The company has been caught using online search terms connected to the violent clashes to promote its Twitter feed.
Using the name @HabitatUk, they "tweeted" updates about new products on the site.
But they also added "hashtags" - keywords that help Twitter users locate posts on specific themes - such as #Iran.
That meant that people searching for information about the deadly violence and mass protests in Tehran following the country's disputed election came up with posts advertising Habitat's goods.
