1. About this policy
This Privacy Policy describes how ContainerMondo ("ContainerMondo," "we," "us," or "our") handles information when you visit our website or use our services to be matched with shipping container suppliers. By using our website, you agree to the practices described here.
ContainerMondo is a network of verified shipping container suppliers. We help you find and compare suppliers, but the suppliers — not ContainerMondo — sell and deliver containers. Your dealings with a supplier may also be governed by that supplier's own privacy practices, which we do not control.
2. Information we collect
Information you give us
When you request a quote, contact us, or otherwise interact with our site, you may provide information such as your name, email address, phone number, ZIP code or location, and details about the container you are looking for (type, size, condition, and intended use).
Information we collect automatically
When you visit our website, we and our providers may automatically collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, links clicked, and the dates and times of your visits. We collect this using cookies and similar technologies (see section 5).
Information from other sources
We may receive information about suppliers from public sources and ratings to build our ContainerMondo Score, and we may receive information from quote partners or service providers that help us operate the platform.
3. How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Match you with suppliers in your area and pass your request to them so they can prepare quotes;
- Operate, maintain, and improve our website and services;
- Respond to your questions and provide customer support;
- Build and update our ContainerMondo Score and other comparison tools;
- Measure how our site is used and improve performance and content;
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues; and
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
4. How we share information
We may share information in the following ways:
- With suppliers and quote partners. When you submit a quote request, we share your request details with matched suppliers and the quote partners that help connect you with them, so they can contact you.
- With service providers. We use third parties for hosting, analytics, form handling, and similar functions. They may access information only to perform services for us.
- For legal reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of ContainerMondo, our users, or others.
- In a business transfer. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
5. Cookies & tracking
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, understand how the site is used, and improve your experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though disabling them may affect how parts of the site work. Some of our analytics providers may also use cookies subject to their own privacy policies.
6. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you;
- Request that we correct or update inaccurate information;
- Request that we delete your personal information; and
- Opt out of certain sharing of your information.
Residents of states such as California, Virginia, Colorado, and Connecticut may have additional rights under their state laws. To make a request, contact us using the details in section 12. We will respond as required by applicable law, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. Our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals.
7. Data retention
We keep personal information for as long as needed to provide our services, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, resolve disputes, and meet our legal obligations. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it.
8. Data security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children's privacy
Our website is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
10. Third-party links
Our website may link to third-party sites, including supplier and partner websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any site you visit.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Significant changes may be highlighted on our website. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
