Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information on our site.
Sharing
We use reputable and contracted outside shipping companies (such as DHL, DHL Parcel, FedEx, TNT, LSO, Canpar, and UPS) to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.

We partner with another party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services. These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.
In line with legislation and security best practices we ensure that all third parties adhere to the latest data legislation and have robust security and policies in line with that of Click4ship to ensure all obligations and commitments of Click4ship and that of our customers and any other data subjects are adhered to and protected, and that individuals' rights remain fully protected throughout the fulfilment of arranged shipments..

Security
We take commercially reasonable security precautions to help protect your information. When you submit personal information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect personal information (such as names, addresses, emails, contact numbers, order details, etc), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the Web page.
All users and developers of our shipping solutions, administrative systems, code and databases have unique identifiers and passwords. Our solutions are built with audit trails and identifiers to identify all activity. The use of generic/shared logins is strictly prohibited.
While we use encryption to protect personal information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment using AES-256 encryption. Our code and server architecture is structured in such a way using AWS to provide the best security protection to our system and databases. In relation to people with direct access to the databases this is controlled and limited very strictly. Our firewalls and IP access controls are further areas in which protection is provided.
In addition to the security measures and data protection in place there are policies and tools used to detect intrusion attempts, identify any breaches, and for the use of external security consultants to conduct regular penetration tests.
Our escalation process for the identification and notification of incidents ensure we comply with our legal and contractual obligations.
We restrict access to your Personal Data to certain companies who need the data to operate, develop, or improve the Services. These individuals or partner organizations are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations. All such parties have also been checked to ensure the same standard and legal obligations around security and data protection are met. In the event we determine the occurrence of a data security incident, we will notify you by mail, post, telephone or other means as permitted by law.
Access to information
You have the right to access information held about you.
Right to deletion, rectification and data export. We permit you to delete, rectify and export information you have provided to us, subject to the conditions of our Customer Terms and our legal obligations set out below.
Retention. We retain Personal Data for as long as we provide the Services to you or your account remains open. However, we may keep some data after your account is closed or you cease using the Service, for the purposes set out below.
After you have closed your account we may retain Personal Data where reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations (including law enforcement requests), meet regulatory requirements, maintain security, prevent fraud and abuse, resolve disputes, enforce our Customer Terms, offer new features you may be interested in, or fulfil your request to “unsubscribe” from further messages from us. If none of these obligations apply we will delete Personal Data upon your written request. We will retain Non-Personal Data after your account has been closed.
Amazon Customer Data
Please note in relation to Amazon customer personally identifiable information data transmitted using the Amazon API we ensure that all aspects of the Amazon Data Protection Policy are met. This includes the removal (deleted completely) of all Amazon customer personally identifiable information from our system within 30 days of order shipment. In addition to Click4ship removing personal data from our system, the shipping companies we use also provide the facility for customers to request the removal of any personally identifiable data from their systems.
Applicable Data Protection Law
For the purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the data controller is Click4ship Global Ltd.
Where we store your Personal Data for EU Customers only
The Personal Data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the provision of support services. By submitting your Personal Data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing outside of the EEA. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We always ensure that your information is only transferred in full accordance with UK data protection laws and/or applicable EU data protection law. In particular, this means that your information will only be transferred to a country that provides an adequate level of protection (for example, because the European Commission has determined that a country provides an adequate level of protection) or the recipient is bound by standard contractual clause according to conditions provided by the European Commission (“EU Model Clauses”). You are responsible for checking the privacy policy of any third-party websites we link to.
Our Service is accessible via the Internet and may potentially be accessed by any user around the world. Other users may access the Service from outside the EEA. This means that where you chose to upload your data to the Service, it could be accessed from anywhere around the world and therefore a transfer of your data outside of the EEA may be deemed to have occurred. You consent to such transfer of your data for and by way of this purpose.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Service, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share any password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Service; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
The Service may contain links to and from third party websites of our partners, networks, advertisers and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for the privacy practices or content of these websites.
Complaints: If you have any complaints about our use of your information please contact us as set out at the end of this Privacy Policy or contact the UK supervisory authority – The Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”).
This Privacy Policy will remain in effect except with respect to any changes in its provisions in the future, which will be in effect immediately after being posted on this website.
We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy at any time and you should check this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after we post any modifications to the Privacy Policy on this page will constitute your acknowledgment of the modifications and your consent to abide and be bound by the modified Privacy Policy.
If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you either through the email address you have provided us, or by placing a prominent notice on our website.
If you feel that we are not abiding by this privacy policy, you should contact us immediately.
If you have any questions, comments, or complaints concerning our privacy practices or if you wish to change, access, or remove your Personal Data please contact us as indicated below.
