    We may aggregate and/or anonymize Personal Data so that it will no longer be considered Personal Data. We do so to generate other data for our use, which we may use and disclose for any purpose, including, without limitation, to generate reporting and to improve the design and content of our products, services, websites and apps, and Coyote may share this data with third-parties.

    Collection and use of location data

    Coyote tracks the location of its shipper customers’ loads to help ensure a smooth delivery. Coyote makes available different ways for carriers and drivers to choose to provide location updates on the Coyote loads they are moving.

    • By telephone calls or website entries.
    • Through electronic logging devices.
    • Through connection to the carrier’s transportation management-system or otherwise by the carrier, to provide location data of their drivers when they are moving loads for Coyote.
    • Through the use of the CoyoteGO app, which is operated by our affiliate Coyote Logistics, LLC. Please refer to the privacy statement available via: https://coyote.com/privacy-policy/
    • Through the use of a third-party app – Drivers who download a third-party app may agree to allow Coyote to track loads they are carrying. To agree, the driver must enable location services for the app in their phone’s system preferences. If a driver opts into the collection of location data, the app will provide Coyote regular updates on the driver’s location, from a three-hour period leading up to the scheduled pick-up time, for the duration of the shipment, and, if the load has not been marked as delivered in Coyote’s systems, for up to 48 hours after the scheduled drop-off time. Coyote stops collecting location information from the app once the load is marked as delivered in Coyote’s systems. The driver may call their carrier representative or the toll-free number 1- 877-6-COYOTE to tell Coyote that the load has been delivered. The driver may opt out of the collection of location data at any time through their phone’s systems preferences, by disabling the app from accessing their phone’s location data.
    • Through load photos, provided by a driver through apps. Once downloaded by a driver, the app prompts the driver to take a photo of the trailer at load pick-up and then again at delivery. The photo’s metadata provides the load’s locations at those two points in time.

    Disclosure of personal data

    Coyote may disclose Personal Data of customers to supply-chain participants such as drivers and carriers, warehouses, and distributors to the extent necessary to coordinate, execute and monitor shipments, to provide services you have requested or authorized, and for other legitimate business purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. These legitimate business purposes include (i) to comply with legal obligations, such as customs regulations and sanctions laws, and (ii) to address security concerns. In these scenarios we may process your contact details, locations data and copies of ID documents. Please note that we will only process copies of ID documents if legally required. Coyote may also disclose Personal Data of carriers and drivers to customers and supply-chain participants for such purposes.

    Coyote may disclose Personal Data to its affiliates in the United Parcel Service (“UPS”) group of companies for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We may also disclose Personal Data to our service providers to perform tasks on our behalf for business purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. These can include providers of services such as website hosting, data analysis, payment processing, order fulfilment, information technology and related infrastructure provision, customer service, email delivery, auditing, and other services. For example, we may disclose Personal Data to third-party service providers that operate our websites on our behalf. Note that if a carrier updates his or her contact or other information (including his or her insurance certificate) on our websites the service provider may share, in accordance with its privacy policy, the updated information with its other customers that already have a relationship with that carrier. Coyote is not responsible for the actions or inactions of service providers where they are considered the “owner” or “data controller” under applicable law. In addition, we disclose Personal Data to third-party service providers that receive information submitted through contact forms available on our websites, as well as facilitate further email communications, on our behalf.
