עמידה בתקנות GDPR

Tracktainer Ltd is committed to full compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. This page outlines our approach to data protection, our obligations as a data controller and data processor, and the measures we take to protect your personal data.

1. Data Controller

Tracktainer Ltd acts as the data controller for personal data collected through our website, platform, and services. This means we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data.

2. Data Processor Role

When our customers use Tracktainer to track shipments on behalf of their clients, we also act as a data processor. In this capacity, we process data strictly in accordance with our customers' instructions and applicable data protection law. We offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) to all customers upon request.

3. Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data only when we have a valid lawful basis:

• Contract performance (Article 6(1)(b)): To provide the tracking service you have subscribed to.

• Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)): To comply with tax, accounting, and regulatory requirements.

• Right to erasure (Article 17): Request deletion of your data when it is no longer necessary, or when you withdraw consent.
• Right to restrict processing (Article 18): Request limitation of processing while we verify accuracy or assess an objection.
• Right to data portability (Article 20): Receive your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (JSON or CSV).
• Right to object (Article 21): Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
