Applicability of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Parsyl.com (the “Website”), Parsyl’s mobile application (the “App”), the associated web and mobile platforms that provide cargo tracking and monitoring services (the “Services”), and any other interactions (i.e., customer service inquiries or social media) you may have with Parsyl. If you do not agree with any of the terms of this Privacy Policy, do not use the Services or access the Website or App.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third party applications or software that integrate with the Services through the Parsyl platforms, or any other third party products, services or businesses. In addition, a separate agreement governs delivery, access and use of the Services (the “Service Agreement”), including the collection, use and access to Cargo Data (defined below). The organization (i.e., your employer or other entity) that entered into the Service Agreement (“Customer”) controls access to and use of the Services. If you have any questions about your workplace privacy practices, please contact your employer whose account you are using.
Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We may make changes to the Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by sending you an email, posting a notice on the home page of the Website or App, or posting a notice in your account. If you receive notification of a change in our Privacy Policy, you should review the new policy carefully to ensure you understand our practices and procedures.
Information We Collect and Receive
Parsyl may collect information about you when you sign up to use the Services, access or interact with the Website or App, or otherwise transmit information to us via our cargo tracking and monitoring devices, or via phone or email. We may also obtain information about you from our affiliates and business partners and from publicly available information. The information Parsyl collects includes:
Personal Information.
When you create an account with Parsyl, you or the Customer (e.g., employer) supply us with Personal Information including name, mailing address, email address, phone number and company name. We also collect information necessary to use the Services such as username, password and similar account details.
Website and Mobile App Information.
As with most websites and technology services delivered over the Internet, our servers automatically collect information when you access or use our Website or App and record it in log files. This log data includes IP address, address of the web page visited before using the Website or App, browser type and settings, date and time the Services were used, information about browser configuration and plugins, information on actions taken on our Website or App (such as page views and site navigation patterns), and general geographic location, such as country and city, from which a visitor accesses the Website or App.
Location Information.
We may receive location information from you when you use our App. Parsyl also collects information from the devices used to provide cargo tracking and monitoring services via wireless communication, including temperature, humidity, light, impact, and geographical positioning data (collectively, “Cargo Data”). Typically, Cargo Data is not associated with any natural person except for the specific account that the device is tied to and any login credentials for that account.
Do Not Track Signals.
The Website does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Third party applications and plugins, such as social media integration, may treat DNT signals differently.
No Information From Children Under Age 13.
Neither the Website nor the App is directed to children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have collected Personal Information from a child under the age of 13, we will promptly delete that information. If you believe we have collected Personal Information from someone under age 13, please email us at privacy@parsyl.com, or call us at +1 (844) 472-7795.

GDPR Compliance
The GDPR provides certain rights to online users located in European Union countries (“EU Data Subjects”). An EU Data Subject has the right to access or rectify their Personal Information that Parsyl processes. Subject to certain exceptions, an EU Data Subject has the right to request that Parsyl erase that Personal Information or restrict the processing of it. When technically feasible, Parsyl will, at the EU Data Subject’s request, provide that person’s Personal Information to them or transmit it directly to another data controller. EU Data Subjects also have the right to file a complaint with the appropriate data protection authority. EU Data Subjects may exercise their rights, and ask any other related questions, by emailing privacy@parsyl.com.
