Privacy Policy

Home > Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy of Dash Square describes the types of information we may collect when you visit our website and its mobile applications (collectively the “Sites”). We understand how important it is to keep your personal information confidential. We value the information you provide us and want you to be confident that we are committed to protecting your privacy. Our commitment to protecting your privacy is outlined in the policies below.

This Privacy Policy addresses the nature, purpose, use, and sharing of any information collected via our Sites. The information you provide on our Sites will be used only as outlined in this Privacy Policy. Except as outlined herein, the submission and collection of personally identifiable information (defined below) are strictly voluntary. By using or visiting any Site, you acknowledge your agreement with this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use related to that site or application. If you do not want to grant permission to use your information as outlined in this Privacy Policy, please do not provide it and elect not to visit our Sites. However, not providing certain information may result in our inability to provide you with the information or services you desire.

Information Collected

The two types of information we collect are personally identifiable information and website use information.

The website's use of information is anonymous information that cannot be used to identify you. We use this information to track navigation through our Sites, which pages are viewed most often, what other websites are visited, and similar data. We also use the information to develop and deliver marketing strategy, to notify you of ads, promotions and to offer products and services to you.

Personally, identifiable information is sensitive information that can be used to identify you. Personally, identifiable information includes, among other information, your full name, e-mail address, physical mailing address, and telephone number. Some of the features on our online Sites require that you provide us information about yourself such as when you elect to purchase a product from us, register as a member for an account or choose to fill out a form on our online Sites. You can review and update any personally identifiable information you have voluntarily elected to provide to us prior to submitting the information.

We will never request your password, user name, or other personally identifiable information through e-mail. This practice, called “phishing,” is oftentimes a scam designed to steal your personal information. If you receive an e-mail message that looks like it is from us asking for your personal information, please do not respond.

Use of Personally Identifiable Information You Choose to Provide

If you choose to provide us with personally identifiable information, we will use that information to enhance your experience in the following ways:

  • Complete your request to sign up to receive information via e-mail on any of our online Sites.
  • Complete your request to register as a member of any of our online Sites you select.
  • Complete your request to register to use any of our online tools you select at any one of our online Sites.
  • Customize your shopping experience.
  • Providing us with your personally identifiable information, it allows Dash Square and its subsidiaries, affiliates, sister and parent corporations, and independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores to:
  • Notify you of advertisements and promotions related to Dash Square retail furniture store using the Internet, e-mail, and mail sent via the U.S. Post Office.
  • Communicate great values and featured items to you.
  • Comply with valid legal procedures, requirements, regulations, and statutes.
  • Share your personally identifiable information with third-party vendors but only to the extent required to help us perform any of the aforementioned functions.

Children

Our online Sites are general audience sites. We do not permit anyone who tells us they are under the age of 13 to register online with us. We also do not collect information from anyone that tells us they are under the age of 13. 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 or other web filtering technology to supervise children’s access to the Internet.

Automatically Collected Information

We save information based on your interaction with our online Sites. This allows us to process your inquiries more efficiently, notify you of advertisements, promotions and to offer products and services to you, and ultimately, provide you with enhanced customer service. This information includes, but is not limited to, your Internet Protocol address (the address automatically assigned to your computer every time you establish a connection to the Internet), the name of any referring websites, as well as your navigation and activity on our websites. By tracking this type of information, we may be able to modify our content and product displays to enhance your experience while visiting our online Sites.

This information is only used to help us make our Sites more useful to you and to notify you of ads, promotions and to offer products and services to you. Except for authorized law enforcement investigations, no attempts are made to identify individual users or their usage habits. Raw data logs are retained temporarily as required for security and site management purposes only.

Information Collected for Tracking Purposes (Cookies)

Like many websites, our Sites do not currently respond to “do not track signals” or other mechanisms that consumers may utilize on their web browsing device to limit the collection of certain information about a consumer’s activities over time and across various websites or online services. As with most websites, we use “cookies” to obtain information when your web browser accesses our online Site. “Cookies” are small amounts of data that are stored on your computer and find their way to your browser via a web server. They flag information about your activity on our online Sites. This information helps us to improve our Sites and to make them friendlier and easier to use. We are then able to “recognize” you and personalize your experience with our Sites. You may “turn off” cookies by following steps outlined in the “Help” portion of the toolbar on most browsers; however, cookies allow you to take advantage of some of our Sites’ best features, so we recommend that you leave them turned on.

