How We Use Location Tracking

The Aviel TMS mobile application (on Google Play and Apple App stores) collects background device location data with the intent of tracking an active transportation vehicle’s position for the purposes of (A) communicating prompt and accurate ETA information to first-party entities (i.e. shipper & customer), (B) reducing the need to contact drivers directly with distracting texts / phone calls, and (C) providing the means for 3rd party transportation services to automatically transmit their driver’s position, which is a common and expected contractual obligation in logistics.

Device location tracking begins (background location transmission) only if a driver is logged in, and if that driver has an active load. Location transmission ceases once the final appointment on an order has been completed, or the driver logs out. Location transmissions may be used to create a “check call” instance in Aviel’s database, which is retained for an order’s historical tracking data and is not shared with 3rd parties. Aviel may share anonymized position data (simple time and coordinates, no user data) with our 3rd party transportation partner to obtain ETA information with respect to the active order’s next destination(s).

Drivers using the Aviel mobile app can choose to reduce precision, allow only foreground tracking, or revoke location data tracking altogether via their OS settings, but may experience limited respective performance (only for features that rely on location data).

Effective

This policy is effective as of 12 February 2024.
