Privacy Notice

For what purposes does Amazon process my personal information?

We process your personal information to help ensure your safety and the safety of others, to facilitate and improve the Services, to develop and improve products and services for our customers, to comply with legal obligations, and to protect Amazon, you, and others.

These purposes include:

• Confirming your identity and eligibility to provide Services: We process your personal information to verify your identity and to confirm your eligibility to perform the Services in accordance with the requirements and service standards shared with you or your Transportation Company.
• Supporting your safety and the safety of others: We process your personal information to support safety programs and in circumstances where your safety or the safety of others may be at risk. To do this effectively, we may need to process your geolocation when you are at an Amazon Site or when you are on the road performing Services. We may also process data relating to your compliance with health and safety rules or standards to improve safety.
• Managing our contractual relationship with you or your Transportation Company: We process your personal information to coordinate, manage, and audit the provision of the Services by you or your Transportation Company. We do this to ensure compliance with contractual obligations, policies, and service standards.
• Providing support to you, your Transportation Company, shippers, our customers, and other delivery recipients: We process your personal information to provide support to you, your Transportation Company, shippers, our customers, and other delivery recipients to ensure the effective completion of the Services. This includes to plan routes and track delivery or shipment progress, to manage contacts from you, your Transportation Company, shippers, our customers, and other delivery recipients, to communicate with you via different channels (e.g., by phone, SMS, in app communications, or email), and to manage or enhance our customers’ experience.
• Developing and improving products and services for you, your Transportation Company, and our customers: We process your personal information to develop, maintain, operate, and improve products and services that we offer you, your Transportation Company, and our customers. For example, we may process your personal information to improve mapping and routing systems, logistics planning, or alert accuracy of in-vehicle safety devices or apps. We also process surveys and other feedback mechanisms to improve our services and the delivery experience.
• Identifying and addressing fraud, theft, and other incidents: We process personal information to detect, investigate, resolve, or report (as appropriate) any fraud, theft, or other wrongdoing or incidents, including missing parcels or freight, accidents, and other on-road incidents.
• Complying with legal obligations and protecting Amazon, you, and others: In certain cases, we collect and process your personal information to comply with the law. For instance, we may process or share data related to your compliance with health and safety standards or requirements for operating regulated commercial vehicles. We may also process your personal information to enforce or apply our contract with you or your Transportation Company, or to protect the rights or property of Amazon, you or your Transportation Company, our customers, or others. For example, we may process some of your personal information to support insurance claims or other disputes.
• Purposes for which we seek your consent: We may also ask for your consent to process your personal information for a specific purpose that we communicate to you. When you consent to our processing your personal information for a specified purpose, you may withdraw your consent at any time and we will stop processing of your data for that purpose.

Does Amazon share my personal information?

We share your personal information only as described below and with Amazon.com and its affiliates that are either subject to this Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Notice.
• Your Transportation Company: We may share some of your personal information with your Transportation Company, including your location, the parcels or freight assigned to you, the status of your progress, accidents or other incidents in which you may be involved, and your compliance with health and safety rules or standards. Your Transportation Company may process this information to support its programs and operations, including for safety purposes and to confirm your eligibility to perform the Services, for employment purposes (if applicable), for incident investigations, or as needed in the course of providing the Services.
• Third-party service providers: We may share your personal information with third parties who provide services to us or to your Transportation Company, such as the Technology Partners that install or manage the Amazon Transportation Technology you use, shippers in order to facilitate your check-in at third-party sites, survey companies, or where legally permissible, background check service providers. These third-party service providers have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not process it for other purposes except with your consent or as permitted or required by law. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with this Notice and as permitted by applicable data protection laws.
• Business transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy other businesses or services. In such transactions, relevant business data (which may include your personal information) is generally one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing privacy notice (unless you consent otherwise).
• Shippers, customers, and delivery recipients: We may share some personal information, such as your first name, photo, and location data, with shippers, customers, or other delivery recipients when you are providing Services to protect your safety and the safety of others, to enable shippers, customers, or other delivery recipients to see the status and location of their shipment or delivery, and to improve the shipping or delivery experience.
• Complying with legal obligations and protection of Amazon, you, and others: We may share your personal information when we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law, to enforce or apply our contract with you or your Transportation Company, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Amazon, you or your Transportation Company, our customers, or others. For example, we may release some of your personal information for insurance claims, law enforcement requests, or in connection with investigations or legal proceedings.
• Upon your request or authorization: We may share some of your personal information with other parties when you request or authorize us to do so.

