PROTECTION OF CUSTOMER INFORMATION
Please be aware that ZipX is a product of IBC Bermuda Ltd, a Bermuda Limited Company (Hereinafter “IBCB Ltd.”) as such by accepting the terms of this agreement you are transacting with IBCB Ltd. We understand the importance of privacy to our customers, visitors to our website and users of our mobile applications. For many years, our policy has been to treat what we learn about our customers as confidential. For example, we will not give or sell confidential or personal information about our customer to any third party not affiliated with their transaction, except as required by law or as necessary to provide IBCB Ltd. services to the customer.
We collect and store information about every package we handle so that we can efficiently provide the package delivery services demanded by our customers. We use information about our customers, their packages, and their shipping activity to provide or enhance the services we make available to our customers, to enhance our ability to communicate with our customers about additional services they may find of value, to satisfy our legitimate business interests (including performing trend analysis and market studies), to set prices, establish credit, fulfill a Contract of Carriage or Service Agreement, accomplish the billing function, and to comply with government regulations. Although government regulations vary in the many countries in which we operate, they frequently include the reporting of information to transportation safety, customs, and other regulatory agencies.
As we collect and use information about our customers, we may contract with vendors to assist us in processing that information. These vendors are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are restricted from using the information for any purpose other than helping to provide IBCB Ltd. services to our customers.
Some of the information collected by IBCB Ltd. is personal data or data which relates to an identifiable person. Examples of personal data are names, addresses, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers, and telephone numbers. We never sell information to third parties that could be used to specifically identify an individual customer or group of customers. Anonymized data, with all names, addresses and other personally identifiable information removed, is sometimes shared with third parties. Finally, we do provide personal data to government agencies as required by law or regulation.
In addition to the uses of the information described in the paragraphs above, we collect telephone numbers and email addresses in the event that we have to contact the shipper, or the shipment recipient, to resolve a question or provide shipment status information. Email addresses are additionally used to communicate special offerings and company news that pertains to the customer.
