Introduction

GR Dispatch Inc. (“Cartwheel”) understands and respects our users’ need for privacy. This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) describes the types of information we collect, the purposes for which it is used, and the choices you have with respect to its use.

About Cartwheel

Cartwheel is a logistics management software and route optimization platform for businesses offering last-mile delivery. You can access the Cartwheel service (“Service” or “Services”) via our website dashboard, smartphone applications, SMS messaging feature on mobile devices, APIs, and through third-parties. For more information about our Services, check out our website.

Scope and Application

This Notice applies to users of the Cartwheel Service (e.g. delivery drivers or “Drivers”), paying Cartwheel clients (“Clients”), and Cartwheel website visitors (including our homepage at trycartwheel.com, order, reseller, and support pages, collectively “Sites”). This Notice also applies to our Clients’ customers (“Recipients”). We encourage you to read this Notice in full to understand our privacy practices before using our Services.

Information We Receive From You

We collect the following information through your use of our Services, and otherwise with your consent. In some cases, we receive information directly from you, such as when you sign up for a dispatcher or administrative Cartwheel account, we collect your name, email address, and phone number. In other cases, we receive information about you from our Clients when they use our Services, such as your name and phone number when you are added as a driver by an administrator or dispatcher. The types of information that we collect include

1. Information about you and your Cartwheel account – Name, email address, postal address, phone number, company name, credit card payment information, customer and delivery information (such as scheduling information and delivery destination), and in some cases, your photograph. You provide this information to us directly during the account registration process.
2. Vehicle information of drivers – Transportation method, vehicle year, make, model, color, and license plate number. You provide this information to us directly when using our Services.
3. Driver behavioral information – We collect information about how you drive your vehicle. This includes time, location, bearing, speed, and accuracy. We collect this information automatically when you use our Services.
4. Geolocation information – Driver location is collected from their device’s native location service, which combines GPS, cell-tower, Wi-Fi, and other sensor data to accurately pinpoint a driver’s latitude and longitude while the driver is “on-duty.” We do not access, collect, or store location information from a driver’s mobile device when they are off-duty or offline. We may collect other information such as application crash reports or application usage analytics for drivers who are not online for the express purpose of providing and improving our Services. For example, if you engage the chat function as a driver while off-duty, we may collect and use application usage analytics for support purposes to understand the driver journey. We may remotely log in to the application, with your permission, to resolve an issue if our application crashes.
5. Business contact information – We collect personal information from individuals when we attend or host events, conferences, and other business meetings. This information includes business contact information such as name, email address, and phone number.
6. Device information – IP address, device type, operating system, manufacturer, model and version number, and unique device identifiers such as your device ID, but not IMEI. We collect this information automatically when you use our Services.
7. Browser and usage information – Operating System (OS) running on your device, Internet Protocol (IP) address, access times, browser type, and language, and the website you visited before our Sites. We also collect usage details, such as time, frequency, and use pattern. In some cases, we analyze information on specific end users such as the amount of time spent on the platform. In other cases, we look at data in the aggregate. We use this information to optimize our Services. We collect this information automatically when you use our Services.

To learn about your information collection choices and to opt-out of data collection, see the “Your Choices” section below.

Information We Receive from Other Sources

1. Clients of our Services – Clients of our Services may provide information about you when they submit content through our Services. For example, you may be mentioned in a troubleshooting ticket opened by someone else. We also receive your email address from other users when they provide it to invite you to our Services. Similarly, a dispatcher may provide your contact information when they designate you as a driver on their company’s account.
2. Client customers – We may receive personal data about you from one of our Client’s customers. We will only use this information for the purpose of providing our Services. For example, a recipient of a delivery may provide personal information about you when submitting a support ticket.
3. Other partners – We receive information from partners to help us find potential customers and enhance our Services with useful information. For example, information provided by our partners allows us to provide route optimization services, such as when we receive mapping and location information or spatial data analytics from Google Maps.

How We Use, Share, and Disclose Information

We use collected information to:

1. Communicate with you – We may contact you to respond to your inquiries, requests, and/or send important notices either via email, SMS, push notifications, and in-app notifications.

Deliver and improve our Services – We use your information to deliver and analyze how you use our Services, develop new products and services, and improve functionality, quality, and user experience.

For more information see “Browser and usage information” in the “Information We Receive From You” section above.
4. Market our Services – We use your information to market our Services. For example, we may send you an email notification about new product features.

2. Marketing emails – You can choose to stop receiving marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions included in these emails, or by using the email address listed in the “Contact Us” section below.

You have certain rights in connection with the personal information we obtain about you. To update your preferences, correct your information, limit the communications you receive from us, or submit a request to exercise your rights, please contact us as specified in the “Contact Us” section.

As required by law, you have the right to:

Children’s Privacy

How Long We Retain Information

How long we keep information we collect about you depends on the type of information, as described below.
