THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES THE USE OF MANDATORY ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, AS DETAILED IN SECTION I.14 BELOW, SUBSCRIBER AGREES TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS DISPUTE PROCEDURES, UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BELOW, AND SUBSCRIBER AGREES TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION SUIT.

BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, SUBSCRIBER ALSO AGREES TO TRUCKER TOOLS’ PRIVACY POLICY IN SECTION II, WHICH IS INCORPORATED INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY BE UPDATED FROM TIME TO TIME.

These Terms of Service set forth in Section I (these “Terms”) are made by and between the party accepting these Terms and/or the party on whose behalf they are accepted (“Subscriber”) and Trucker Tools and are effective as of the date set forth in Section I.13.1. “Trucker Tools”,  “we”, “our”, or “us” means Trucker Tools, LLC, a Virginia limited liability with offices located at 11710 Plaza America Drive, Suite #2000, Reston, VA 21090 and its affiliates.  The complete agreement with respect to the Services (the “Agreement”) includes these Terms, any online or written ordering documents detailing the scope of Services, which may or may not include a statement of work (each a “Service Order”), the Privacy Policy set forth in Section II, and/or any document incorporated herein or therein by reference.

3.3 Voluntary account alerts may be turned on by default as part of the Services. They may then be customized, deactivated, or reactivated by Subscriber. These alerts allow Subscriber to choose alert messages for Subscriber’s accounts. Trucker Tools may add new alerts from time to time, or cease to provide certain alerts at any time upon its sole discretion. Each alert has different options available, and Subscriber may be asked to select from among these options upon activation of Subscriber’s alerts service.

3.4 Electronic alerts may be sent to the email address Subscriber has provided as Subscriber’s primary email address for the Services. If Subscriber’s email address or Subscriber’s mobile device’s email address changes, Subscriber is responsible for informing us of that change.

Confidential Information.  From time to time during the Term, either party may disclose or make available to the other party information about its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information, whether orally or in written, electronic, or other form or media/in written or electronic form or media, and whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as “confidential” (collectively, “Confidential Information”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that the party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first have given written notice to the other party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish a party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. On the expiration or termination of the Agreement, the receiving party shall promptly return to the disclosing party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the disclosing party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed. Each party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Start Date and will expire five years from the date first disclosed to the receiving party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

20. ELD Privacy Policy

Integrating your GPS/ELD/telematics devices with Trucker Tools is used for the purpose of providing visibility on active Trucker Tools broker customers’ loads within the Trucker Tools Load Tracking platform and improving our products and services, including using the foregoing as input for training artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar technologies. Trucker Tools pulls data when a truck is assigned to an active load and the data we read and display may include the following:

  • Vehicle identifier/asset ID (tractor number, trailer number, personID or device ID)
  • Latitude/longitude coordinates
  • Corresponding timestamp
  • Temperatures, such as ambient temperature, humidity level, and/or set and recorded temperatures 
  • Refrigerated trailer details (power status, alarms, etc.)

Trucker Tools calls the provider’s API with the API key/credentials the carrier shared to pull the location data for the assigned truck at a frequency of every 5-20 minutes. We display the last known location of the assigned truck on the broker’s load within their Load Tracking account. This data may also be sent to the broker’s TMS if they have a TMS integration with Trucker Tools for Load Tracking.
