INTTRA Privacy and Security Policy
Updated January 10, 2007
This Privacy and Security Policy applies to all data and information INTTRA
may obtain about You, once You have used the INTTRA system. It should be read
in conjunction with the INTTRA Legal Terms and Conditions (“Legal Terms and
Conditions”) and all defined terms in that agreement have the same meaning in
this Privacy and Security Policy.
This document provides INTTRA’s current policy with regard to "Personally
Identifiable Information" (“PII”). PII is non-public information identifiable
with any particular named natural person. PII is collected by INTTRA through
the Portal, by e-mail correspondence, through third parties, or by any other
means. In addition to disclosure to third parties as indicated below, the
information You provide will be used by INTTRA and its affiliates to contact You
regarding Your inquiries and to otherwise operate the Portal.
INTTRA and/or its affiliates may use PII, and monitor Portal activity
generally, for other business purposes including marketing, to collect
information on how the Portal is used, and the volume and frequency of access,
so that we may improve the Portal and make recommendations to third parties to
improve the Services. INTTRA does not provide Your PII to third parties unless
authorized by You, without Your express prior consent, except as permitted under
this Privacy and Security Policy or under the Legal Terms and Conditions. While
aggregate or other information not identifiable with any particular named
natural person may be used or disclosed for other purposes and to other parties
as deemed appropriate by INTTRA, INTTRA limits access to the participant's PII
to the parties described herein.
PII obtained by INTTRA about You may be transmitted by INTTRA to third
parties for the purposes of operating the Portal and for the marketing and/or
provision of third party services. This is true even though a subsequent
shipment may have been arranged through channels independent of INTTRA. All of
the third parties offering information/Services through the Portal may receive
Your PII. In addition, information about particular shipments and PII relevant
to such shipments may be accessed by or transmitted to those arranging to have
goods shipped by carriers and by others involved with such shipments, as well as
by all parties named on the relevant bill of lading for that shipment, by any
other parties You have named as being authorized to access the data, and as
otherwise provided in this policy. You acknowledge that INTTRA is not
responsible for information or data in the possession of such third parties
regardless of how such data was obtained. Please consult the privacy policies of
these third parties to learn how they may use or disclose Your information. You
may be contacted directly by an individual carrier. Without limitation of any
provision in the Legal Terms and Conditions, INTTRA assumes no responsibility
for, nor shall in any way be liable for any loss of information or data nor for,
any improper use or disclosure of data resulting from any third party's
unauthorized access to, use of, or alteration of confidential data or
information provided to INTTRA by You.
Additionally, INTTRA may disclose any information, including PII, in the
following circumstances:
- In connection with a subpoena or similar legal process, to satisfy a port,
state or customs security initiative, reports to, or responses to requests by,
government authorities, or where disclosure is otherwise permitted or required
by law.
- To companies that provide technical services to us, such as data processing
companies only when such companies are bound to confidentiality with INTTRA. In
no way is a participating carrier recognized as a company that provides
technical services to INTTRA.
- In connection with an audit or other examination.
- Where necessary to protect the interests of INTTRA, the public, or other
participants in the shipments tracked on the Portal, for example, in the event
of suspected fraud or illegal activity.
- Where we deem it useful in connection with disputes or litigation.
- Where the customer has consented to or requested disclosure.
While no security procedures are fool-proof, INTTRA maintains procedures to
minimize the risk of unauthorized access to the data transmitted to and from,
presented, and stored by INTTRA. However, INTTRA shall not be responsible or
liable for any damages or losses arising directly or indirectly from intrusion.
You shall make commercially-reasonable efforts to ensure the secure transfer of
all data across data networks.
The PII we collect through the Portal is an asset of our business and in the
event that INTTRA, or a portion of its assets, are acquired or become the
subject of a merger, such information may be transferred with the business, or
disclosed to potential acquirers or others involved in any such transaction.
