We are headquartered in Ontario, Canada, and serve clients globally — including in the United States, the European Union, China, and other jurisdictions. This Policy is designed to reflect Canadian privacy laws such as PIPEDA, and we strive to align with international standards where applicable.

5. International Data Transfers

As a global logistics platform, your information may be processed or stored outside your jurisdiction — including in Canada, the United States, Europe, or Asia — where data protection laws may differ.

Where required by law, we aim to implement appropriate safeguards to ensure your information remains protected, including entering into data processing agreements (DPAs) with our vendors and pursuing lawful international transfer mechanisms, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), in the future. These steps are part of our commitment to enhancing global privacy compliance.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this Policy or as required by law. Generally:

  • Active user data: retained during account lifecycle

  • Transactional records: retained for 7 years (accounting and legal compliance)

  • Analytics data: anonymized or de-identified when feasible

We securely delete or anonymize data when it is no longer needed.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Enable site functionality and login sessions

  • Understand usage patterns and traffic

  • Provide language and regional preferences

  • Support marketing efforts (where permitted)

Users may control cookie settings through their browser or through cookie consent tools on our site. Certain features may not function without cookies.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:

  • Request access to your personal information

Despite our efforts, no method of data transmission is completely secure. Users share information at their own risk.
