Camel Logistics LLC Privacy Policy

Last Updated: Oct 30, 2022

At Camel Logistics LLC our mission is to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation, providing LugIt, a platform to help you get from point A to point B. To do that, we need to collect, use, and share some of your personal information. This Privacy Policy is meant to help you understand how Camel Logistics LLC does that and how to exercise the choices and rights you have in your information.

Camel Logistics LLC’s privacy homepage provides additional information about our commitment to respecting your personal information, including ways for you to access and delete that information.

The Scope of This Policy

This policy applies to all Camel Logistics LLC users, including Shippers and Transporters (including Transporter applicants), and to all Camel Logistics LLC platforms and services, including our apps, websites, features, and other services (collectively, the “Camel Logistics LLC Platform”). Please remember that your use of the Camel Logistics LLC Platform is also subject to our Terms of Service.

The Information We Collect

When you use the Camel Logistics LLC Platform, we collect the information you provide, usage information, and information about your device. We also collect information about you from other sources like third-party services, and optional programs in which you participate, which we may combine with other information we have about you. Here are the types of information we collect about you:

A. Information You Provide to Us

Account Registration. When you create an account with Camel Logistics LLC, we collect the information you provide us, such as your name, email address, phone number, birth date, and payment information. You may choose to share additional info with us for your Shipper profile, like your photo or saved addresses (e.g., home or work), and set up other preferences (such as your preferred pronouns).

Transporter Information. If you apply to be a Transporter, we will collect the information you provide in your application, including your name, email address, phone number, birth date, profile photo, physical address, government identification number (such as social security number), Transporter’s license information, vehicle information, and car insurance information. We collect the payment information you provide us, including your bank routing numbers, and tax information. Depending on where you want to drive, we may also ask for additional business license or permit information or other information to manage Transporting and programs relevant to that location. We may need additional information from you at some point after you become a Transporter, including information to confirm your identity (like a photo).

Ratings and Feedback. When you rate and provide feedback about Shippers or Transporters, we collect all the information you provide in your feedback.

Communications. When you contact us or we contact you, we collect any information that you provide, including the contents of the messages or attachments you send us.

B. Information We Collect When You Use the Camel Logistics LLC Platform

Location Information. Great Ships start with an easy and accurate pickup. The Camel Logistics LLC Platform collects location information (including GPS and WiFi data) differently depending on your Camel Logistics LLC app settings and device permissions as well as whether you are using the platform as a Shipper or Transporter:


service, we collect information about these communications, including the participants’ phone numbers, the date and time, and the contents of SMS messages. For security purposes, we may also monitor or record the contents of phone calls made through the LugIt Platform, but we will always let you know we are about to do so before the call begins.

Address Book Contacts. You may set your device permissions to grant LugIt access to your contact lists and direct LugIt to access your contact list, for example to help you refer friends to LugIt. If you do this, we will access and store the names and contact information of the people in your address book.

Cookies, Analytics, and Third-Party Technologies. We collect information through the use of “cookies”, tracking pixels, data analytics tools like Google Analytics, SDKs, and other third-party technologies to understand how you navigate through the LugIt Platform and interact with LugIt advertisements, to make your LugIt experience safer, to learn what content is popular, to improve your site experience, to serve you better ads on other sites, and to save your preferences. Cookies are small text files that web servers place on your device; they are designed to store basic information and to help websites and apps recognize your browser. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be accessed every time you use the LugIt Platform. You should consult your web browser(s) to modify your cookie settings. Please note that if you delete or choose not to accept cookies from us, you may miss out on certain features of the LugIt Platform.

    How We Share Your Information

    We do not sell your personal information. To make the LugIt Platform work, we may need to share your personal information with other users, third parties, and service providers. This section explains when and why we share your information.

    A. Sharing Between LugIt Users

    Shippers, Transporters, and receivers.

