1. Introduction
TrueNorth USA Logistics LLC ("we," "our," or "us") respects your
privacy and is committed to protecting your personal, business,
and transport data. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect,
use, store, share, and protect information when you visit our
website, access our customer portal, or utilize our FTL, LTL,
specialized hauling, and supply chain brokerage services.
By using our website, digital solutions, or physical logistics
networks, you agree to the collection and use of information in
accordance with this policy. If you disagree with any terms,
please discontinue use of our web systems and logistics portals.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide, coordinate, and optimize
freight transportation and logistics management services. This
information falls into three broad categories:
-
Voluntary Submissions: Information provided
when you request a custom quote, submit a contact form, speak
to dispatch, register an account, or complete commercial
profile registrations.
-
Operational Dispatch Data: Details generated
during active linehaul, warehouse management, drayage
coordination, or order fulfillment.
-
Automated Logging: Technical, system, and
device metrics generated during interaction with our website
and dashboard servers.
3. Business Information
Since we primarily operate as a B2B enterprise carrier
orchestrator, we collect business-specific details to establish
active credit lanes, comply with transport regulatory agencies,
and execute load scheduling:
-
Corporate entity names, trade aliases, and standard tax
identification numbers (EIN/VAT).
-
Carrier DOT numbers, operating authority records (MC/MX
numbers), and insurance verification logs.
-
Business billing coordinates, purchase order records, and
bank credit authorization histories.
4. Shipping Information
To efficiently move and monitor freight transactions, we collect
and manage operational details specific to individual consignments
and transport routes:
-
Pickup and delivery coordinates, contact details of loading
docks, and facility coordinators.
-
Consignment properties including cargo weight, total
dimensions, temperature guidelines, and product
descriptions.
-
Real-time geo-coordinates, transit logs, trailer seals, and
digital proof-of-delivery (POD) documents.
5. Cookies
We employ standard HTTP cookies, web storage technologies, and
digital tracking pixels to store layout settings, secure system
logging sessions, and remember user portal preferences.
You can adjust your web browser's tracking parameters to disable
cookie generation or alert you when cookies are being delivered.
If you choose to decline our functional system cookies, some
operational elements within our dynamic client portals may
function with reduced optimization.
6. Analytics
We leverage analytical technologies, such as Google Analytics, to
monitor how visitors navigate and interact with our informational
domains and dashboard utilities. These services collect anonymous
device identifiers, IP addresses, click paths, and session
durations.
We analyze this telemetry strictly to evaluate loading speeds,
optimize user interface components, and gauge marketing campaign
impact. This analytical data remains aggregated and is not linked
directly to your active shipping records.
7. Communications
We communicate with clients, partner carriers, and drivers through
several channels to guarantee smooth shipping execution:
-
Transactional Notifications: Electronic
emails and cellular SMS alerts providing load dispatch
instructions, estimated arrival times, and border clearance
confirmations.
-
Service Updates: Periodic alerts concerning
major weather events, route disruptions, seasonal load
adjustments, or corporate infrastructure improvements.
8. Third Parties
We do not lease or sell database records to marketing firms. To
coordinate freight actions, we share data with specific, trusted
logistics partners:
-
Vetted motor carriers, owner-operators, and dispatch desks
assigned to carry out specific shipments.
-
Cloud-based technology vendors hosting our central database,
EDI connections, and dashboard frameworks.
-
Government port authorities, cross-border customs agents, and
Department of Transportation inspection hubs.
9. Security
We implement industry-standard physical, technical, and
administrative controls to protect database archives. All
internet-facing portal traffic is encrypted using SSL/TLS data
pipelines, and internal file storage configurations restrict
visibility strictly to authenticated employees on a need-to-know
basis.
While we utilize modern security practices to preserve data
integrity, no electronic transmission over the public internet or
virtual database system can be guaranteed as completely
invulnerable. In the event of a documented system compromise, we
will notify affected business clients in compliance with local
regulatory standards.
10. Retention
We retain business documents, transport logs, and tracking metrics
only for as long as necessary to fulfill active logistics
contracts, maintain accurate billing ledgers, or satisfy
applicable state, federal, and FMCSA safety audit records.
When stored files are no longer required under contract or
statutory records guidelines, we completely delete or anonymize
the database structures to ensure they can no longer be associated
with individual users or client profiles.
11. User Rights
Depending on your regional jurisdiction (such as California under
the CCPA/CPRA, or various other state frameworks), you may retain
certain choices regarding your data resources:
-
The Right to Access: You can request
detailed catalogs displaying what data categories we have
recorded about your business or personal identity.
-
The Right to Correction: You can submit
requests to update obsolete mailing addresses, incorrect
contact phone numbers, or invalid corporate tax registration
identifiers.
-
The Right to Deletion: You can request that
we purge personal and corporate account files, subject to
regulatory retention obligations.
12. Children's Privacy
Our websites, digital freight portals, and transportation
management tools are developed exclusively for commercial B2B
operations and are not intended for or directed toward individuals
under the age of 18.
We do not intentionally or knowingly collect, store, or process
personal data from children under the age of 13. If we discover
that a minor under 13 has inadvertently registered an account or
provided identifying metrics, we will delete those files from our
database logs.
13. International Users
TrueNorth USA Logistics LLC operates primarily in the United
States and manages transport corridors that cross international
borders, including Canada. Database files are stored and processed
on servers located in the United States.
By accessing our networks from outside the United States, you
recognize that your data may be transferred to and governed under
United States jurisdiction, which may have data protection
standards different from your domestic laws.
14. Policy Changes
We reserve the right to revise or adjust this Privacy Policy at
any time to reflect changing regulatory requirements, advancements
in security architectures, or procedural updates in our transport
operations.
When material updates are implemented, we will revise the "Last
Updated" timestamp at the top of this document. We encourage our
clients and logistics partners to periodically review this page to
remain informed about our data protection standards.
