Providing Harley-Davidson with your personal information is always your choice. You may withdraw your consent at any time; such withdrawal shall not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on consent before its withdrawal. When you request products and/or services from Harley-Davidson, utilize Harley-Davidson’s services, or register with any of Harley-Davidson’s websites, Harley-Davidson asks that you provide information that enables Harley-Davidson to respond to your request and/or provide you with Harley-Davidson’s products or services.

Keeping Information Accurate / Access and Correction:
Having accurate information about you enables Harley-Davidson to give you better service. You can help Harley-Davidson keep personal information up to date by keeping Harley-Davidson informed of any changes, such as a change of address, telephone number or any other circumstances.
Where required by law, you may have the right to access, verify and amend the information Harley-Davidson has about you after Harley-Davidson has received your written request and authenticated your identity.
In some situations, Harley-Davidson may not be able to provide access to certain personal information as the right to access personal information is not absolute. If Harley-Davidson does not provide you with the requested information, Harley-Davidson will notify you in writing and explain Harley-Davidson’s reason(s) for not fulfilling your request.
Despite Harley-Davidson’s efforts, errors sometimes do occur. If you identify any personal information that is out-of-date, incorrect or incomplete, let Harley-Davidson know and Harley-Davidson will make the corrections promptly and use every reasonable effort to communicate these changes to other parties who may have inadvertently received incorrect or out-of-date personal information from Harley-Davidson.
Retention and Destruction of Personal Information:
The amount of time Harley-Davidson will retain personal information varies, depending on the services Harley-Davidson has provided, the nature of the personal information that Harley-Davidson holds, as well as the basis and purposes for which it was collected or processed. Harley-Davidson retains personal information for such period which will be the minimum period necessary for Harley-Davidson to maintain sufficient information, so that Harley-Davidson may respond to any issues that arise later or as is required by law.
Legal requirements, however, may require us to retain some or all the personal information we hold for a period that is longer than that for which we might otherwise hold.
When personal information is no longer required by Harley-Davidson or by law, Harley-Davidson will either convert it into an aggregated non-identifying form or Harley-Davidson will appropriately destroy or erase the personal information in a manner that is in accordance with Harley-Davidson’s current policies and procedures.
You control the choice of receiving marketing information or marketing calls. For instructions on opting out, please see the section entitled, “How do I Opt-In or Opt-Out of Promotional Communications?"

We may also need to contact you via telephone, email (in accordance with applicable laws) or postal mail or notification via the mobile app with questions or information regarding your order or subscription. Opt outs are entity specific. Opting out with respect to one entity is not automatically effective with respect to the others.