    Shipper information shared with Transporter: Upon receiving a Ship request, we share with the Transporter the Shipper’s pickup location, name, profile photo, rating, Shipper statistics (like approximate number of Ships and years as a Shipper), and information the Shipper includes in their Shipper profile (like preferred pronouns). Upon pickup and during the Ship, we share with the Transporter the Shipper’s destination and any additional stops the Shipper inputs into the LugIt app. Once the Ship is finished, we also eventually share the Shipper’s rating and feedback with the

Transporter. (We remove the Shipper’s identity associated with ratings and feedback when we share it with Transporters, but a Transporter may be able to identify the Shipper that provided the rating or feedback.)

Transporter information shared with Shipper and Receivers: Upon a Transporter accepting a requested Ship, we will share with the Shipper the Transporter’s name, profile photo, preferred pronouns, rating, real-time location, and the vehicle make, model, color, and license plate, as well as other information in the Transporter’s LugIt profile, such as information Transporters choose to add and Transporter statistics (like approximate number of Ships and years as a Transporter).

Although we help Shippers, Transporters and Receivers to communicate with one another to arrange a pickup, we do not share your actual phone number or other contact information with other users. If you report a lost or found item to us, we will seek to connect you with the relevant Shipper or Transporter, including sharing actual contact information with your consent.

Ships Requested or Paid for by Others. Some Ships you take may be requested or paid for by others. If you take one of those Ships using your LugIt Business Profile account, a code or coupon, a subsidized program (e.g., transit or government), or a corporate credit card linked to another account, or another user otherwise requests or pays for a Ship for you, we may share some or all of your Ship details with that other party, including the date, time, charge, rating given, region of trip, and pick up and drop off location of your Ship.

Referral Programs. If you refer someone to the LugIt Platform, we will let them know that you generated the referral. If another user referred you, we may share information about your use of the LugIt Platform with that user. For example, a referral source may receive a bonus when you join the LugIt Platform or complete a certain number of Ships and would receive such information.

B. Sharing with Third-Party Service Providers for Business Purposes

  • Financial information, such as bank routing numbers, tax information, and any other payment information you provide us.

  • Commercial information, such as Ship information, Transporter/Shipper statistics and feedback, and Transporter/Shipper transaction history.

  • Internet or other electronic network activity information, such as your IP address, type of browser, version of operating system, carrier and/or manufacturer, device identifiers, and mobile advertising identifiers; and

  • Location data.

    We disclose those categories of personal information to service providers to fulfill the following business purposes:

    C. For Legal Reasons and to Protect the LugIt Platform

    We may share your personal information in response to a legal obligation, or if we have determined that sharing your personal information is reasonably necessary or appropriate to:

  • Comply with any applicable federal, state, or local law or regulation, civil, criminal, or regulatory inquiry, investigation or legal process, or enforceable governmental request.

    required or permitted by law.

    We may share your personal information while negotiating or in relation to a change of corporate control such as a restructuring, merger, or sale of our assets.

    E. Upon Your Further Direction

    With your permission or upon your direction, we may disclose your personal information to interact with a third party or for other purposes.

    How We Store and Protect Your Information

    We retain your information for as long as necessary to provide you and our other users the LugIt Platform. This means we keep your profile information for as long as you maintain an account. We retain transactional information such as Ships and payments for at least seven years to ensure we can perform legitimate business functions, such as accounting for tax obligations. If you request account deletion, we will delete your information as set forth in the “Deleting Your Account” section below.

We take reasonable and appropriate measures designed to protect your personal information. But no security measures can be 100% effective, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information, including against unauthorized intrusions or acts by third parties.

Your Rights and Choices Regarding Your Data

As explained more below, LugIt provides ways for you to access and delete your personal information as well as exercise other data rights that give you certain control over your personal information.

In some cases, we will be unable to delete your account, such as if there is an issue with your account related to trust, safety, or fraud. When we delete your account, we may retain certain information for legitimate business purposes or to comply with legal or regulatory obligations. For example, we may retain your information to resolve open insurance claims, or we

may be obligated to retain your information as part of an open legal claim. When we retain such data, we do so in ways designed to prevent its use for other purposes.
