the personal information that we provide to them confidential and to use such information only as we permit.

We may also share personal information with non-affiliated companies that market Harley-Davidson branded products and services, or in connection with your financial obligations concerning a Harley-Davidson product or service. These companies have their own privacy practices and notices.

If we sell all or part of our business or assets, or are otherwise involved in a merger or business transfer, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy, we may transfer your personal information to one or more third parties as part of that transaction.

There may be instances where the law requires we disclose your personal information to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process, to respond to a request for cooperation from a law enforcement or another government agency, to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against any legal claims, or when we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or respond to suspected breaches of our website terms and conditions, illegal activities, fraud, or to protect the safety, rights, or property of you, us, or a third party.

The entities above may be established in countries other than your own which do not offer the same level of privacy protection. Harley-Davidson implements contractual guarantees to help protect your personal information in accordance with applicable laws.

How do I exercise my rights under applicable data protection laws?

You can review and change certain personal information or withdraw your consent, using one of our online sites (such as on harley-davidson.com). To access your information at a Harley-Davidson website, simply sign in to your account using your email address and password, and you will be able to edit certain personal information in your account profile.

You can also ask us for access to your personal information, to have it corrected or updated or, to the extent allowed by applicable law, deleted or made portable. Under certain circumstances you may oppose our use of your personal information. You can exercise those rights by contacting us as described in the section entitled "How do I contact Harley-Davidson?"

If you are not satisfied with the way that we are handling your request, you have the right to file a complaint with your local data protection authority.

How do I make choices about receiving promotional communications?

Harley-Davidson wants to communicate with you only if you want to hear from us. At the time when we collect your personal information you will generally be offered a choice, in compliance with local law, of whether you wish to receive promotional communications. If you prefer not to receive promotional information - such as information about special offers and marketing events - you can follow the process below:

How do I opt-in or opt-out of promotional communications?

If you change your mind about your current communication preferences with Harley-Davidson you can use the unsubscribe feature in a marketing email or log into your online profile account to change your preferences. You can also contact our customer service team via phone or mail as described in the section entitled "How do I contact Harley-Davidson, Inc?"

Motorcycle owners may not opt-out of receiving warranty and recall information. Please note that when you make a business transaction with us (for example, renew HOG or Museum membership or purchase a product online) we will continue to confirm your order status and shipment by email. We may also need to contact you via telephone, email or postal mail with questions or information regarding your order.

Opt outs are entity specific. Opting out with respect to one entity is not automatically effective with respect to the others. For example, opting out for Harley-Davidson Motor Company does not opt you out for Harley-Davidson Financial Services.

If you ask to no longer receive promotional communications from us, we will mark your information as "do not market" and take steps to honor your request.

Does this affect my communications with Harley-Davidson Dealers?

Harley-Davidson dealers are independent entities. This notice does not apply to them.  To change your preference with a Harley-Davidson dealer, please contact the dealer directly.
