Business Successors: In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of all or substantially all of Shippiz's assets, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections. You hereby consent to such transfer. We will provide notice of any such transfer as required by applicable law.

With Your Consent: We may share your information with additional third parties where you have provided your affirmative consent.

5. Data Roles — Controllers and Processors

For purposes of applicable data privacy law:

Shippiz as Controller: Shippiz acts as a Data Controller (or "Business" under applicable U.S. law) with respect to information you provide about yourself — including your Account Data, Platform Usage Data, Communications Data, and Payment Data.

Shippiz as Processor: Shippiz acts as a Data Processor (or "Service Provider" under applicable U.S. law) with respect to the personally identifiable information of your end-consumers (e.g., recipient names and addresses) that you transmit through the Services in your capacity as a Data Controller or Business. Shippiz processes such end-consumer PII solely as directed by you and as necessary to provide the Services, as set forth in Section 17 of the Terms of Service.

Your Responsibilities as Controller: If you transmit end-consumer PII to Shippiz, you represent and warrant that you have obtained all necessary consents and provided all required privacy notices to your end-consumers prior to transmission, in accordance with applicable law including the CCPA, GDPR, DPDPA, and NJDPA.

Data Category Retention Period

Account Data — Duration of account plus three (3) years following termination

Shipment and Transaction Data — Seven (7) years from transaction date

Integration and API Data — Duration of active integration plus one (1) year following disconnection

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Shippiz uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Website for the following purposes:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the Website to function, including session management, authentication, and security. These cannot be disabled.

  • Functional Cookies: Enable enhanced functionality and personalization, including remembering your preferences and saved settings.

  • Analytics Cookies: Collect information about how you use the Website, including pages visited and features used, to help us improve the Services, including through machine learning and AI development.

  • Marketing Cookies: Used only where you have provided explicit consent, to deliver relevant content and measure the effectiveness of communications.

You may control cookie preferences through your browser settings or through any cookie consent mechanism displayed on the Website. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Services. We do not respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals. Shippiz currently recognizes Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as opt-out requests for the sharing of personal data under applicable law, including the CCPA and NJDPA. GPC signals are treated as opt-out requests only with respect to the sale or sharing of personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. A GPC signal does not affect Shippiz's processing of personal data for service delivery, billing, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or AI model training on de-identified or aggregated data. Regardless, you may submit opt-out requests as described in Section 8.