Does Amazon transfer my personal information outside of the country in which I provide Services?

Transfers out of EU or UK. We may transfer your personal information to countries outside the country or region where you perform Services, for example, when we or one of our service providers works with employees or equipment in other countries. Whenever we transfer personal information to countries outside of the European Economic Area or the UK, we ensure that the information is transferred in accordance with this Notice and as permitted by the applicable laws on data protection. We rely on European Commission adequacy decisions or use contracts with standard safeguards published by the European Commission (you can e-mail us at the contact details listed under “Controllers of Personal Information” for a copy of these) and similar measures under UK laws for such transfers.

How secure is information about me?

We design our systems with your security and privacy in mind.

• We work to protect the security of your personal information during transmission by using encryption protocols and software.
• We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage, and disclosure of personal information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
• It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your log-in, password, and to the Amazon Transportation Technology. Be sure to use strong passwords and to sign off when you finish using a shared device or are no longer providing Services, when applicable.

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that we or your Transportation Company can associate your identity with this information only where there is a legal obligation to do so and in limited cases aimed at ensuring your safety; and
• Metrics such as your rate of successful or on time deliveries to enable us to manage your or your Transportation Company’s compliance with agreed service standards.

We may also use device identifiers, cookies, and other technologies on devices, applications, web pages, and other Amazon Transportation Technologies to collect browsing, usage, or other technical information in order to enhance your user experience, and understand how drivers and Transportation Companies use Amazon Transportation Technologies so we can make improvements.

CAMERA TECHNOLOGY NOTICE

This Camera Technology Notice supplements the Ground Transportation Privacy Notice and describes how we collect and process personal information from Camera Technology used when you are providing Services through a DSP or AFP.

What personal information may the Camera Technology collect?

• Driver identification information, such as full name and photo.

• Video recordings of the vehicle interior (including occupants of the driver and passenger seats) and external views including to the front, right, left, and the rear of the vehicle. Video recordings are automatically captured while the vehicle is on and for a short period of time after the vehicle is turned off. If the vehicle is turned on but the vehicle has not moved for a certain amount of time, video camera recordings of the cab interior are automatically turned off. This footage may be uploaded from the Camera Technology to secure servers in the following circumstances:
o When you tell the camera to record and upload, if this feature is available (for example, you may choose to upload video footage manually to document safety concerns or delivery issues);
o When the camera detects an accident or potential safety incident, such as a failure to stop at a stop sign or at a red light, unsafe following distance, speeding, distracted driving (e.g. using a handheld device while operating the vehicle), or an emergency braking event;
o When information useful to improve maps and routing is detected; and
o If still available, when Amazon or your Transportation Company requests it in compliance with applicable law, such as when the footage could be useful in connection with an investigation. Footage that is not uploaded remains encrypted and is automatically overwritten so that there is never more than a limited amount of footage stored on the Camera Technology.

Neither Amazon nor your Transportation Company will access footage of the cab interior, except when you initiate recording or to the extent required by Amazon or its Technology Partners to verify the accuracy of in-vehicle alerts, or as otherwise permitted under applicable law.

• Information related to your operation of the vehicle including:
o Vehicle location and movements, such as distance driven, speed, acceleration, braking, turns, or following distance;
o Contextual factors outside the vehicle, such as traffic lights and traffic signs, proximity to other vehicles, or whether the vehicle is in a construction or school zone;
o Potential traffic violations, such as speeding, seatbelt non-compliance, or failure to stop at a stop sign; and
o Potentially unsafe driving behaviors, such as distracted or drowsy driving.

How may Amazon and your Transportation Company process the personal information collected?

