Last Updated: May 2026

01. Introduction

ClearCargo AS (“ClearCargo”, “we”, “us”) provides a digital platform for managing and coordinating cross-border shipment data.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal data in connection with our platform, website, and related services.

ClearCargo is designed to minimize the collection and storage of personal data wherever possible.

02. Data We Collect

We may process the following categories of data:

a) Account and User Data

  • Name and Email address
  • Company information
  • Login credentials

b) Shipment and Operational Data

  • AWB numbers and references
  • Parcel counts and weights
  • Flight and routing data
  • Shipment status events

This data does not typically contain personal data.

c) Consignee and Contact Data (Customs Facilitation Only)

ClearCargo does not store or persist consignee or recipient personal data within its core platform database.

In specific cases for customs facilitation, data may be processed temporarily to:

  • Structure Data
  • Validate Fields
  • Transmit to Brokers

Such data is processed in transit and is not retained by ClearCargo beyond what is necessary for technical processing and transmission.

d) Communication Data

  • Emails sent to/from ClearCargo
  • Inbound email integrations
  • Support requests

e) Technical and Usage Data

03. How We Use Data

  • Enable provider coordination
  • Monitor status events
  • Provide customer support
  • Improve performance

ClearCargo processes data strictly as part of its role as a digital platform and coordination layer.

04. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data based on:

  • Contractual necessity - to provide the platform
  • Legitimate interests - to operate and secure services
  • Legal obligations - where required under law

Customer Responsibility

Intermediary Clause:

ClearCargo does not determine the purpose of processing for shipment-related data. Consignee data is typically processed by independent third-party controllers (brokers/authorities) once transmitted.

07. Data Retention

Data is retained only as long as necessary to provide services and comply with law. Consignee data processed for customs facilitation is not retained beyond technical transmission.
