Other situations in which we may share your information
- We serve ads through websites, locations, platforms, and services operated by third parties. These ads are often targeted at people who have visited our sites or have similar traits.
- In business transactions, such as selling or buying stores, your information may be a transferred business asset. It may also be shared if our business is merged, sold, or reorganized.
- We may also disclose your personal information to enforce your contractual obligations to us or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Ashley, our customers, or others.
Sale of Information
We do not sell personal information of our customers as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. However, certain data privacy laws broadly define “sell” to include sharing information for something of value. Under that broad definition, we have “sold” personal information to third parties for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding 12 months. For more information, see the table above.
What about Sensitive Personal Information?
We generally don’t want to gather any sensitive information about you. We would prefer that you never share with us any sensitive information, including your social security number, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion, health or genetic characteristics, trade union membership, or criminal background.
How Long Do You Retain Data?
It depends. We store your personal information for as long as needed, or permitted, based on the reason why we obtained it (consistent with applicable law).
Children
Our sites are intended for a general audience and are not directed at children under thirteen (13) years of age. We do not permit anyone who tells us they are under the age of 13 to register or open an account with us. Children under the age of 13 should always ask their parents or guardians for permission before providing any contact information to anyone online. We urge parents and guardians to participate in their children’s online activities and use parental controls.
Cookies and Other Trackers
We use cookies and similar tracker methods when you visit our sites. These include essential, preference, analytics, and marketing trackers. You can manage these trackers in your browser settings or by using the Global Privacy Control. To opt out of specific services, you can visit their respective websites or use tools like NAI Mobile Choices or AppChoices.
Security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to your data. Our servers are protected by firewalls and are physically located in secure data facilities. While no system is 100% safe, we believe our steps dramatically reduce the likelihood of security problems to an appropriate level.
Email
You may receive email messages from us. If you no longer wish to receive these communications, let us know by following the opt out directions on any of the email messages you have received from us. Please note that for independently owned and operated Ashley retail furniture stores, you will need to contact them directly.
Notice Of Financial Incentives
We may offer various financial incentives (such as free shipping, discounts, and other special offers) to customers who provide personal information. The value of the personal information provided is reasonably related to the estimated value of the incentive. We reserve the right to withdraw or modify these incentives at any time.

You have the right to request what information we collect, use, disclose, and sell. You also have the right to request that we delete any personal information about you. To submit a request call 800-757-0064. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. We reserve the right to deny any request from an agent who does not submit proof of authorization.
