obtain information regarding one of our products or services
(e.g., rentals), enroll as a member in our communities (e.g.,

a natural person who can be identified, directly or indirectly,
from that information by reference to an identification number

and expiration date, password, preferred E-Commerce dealer,
purchase history, IP address, what Web sites visitors come from,

online activities that are directly linked to them. This information
may be merged with other information Harley-Davidson/Buell already
knows, such as whether you are the owner of a Harley-Davidson®
or Buell® motorcycle, whether you are a member of H.O.G.® or
B.R.A.G.®, whether you hold a Harley-Davidson® Chrome Visa®
card, etc., or information available from other sources such
as credit card verification and credit services and dealers.
HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION
Harley-Davidson/Buell will collect and use your Customer Identifiable Information to render
services to you; respond to your inquiries; market and sell to you products, programs, and
services offered by Harley-Davidson/Buell; and market and sell to you Harley-Davidson/Buell
products, programs, and services offered by its dealers, authorized rental operators, and
business alliance companies. In addition, Harley-Davidson/Buell may use Customer Identifiable
Information to conduct other legitimate business activities, such as protecting the security
of the Web sites and of Harley-Davidson/Buell's networks, guarding against potential liability,
engaging in debt collection, responding to a court order or subpoena, preventing fraud, complying
with law, and complying with a legally permitted inquiry by a government agency or regulator.
If necessary for the purposes mentioned above, Harley-Davidson/Buell may transfer your Customer
Identifiable Information to third parties and these third parties may use your Customer Identifiable
Information for such purposes. These third parties may include Harley-Davidson/Buell's dealers, advisors,
rental operators, companies providing products and services (such as IT systems suppliers) to
Harley-Davidson/Buell and, to the extent required by law, regulatory authorities (including tax authorities).
Harley-Davidson/Buell also may transfer your Customer Identifiable Information to its business
alliance companies that have entered into a contract with Harley-Davidson/Buell to offer, endorse,
or sponsor a Harley-Davidson/Buell product, program, or service.
If the version of this Web site you are using allows you to purchase products or services online,
your Customer Identifiable Information will be used to complete any transactions you wish to enter into,
including credit card processing and credit checks. Your name, address, E-mail address, telephone number
and, where applicable, credit card information and purchase details, will be shared with the participating
Harley-Davidson and/or Buell dealer who will fulfill your order. Please note that Harley-Davidson and Buell
dealers are independent from Harley-Davidson/Buell. However, the participating dealers have agreed not to
use Customer Identifiable Information submitted in connection with an order made through this Web site for
any purpose other than the purposes identified above.
Harley-Davidson/Buell is in the process of contractually requiring other third parties to whom we transfer
your Customer Identifiable Information to use your Customer Identifiable Information only within the
context of their agreement(s) with Harley-Davidson/Buell, and only for the purposes stated above, including
direct marketing of products or services to you. At present, however, not all third parties are so
contractually bound, and some third parties may use your Customer Identifiable Information for other purposes.
In addition, some third parties that have received your Customer Identifiable Information may not be required
to allow you to opt out of their use of such information for direct marketing.
In addition, in the event that all or any part of the Harley-Davidson/Buell corporate family is sold to a
third party, we may transfer Customer Identifiable information to the third party buyer as part of the
assets of the business.
We may share anonymous aggregated demographic and general trend information with any third party we choose.
You may request, at any time, that the Customer Identifiable Information you provide on the Registration page or

harley-davidson.com to third parties for marketing purposes, by unchecking the box in the My Personal Info page

Changing the selection in the My Personal Info page of the My Profile section will not remove your Customer
Identifiable Information from other Harley-Davidson/Buell programs in which you may have enrolled through
Harley-Davidson/Buell's Web sites or from other lists maintained by Harley-Davidson/Buell. Nor will it remove
your Customer Identifiable Information from lists maintained by Harley-Davidson and Buell dealers
(including dealers who received your Customer Identifiable Information to fulfill your online purchases),
rental operators, business alliance companies, and persons and companies providing services to
Harley-Davidson/Buell. You should contact these third parties directly if you have any questions or

You can use this link to request that no more emails be sent to you from buell.com.
Making such a request on your profile page (if available) or using the unsubscribe feature found in

other Harley-Davidson/Buell programs in which you may have enrolled through Harley-Davidson/Buell's
Web sites or from other lists maintained by Harley-Davidson/Buell. Nor will it remove your Customer
Identifiable Information from lists maintained by Harley-Davidson and Buell dealers (including dealers
who received your Customer Identifiable Information to fulfill your online purchases), rental operators,

OUR USE OF "COOKIES" AND OTHER COMPUTER INFORMATION
As is the case with many sites, when you visit our site and complete a registration form, we will place a "cookie" on your computer, which helps us identify you more quickly when you return. Cookies are small pieces of information stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive and are used in Web site system administration to keep track of movement of an individual from one screen to another. We will use "cookies," alone or in conjunction with other devices described below, to understand how you arrived at our Web sites, to determine which pages or information you find most useful or interesting at our own Web sites, and to make choices about how to deliver the most relevant marketing messages about our products to you. This information may also be used by our staff to detect and resolve Web site problems and to assist with customer support concerns.
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to prevent acceptance of a "cookie" offered by a Web site. If you experience any problems using our Web site, please contact Harley-Davidson, Inc., 3700 West Juneau Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53208 USA, Attention: E-Commerce Dept., or e-mail us at hdonline@harley-davidson.com.
We also use transparent GIF files, or pixel tags, and similar technologies to help manage online advertising. These files, which are provided by our third party ad management partners, enable our ad management partners to recognize a unique cookie on your Web browser. This, in turn, allows our ad management partners to provide us with data concerning visitors' activities on our site, track and measure the performance of our marketing efforts and assist in the delivery of relevant marketing messages. These technologies are placed by us, or by another third party who works with our ad management partners to provide these services. With both cookies and pixel tag technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address. For more information about our ad management partners and the advertising networks they use, including information about how to opt out of these technologies, click here, and look for information on Atlas DMT and Doubleclick.
OUR APPROACH TO DATA SECURITY
To prevent unauthorized access to your Customer Identifiable Information, we have put in place
physical, electronic, and managerial procedures (including Secured Socket Layer technology for
credit card transactions). We will use various electronic means to keep transaction information
transferred over the Web as secure as generally available transaction technology reasonably permits.
OUR COMMITMENT TO CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
We recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of children. For this reason, we do
not collect or maintain information from children we know are under 13 except as permitted by law.

LINKS
To improve your Web experience, and to offer you products in which you might be interested, we
provide links to business alliance companies, Harley-Davidson and Buell dealers, and other third-party
sites. When you click on one of these links, you will be transferred out of our Web site and connected

not control these sites (even if an affiliation exists between our Web sites and a third party site),

CHANGES IN PRACTICES
This Privacy Policy may change from time to time, and any changes will be posted here. If we
materially change our privacy practices to permit us to share more information about you than
we stated we would share, or to permit disclosures of information about you to additional types
of parties, we will take reasonable measures to inform you of these changes in advance. You will
then have a reasonable opportunity to change your opt-out preference.
