Orcas Privacy policy
for user of sennder’s Services
sennder GmbH (“we” or “sennder”) is committed to the protection of personal data. This Privacy Policy is addressed to all users of sennder’s worldwide services, including users of sennder's platforms, apps, websites, functions or other online services (“Services”), unless covered by a separate privacy policy. Users within the meaning of this Privacy Policy include in particular carriers, drivers, dispatchers and customers.
With this Privacy Policy we would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect and process. Furthermore, this policy will inform you about your rights.
The data protection officer of sennder can be reached at the above-mentioned address, Attn. Data Protection Officer or at privacy@sennder.com.
We collect your information in a variety of ways, such as when you create a customer account via the internet portal “Orcas” (“Portal”) or otherwise, if you use the Portal or the other Services offered or if you order or execute transport orders for sennder. More details about how your information is collected are listed below.
When accessing the Portal or any other of our online Services, a number of general data and information is collected with each access. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The data collected could include the browser types and versions used, the operating system used by the accessing system, the date and time of access, an Internet protocol address (IP address), the Internet service provider of the accessing system and other similar data and information that serve the prevention of attacks on our information technology systems.
a) When you log on to the Portal or otherwise register for our Services, we might ask you for the following information: name, company or business name, contact details, registration number, names of authorized representatives.
b) After successful registration on the Portal we might ask you to submit further data and documents, e.g. current trade register excerpt, transport licence, insurance confirmation.

b) When using the mobile app, the location data is collected by sennder itself. If a telematics integration is used, the data is collected by third party providers who pass this data on to sennder. When using the mobile app sennder also collects data regarding the end device used and the use of the application.
If you interact with our customer support or telephone hotline, also if you report an incident, our team may collect and use information about you. Details about your communication with us will be stored.
