4. USES AND PURPOSES OF PERSONAL DATA
The purposes for which we collect and use your personal data may vary depending on the type of relationship you have with us, such as if you are one of our customers or a website user. We will seek your consent before using your personal data for any purposes not listed below.

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 credit card payments, or help us analyze our data. Unless otherwise indicated on our website, if we allow our business partners to access the personal data we collect, it will be for limited purposes and consistent with this privacy policy.
We may release your information without prior notice when we believe it is appropriate to prevent fraud; to comply with law or to cooperate with law enforcement activity or other governmental request; to respond to subpoenas, court orders or administrative agency requests for information; to enforce our policies; to protect the rights, property and safety of our business and of others; or when required or otherwise permitted by law. If there is a sale or merger of all or substantially all 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.
5. LEGAL BASES FOR DATA PROCESSING
PeopleSpace 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. or other applicable law, as described elsewhere in this notice. For example, some tax laws, labor, and anti-fraud laws require organizations to collect certain information that may vary depending on local regulations.
We conduct marketing activities based on your consent unless you have an existing business relationship with us. In any case you can opt-out of these communications any time and free of charge.
6. RETENTION PERIODS
PeopleSpace 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.
7. DISCLOSURES TO THIRD PARTIES AND PROCESSING ACTIVITIES
At times, PeopleSpace 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: NetSuite for our Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Adobe for digital customization, MailChimp for marketing email distributions and Lynx for Haworth manufacturer orders. If the engagement involves the transmission of personal data, PeopleSpace requires the service provider to treat that data consistent with this Policy. A contract to protect the personal data should be executed before any data is disclosed.
8. SECURITY
PeopleSpace 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 compromised.
9. YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
For California residents: PeopleSpace may share your personal data with affiliated third parties, some of which do not share the PeopleSpace name, for their direct marketing purposes. As this category of affiliate is considered an unaffiliated party under California law, you may request information about our disclosure of personal data to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
10. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We reserve the right to modify this Policy and related business practices at any time. We will duly inform you of any changes.