We process your personal information for the purposes noted in the Ground Transportation Privacy Notice, including:
• To promote your safety, and the safety of Amazon personnel and others, including by providing real-time in-vehicle alerts when potentially unsafe conditions or behavior are detected, and to support advanced safety features and driver assistance technologies.
• To manage Amazon’s contractual relationship with you or your Transportation Company, including assessing your or your Transportation Company’s compliance with Amazon policies and service standards.
• To support safety programs and operations, such as to generate safety reports that your Transportation Company can use to recognize positive and safe driving practices or to provide feedback and training regarding proper road safety conduct.
• To investigate accidents or other incidents, to support insurance claims or disputes, or to support legal proceedings.
• To troubleshoot and improve Amazon’s services, the delivery experience, or the Amazon Transportation Technology, including to improve the accuracy of mapping, routing, and navigation data or to verify and improve the accuracy and precision of event detection capabilities and in-vehicle alerts.

Who will have access to your personal information from Camera Technology?

• Your Transportation Company. Your personal information may be made available to your Transportation Company, including through a secure portal hosted by us or the relevant Technology Partner. Your Transportation Company may use this information to support its safety programs and operations, for employment purposes (if applicable), for incident investigations, or as needed in the course of providing the Services.
• Amazon personnel and group companies. We may make your personal information available to designated Amazon personnel, including those who are responsible for the safety of drivers, investigation of accidents and on-road incidents, and the accuracy of in-vehicle alerts. Your personal information may also be disclosed by Amazon to other Amazon affiliates on a need-to-know basis or where such entities otherwise have lawful access to your personal information. All Amazon entities we share your information with are either subject to this Camera Technology Notice or follow practices that are at least as protective as those described in this Camera Technology Notice.
• Third-party service providers. Third-party service providers are permitted to access, process, and retain your personal information only for the purpose of providing services to Amazon or to your Transportation Company or to improve services provided to Amazon or to your Transportation Company as described in this Camera Technology Notice and only in a manner consistent with this Camera Technology Notice. Our Technology Partners provide safeguards that meet Amazon standards regarding the confidentiality and security of your personal information. For example, they must comply with our data security standards, data protection laws, and international transfer restrictions, may only have access to personal information needed to perform their functions and may not process it for other purposes than providing the agreed services.
• Insurers, authorities, opposing parties, and professional advisors. Under appropriate circumstances, such as insurance claims, disputes, investigations, or legal proceedings, your personal information may be disclosed to insurers, courts, governmental or administrative authorities, opposing parties, professional advisors, or as otherwise permitted under applicable laws.

Amazon does not otherwise share personal information collected from Camera Technology with any third parties and does not sell such personal information.

Please refer to the Ground Transportation Privacy Notice for additional information, including how your personal information is secured, how to exercise your rights under applicable laws, and who to contact with privacy questions or concerns.

Photo and Facial Recognition Information Use and Retention Notice

Amazon may require users of the Amazon Transportation Technology to provide a photo for identification purposes. Amazon may derive a scan of your face geometry or similar biometric data for identification purposes (“Facial Recognition Information”) from (i) your provided photos, and (ii) your driver’s license or government-issued ID. Amazon processes your Facial Recognition Information derived from such photos for identification purposes, including to ensure your log-in credentials are not misused by a third party. We will seek your consent before collecting your Facial Recognition Information. If you choose not to consent or you withdraw your consent to this method of identity verification, Amazon will instead verify your identity through other means and will do so on the basis of Amazon’s legitimate interest in ensuring your safety and that of others, and in preventing fraud. Your photo may also be used on your in-app ID card and to identify you to Amazon personnel, shippers, customers, and other delivery recipients.

This Notice governs our retention of your photos and Facial Recognition Information in connection with your provision of Services (as defined in the Ground Transportation Privacy Notice). Amazon generally retains your Facial Recognition Information only for as long as it takes to complete the verification of your identity, which usually takes a few days. Thereafter, Amazon will promptly delete the Facial Recognition Information. Amazon will retain your photos while you use the Amazon Transportation Technology and thereafter for so long as permitted by law.

Amazon may disclose your photos to our third-party providers or have such third-party providers collect your photo directly via use of their technology, but such third-party providers will only be permitted to access, process, retain, and share Facial Recognition Information for the purpose of providing services to Amazon or improving services provided to Amazon as described in this Notice and only in a manner consistent with this Notice. Amazon does not otherwise share your photos or Facial Recognition Information with any third parties and does not sell your photos or Facial Recognition Information.
