1. Introduction
Dropright Corp ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and delete information when you visit our website, when you contact us, when you use the Dropright platform, and when you connect a sales channel to Dropright so that we can fulfill and ship your orders.
This policy covers two different kinds of information. The first is information about you as a visitor to this website or as a Dropright customer. The second is information about your orders and your buyers that we receive from a marketplace or store you have connected to Dropright. We hold the second kind on your behalf, to carry out the fulfillment and shipping services you have asked us to perform.
2. Information We Collect
From website visitors. When you visit this website we collect certain information, and analytics data only where you accept analytics cookies:
- Usage details (via Google Analytics, only if you accept analytics cookies)
- IP addresses
- Browser type
- Pages visited
- Your approximate country, looked up from your IP address when you reach the second step of our contact form, so that we can prefill the country and calling code for you
From contact and support forms. When you fill out a contact or support form we collect the information you enter, including your name, email address, phone number, company, country, your estimated monthly order volume, the services you tell us you are interested in, and the content of your message.
From customers of the Dropright platform. When you open and use a Dropright account, we collect the information you give us directly: your name and contact details, your account credentials, your business and billing addresses, and, where you pay us by bank transfer, your bank account and routing numbers for billing.
From connected marketplaces and stores. When you authorize Dropright to connect a sales channel, we receive order and fulfillment data from that channel through its official application programming interface. Today that covers Shopify and the marketplaces you connect through ShipStation. Our Amazon connection is in development; once it is available and you authorize it, Dropright will receive that data from Amazon through the Amazon Selling Partner API (SP-API). We will add other marketplaces and store platforms as we support them. What we receive is limited to what is needed to fulfill and ship your orders:
- Order details: order identifiers, order dates, items, quantities, prices, and order status
- Buyer contact and delivery details: recipient name, shipping address, and the contact details the marketplace provides for delivery purposes
- Product details that arrive on the order: product identifiers, titles, and quantities
- Fulfillment details: carrier, service level, tracking numbers, shipment status, and delivery confirmation
We do not request or receive payment card numbers or bank account numbers from a connected marketplace. Where we hold bank account details, you gave them to us directly for billing, as described above.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use information collected through this website to:
- Respond to your inquiries
- Improve our website and services
- Analyze website traffic and usage patterns
- Prevent fraudulent activities
4. How We Use Marketplace and Order Data
We use the order and fulfillment data we receive from a connected marketplace or store only to perform the fulfillment and shipping services you have asked us to perform, specifically to:
- Import your orders and make them available in your Dropright account
- Pick, pack, and fulfill those orders through our own facilities or our third-party logistics network
- Compare carrier rates and purchase and generate shipping labels and customs documentation
- Send tracking numbers, carrier information, and ship confirmations back to the marketplace the order came from
- Handle returns, claims, and customer service inquiries relating to those orders
- Produce invoices and the shipping and customs documents your orders require
We do not sell marketplace or order data, we do not use it for advertising or marketing to your buyers, and we do not use it to build profiles for any purpose unrelated to fulfilling your orders. We do not combine one seller's marketplace data with another seller's, and we do not provide it to other parties except as needed to ship that seller's orders.
5. Marketplace and Order Data Retention
Amazon-sourced personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information that Dropright receives from Amazon is retained for no longer than 30 days after order delivery, except where retention is required to fulfill orders, to calculate and remit taxes, to produce tax invoices and other legally required documents, or to meet legal or regulatory requirements. Where a longer retention period is required by law, we retain the information only for the purpose of complying with that law. Deletion requests from Amazon or from you are recorded when we receive them and completed within 30 days, unless a legal or tax obligation requires us to retain the information, in which case we tell you that and why.
Other marketplace and customer data. Order, customer, and shipping data that we receive from other connected marketplaces and from our customers is retained while the customer account is active, and after that only for as long as our tax, accounting, and legal obligations require.
Website and contact data. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of the analytics provider. Contact and support form submissions are retained for as long as needed to answer your inquiry and to keep a record of our correspondence with you. Our servers also keep technical logs, including reports our website receives when a browser flags a content-security issue on one of our pages; those reports contain the page address but not your IP address. These logs are kept only as long as needed to operate and secure the site.
6. Who We Share Data With
We share data only with the parties listed below, only for the purposes stated, and only to the extent needed for that purpose. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
- Shipping carriers and label providers. Recipient name, shipping address, contact details for delivery, and parcel details are sent to the carrier you select, and to the label and rating providers we use to buy postage on your behalf, so that the shipment can be rated, labeled, carried, and tracked.
- Third-party logistics and fulfillment partners. Order and shipping details are shared with the warehouses and fulfillment partners in our network that pick, pack, and ship your orders.
- The marketplace or store the order came from. Tracking numbers, carrier information, and ship confirmations are sent back to the channel the order originated on.
- Website service providers. Google Analytics for traffic analysis, loaded only if you accept analytics cookies; Google reCAPTCHA v3 for form abuse prevention; SendGrid for delivering the emails generated by our website forms; ipify and ipapi.co, which receive your IP address when you reach the second step of our contact form, so that we can prefill your country and calling code; and Google Maps (Google LLC), which shows our location on our contact page and on our fulfillment-facility page. Google Maps loads in your browser when you open those pages, so Google receives your IP address and browser information, and it may set cookies under Google's own terms. These pages load the map whether or not you accept analytics cookies.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers. Providers that operate parts of the Dropright platform on our behalf and process data only on our instructions: website hosting on our own server infrastructure (DigitalOcean, orchestrated by Coolify), Neon for database hosting, Upstash for caching and job queues, Cloudflare for file storage and content delivery, Stripe for payments, SendGrid for email delivery, and Twilio for SMS.
- Legal and regulatory recipients. Government authorities, customs authorities, and legal advisors where disclosure is required by law or is necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect personal information. These include encryption of data in transit using TLS; encryption of credentials and access tokens at rest, field by field, using AES-256-GCM within the application database; role-based and organization-scoped access controls that limit what each account can reach; and error and audit logging of administrative actions. No method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Security Incidents
We investigate security incidents that affect personal information. Where an incident affects information we hold, we notify the customers concerned and, where the law requires it, the relevant authorities, without undue delay.
9. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected, to have it deleted, to receive a copy of it in a portable format, and to object to or restrict how we process it. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in the Contact Us section below. We record your request when we receive it and complete it within 30 days, unless a legal or tax obligation requires us to retain the information, in which case we tell you that and why.
If you are a buyer who placed an order on a marketplace and that order was fulfilled through Dropright, we hold your information on behalf of the seller you bought from. Contact that seller first, or contact us and we will work with the seller to answer your request.
10. Your Privacy Choices
Dropright does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If you would like to submit a do-not-sell or do-not-share request, or ask us to confirm that we do not, email [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy request" and tell us what you would like us to do.