We may use trusted third-party service providers to serve advertisements on our behalf using the Internet. This form of marketing, called “retargeting,” enhances the web surfing experience and allows us to better notify you of our advertisements and promotions, and offer products and services to you. These companies may use technologies to measure the effectiveness of advertisements and use information about your visits to our online Sites and other websites so that we can provide a better experience for you. The third-party service providers may collect anonymous information about your visits to our online Sites and your interaction with our online Sites. This anonymous information is collected through the use of a pixel tag and/or cookie. No personally identifiable information is collected or used in this process. Our third-party service providers do not learn the name, telephone number, postal address, e-mail address, or any other personally identifiable information about you in connection with the aforementioned retargeting process.

Sharing Information

We may share aggregated general information collected by our Sites with our subsidiaries, affiliates, sister or parent corporations independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores or with our third-party service providers. Aggregated data does not contain any personally identifiable information that could be used to contact or identify you. We only share personally identifiable information in one or more of the following limited circumstances:

  • We have your consent.
  • We may provide such information to respected third-party service providers to the extent necessary for them to assist and support us as we attempt to better provide enhanced products and services to you and to complete your requests to receive information from us via email, use our online tools or register as a member on any of our online Sites. When this is done, it is subject to agreements or other specific direction given to the service provider that requires them to process such information only in accordance with our instructions, in compliance with this Privacy Policy, and with appropriate confidentiality and security measures in place. We have no control over, and bear no responsibility for the privacy policies and/or content of any websites or advertisers linked to or on any of our Sites or cookies these websites may deposit on your computer.
  • We may provide such information to our subsidiaries, affiliates, sister or parent corporations or with independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores who may use this information to notify you of advertisement, promotions and to offer products and services to you using the Internet, e-mail and mail sent via the U.S. Post Office.
  • When required by law or where we have a good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a criminal investigation, a court order, or legal process served on our company in direct relation to you. We may also share your personally identifiable information if we believe it is necessary in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of the Terms of Use of our Sites and services, or as otherwise required by law.
  • If you have established an account with us, we may share the information submitted under your account among any or all of our subsidiaries, affiliates, sister or parent corporations, independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores, or with our trusted third party service providers working on our behalf in order to provide you with a seamless experience and to improve the quality of our services. We will not disclose your account information to other people or non-affiliated companies, except in limited circumstances described in this Privacy Policy or with your consent.
  • In the event that another company acquires all or substantially all of the assets related to our business, we reserve the right to include any or all stored personally identifiable information among the assets transferred to the acquiring company.
  • We may store and process personally identifiable information collected on our Site in the United States or any other country in which we maintain facilities. By using our Sites and services, you consent to the transfer of your information among these facilities, including those located outside your country.

We currently DO NOT share your personally identifiable information with any other companies or organizations that would present you with offers or promotions that are not directly related to Dash Square or our subsidiary, affiliate, sister or parent companies, or one of the independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores.

Security

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure, or destruction of the data you provide to us. Our servers are protected by firewalls and are physically located in secure data facilities to further increase security. While no computer or facility is 100% safe from outside attacks, we believe that the steps we have taken to protect your personally identifiable information dramatically reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate for the type of data involved.

Opt-Out of Services

At any time you may opt-out of our services. You are free to delete all cookies on your browser, or have your browser notify you when a cookie is set—simply check your browser settings. By deleting your cookies you will disable our ability, or that of our third-party partners, to deliver advertisements that are targeted to your interests. You will have to clear your cookies each time you visit our online Sites to ensure that you are not receiving retargeted advertisements.

You may also receive e-mail 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 e-mail messages you have received from us. Please note that if you wish to opt-out of receiving e-mails from independently owned and operated Dash Square retail furniture stores you will need to contact them directly to communicate your contact preferences.

Additionally, we may display interest-based ads to you on third-party networking service platforms, such as Facebook or Twitter, through tools offered by third-party service. These tools allow Dash Square to personalize our advertising based on your previous shopping experiences with us. Dash Square does not share any of your personal information, including contact details and shopping history, directly with the third-party networking service. The tool that we use enables Dash Square to convert your email address to a unique number that is later matched to a unique number generated by the third-party networking service from its user information database. You may opt-out of receiving interest-based ads from Dash Square by contacting us with the subject line “Social Network Opt-Out”.
