2. Who We Are.
G2Mint offers a suite of cloud-based software-powered solutions simplifying and enhancing transportation management for shippers, brokers, and carriers. Please note that we are located in the United States, and G2Mint and this Privacy Notice are intended for United States residents only. If you are a resident of another country, you should be aware that any information about you may be transferred to and processed in the United States, and that privacy and data protection laws in the United States may not be equivalent to laws in your country of residence.
3. Applicability of This Privacy Notice to Personal Information.
This Privacy Notice applies only to “personal information,” by which we mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, or is reasonably capable of being associated with or linked to a particular consumer or household. This Privacy Notice does not apply to anonymized, de-identified, or aggregate information.
4. Our Primary Role as a “Data Processor” or “Service Provider”.
Through G2Mint, we provide solutions to our business customers (“Business Customers”), including Shippers, Carriers, and Brokers whose use of G2Mint may involve personal information of their Authorized Clients. In connection with these solutions, we collect and process personal information pursuant to our contractual arrangement with our Business Customers. In these contexts, we are generally acting as each such Business Customer’s “data processor” or “service provider,” and, since the Business Customer makes decisions about what personal information is collected and how it is used and shared, you should consult such Business Customer’s privacy notice to understand how your personal information is collected and processed. Except in uncommon situations (e.g., in connection with legal compliance, litigation, security concerns, etc.), we will only use, disclose, and otherwise process such personal information in connection with the purposes for which the Business Customer has contracted us.
When you interact directly with us and not via a relationship with another Business Customer, such as when you provide us with your contact or billing information for our own business purposes, we are generally acting as the “data controller” because we are making the decisions about what personal information is collected and how we use that information to fulfill our business purposes, and you should consult this Privacy Notice to understand how your personal information is collected and processed.

Certain states’ and countries’ data protection laws provide their residents with rights regarding businesses’ use of their personal information (sometimes referred to as “personal data”). Regardless of your state or country of residence, you can currently contact us at any time using the contact information listed in the last section of this Privacy Notice to request we do any of the following: (i) erase or delete all or some of your personal information; (ii) change, update, or correct your personal information; (iii) restrict how we use all or some of your personal information; (iv) access your personal information and, where applicable and feasible, request to receive that information in a commonly used electronic format (or ask for this information to be provided in that format to a third party); or (v) disclose what personal information we collect, use, disclose, or sell.
We will consider and respond to any such requests promptly and otherwise in accordance with applicable laws. Furthermore, if you choose to exercise your privacy rights or make the above requests, we will not treat you in a discriminatory way, nor will you receive a lesser degree of service from us.
In order to help ensure that your personal information is not disclosed to any person who does not have the right to receive it, and to help ensure your personal data is not mistakenly deleted or changed, we will attempt to verify that you are the subject of the personal information that your request concerns.
In many cases, our response may necessarily require the involvement of, and you may wish to contact directly, the relevant Business Customer that invited you to use G2Mint.
