We may use cookies and similar technology on the Link Website and in emails we send you to collect certain information, such as whether you opened or clicked on links in our emails.

Cookies. Cookies are files that websites send to your computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify your browser or to store information or settings on your device. The Link Website may use cookies (such as HTTP, HTML5 and Flash cookies) as well as other types of local storage (such as browser-based or plugin-based local storage).

We use different types of first and third-party cookies on the Link Website for several reasons. First-party cookies are those that we place on your device through the Link Website; third-party cookies are cookies that another party places on your device through the Link Website.

We use third-party web analytics services on the Link Website such as Google Analytics. These service providers help us analyze how visitors use the Link Website. The information obtained for this purpose (including your IP address and other information collected by automated means) may be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers.

Other tracking devices

In conjunction with gathering information through cookies, our web servers may log information such as your device type, operating system type, browser type, domain, and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone in which your device is located. We also may record information such as the address of the web page that referred you to the Link Website and the IP address of the device you used to connect to the Link Website.

We also may send instructions to your device using JavaScript or other computer languages to gather the sorts of information described above and other details about your interactions with the Link Website.

Cross-device tracking

Link uses data analytics companies, advertising networks, or social media companies, and the features they offer, to engage in “cross-device tracking,” which occurs when platforms, publishers, and advertising technology companies try to connect a consumer’s activity across smartphones, tablets, desktop computers, and other connected devices. The goal of cross-device tracking is to enable companies to link a consumer’s behavior across devices.

IV. How we protect Personal Information

Link maintains administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect Personal Information we obtain through the Link Website against accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure, or use. However, neither individuals nor security systems are foolproof, and the transmission of information via the Internet is also not completely secure. As a result, while Link uses reasonable security measures to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Please contact privacy@linklogistics.com if you become aware of any unauthorized access to or use of the Link Website or Link Services, or the information collected and maintained in relation to them.

Where Link has given you or allowed you to choose a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Link Website or Link Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential and for complying with any other security procedures of which we notify you or which you believe are reasonable. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

To facilitate Link’s global operations, Link may store, transfer, and access the Personal Information that you submit on the Link Website to Link’s offices or third-party service providers around the world, including the United States, Canada and jurisdictions that may not provide levels of data protection that are equivalent to those of your home jurisdiction. We will take steps to ensure that your Personal Information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it.

This Privacy Policy shall apply even if Link transfers such information to other countries. By using the Link Website and providing any information through the Link Website, you consent to the transfer of your information and Personal Information among the facilities in these countries, including those located outside your home country. Do not use the Link Website if you do not want your Personal Information to be transferred to the United States or to other countries, or if the laws in your country restrict these types of transfers.
