Never does contact information get shared with third parties outside the Kingsley Home Staging partner network. From time to time, the information gathered through this site will be used to notify you about Staged Home Staging services and services that we think will be of interest to you.
If you fill out a web form on this site, your information will be stored in our CRM system. Some elements of your past browsing on this site may be available to our staff to determine your interests, so we may more effectively engage with you and improve our site.

Information Usage – When you disclose personal information to us, it stays within Staged Home Staging and its trusted supplier network. The only exception involves disclosure to the government according to normal business practice, for instance for the collection of taxes, and according to the orders of a court, for example, responding to a subpoena or search warrant.

The following are basic questions you may have about our privacy statement. We recommend that you read the full statement for additional details.
Why is Staged Home Staging updating its privacy statement?
We now meet the high standards required by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and have updated our privacy statement to reflect that. We also strive to simplify language and remove jargon, to make our privacy statement easier to read and understand.
What is the GDPR?
The GDPR is a regulation intended to strengthen and unify data protection for everyone within the European Union (EU). Although Staged Home Staging does not service this area, we believe that all our customers and users that may stumble upon our marketing and reading materials can benefit from its mandates, so we’re implementing it to our website which is globally visible. The GDPR requires greater openness and transparency from companies on how they collect, store and use personal data, while also imposing tighter limits on the use of personal data. You can learn more here.

We will update our privacy statement as necessary to ensure that our policies are in line with international regulations, our service and business practices.
