Loadsmart Simple Quote Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy Statement of Loadsmart, Inc.’s Simple Quote Product. This statement of our privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how Loadsmart, Inc. (“Loadsmart,” “we,” or “us”) collects and uses personal, non-personal and tracking and mobile data information from users (“Users” or “you”) of its Microsoft Excel add-in, Simple Quote (“Product”), and the platform of services Loadsmart offers and provides through the Product (“Services”). The Product permits direct access to our Loadsmart website (the “Website”).

Terms and Conditions. By assessing or using our Website through the Product, you agree to be bound by the most current version of the Loadsmart User Agreement (“Agreement”). That Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions for using the Website and our platform of Services and incorporates by reference this Privacy Policy. Please read that Agreement carefully. If you do not agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth and incorporated by reference in the Agreement or are not authorized to agree to and be bound by the Agreement, you may not use the Website.

Your Consent. By using, and each time you use, the Product, the Website and its related sites, applications, tools, or our platform of Services, you expressly consent to the collection, use, processing, disclosure, and retention of your information as described in and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You also accept and agree to be bound by the Privacy Policy.

The Information We Collect and Its Use. When you access this Product, you may provide Loadsmart three types of information: personal, non-personal, and tracking and mobile data (together the “Covered Information”).

Personal. “Personal information” is individually identifiable information about you, not otherwise available to the public, such as your name, address, phone number, and email address, that you willingly provide us in order to use or pay for our Platform or Services. You may provide us personal information when you use our Product, visit the Website, register as a User, use certain features of our Website platform such as submitting or posting information, making or accepting bookings, and paying for Services you use. We collect personal information from Users only when they voluntarily provide it to us.

Non-Personal. You also may provide us non-personal identification information when you use our Product or access our Website. You may, for example, provide us your browser’s name and its characteristics and enable us to identify your Internet service provider, your operating system and IP address, your method of connectivity to Product or the Website, and other similar information.

Tracking and Mobile Data. In order to perform its Services, when you use certain features of Loadsmart’s Service platform, or input information directly into the Product, we may receive, collect, store, and process different types of information about your location and that of your assets (e.g. your trucks or your in-transit goods).

Sharing Covered Information with Loadsmart’s Trusted Partners and Vendors. Loadsmart may share your Covered Information with its trusted partners in order to provide you with the Product and Services and relevant advertising and offers. We also may allow advertising companies to collect data through our Services.

Steps to Secure Covered Information: Our Disclaimer. We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized access or disclosure; however, you understand that privacy cannot be guaranteed on our system, or other systems such as those used in order to provide our Services and the Product, because no security or encryption method can be guaranteed to protect information from all hackers or to be devoid of all human action or error. Accordingly, we expressly disclaim liability to you or any third party for any claims, loss, damages, or costs resulting from a lack of privacy.

Special-Situation Disclosures. To operate the Service and the Product, we also may make identifiable and anonymous information available to unrelated third parties in these limited circumstances: (1) with your express consent, (2) when we have a good faith belief it is required by law, (3) when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to protect our rights or property, or (4) subject to appropriate confidentiality protections, to any successor or purchaser in a merger, acquisition, liquidation, dissolution, or sale of assets. Your consent will not be required for disclosure in these cases, but Loadsmart will attempt to notify you, to the extent permitted by law to do so.

Changes To This Privacy Policy. Loadsmart last updated this Privacy Policy on June 27, 2019. We may change our Privacy Policy from time to time in our discretion. When we make any material changes, we will place a prominent notice on our Website or application and will revise the updated date at the bottom of this page. If the change materially affects registered Users, we will undertake to send you notice by email, push notification, or text. We also urge all Users to check these pages frequently and the current revision date for any changes.
