How we handle your information.
This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, who it is shared with, and the choices you have.
Effective October 9, 2026
Welcome to PSTL Freight (“we”, “us”, “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you visit our website — pstlfreight.com — or interact with us via online forms, SMS, or other digital services.

- Usage information: IP address, browser type/version, pages viewed, timestamps
- Shipment details: Shipping address, delivery instructions, tracking number

2. How We Use Your Personal Information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
- To process and manage your shipments, including booking, tracking, and delivery notifications
- To send confirmations, updates, receipts, and support messages by email or SMS
- To deliver marketing communications, but only if you have opted in to receive them

3. SMS Consent Is Not Shared With Third Parties
If you opt in to receive SMS/text messages from PSTL Freight, we will send you shipment updates, delivery alerts, and relevant service notifications.
SMS consent is not shared with third parties or affiliates. We only send SMS messages directly related to your own shipments or requested communications and never sell or rent your SMS consent or phone number.
4. Who We Share Your Personal Information With
We may share your personal data in these specific, limited scenarios:
- Third-party service providers: For processing shipments, payments, analytics, hosting, and marketing tools — under strict confidentiality agreements
- Regulatory or legal authorities, when required by law or necessary to protect rights or safety
- Business transfers: In case of merger, acquisition, or sale, with notice to you and safeguards in place
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share your SMS consent or mobile number with third parties for marketing beyond PSTL Freight.
5. How We Protect Your Information
We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to secure your information, including:
- Encrypted transmission (HTTPS) on forms and checkout pages
- Secure, access-controlled storage systems
- Regular security assessments and staff training
However, no system is 100% secure. While we strive to protect data, we cannot guarantee it fully.
7. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct, update, or delete your information
- Opt out of marketing communications at any time
- Withdraw SMS consent by replying “STOP” to any text message or contacting us directly
To exercise any rights, email us at Onboarding@pstlfreight.com or use the Contact Us form.
8. How Long We Retain Your Data
We generally retain your personal and shipment data for as long as is necessary to fulfill our services and legitimate business needs, and in accordance with legal or regulatory retention requirements.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in law or our services. The “Effective Date” at the top will reflect the date of the latest update. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
10. The Prime Star Driver App
The Prime Star app is for drivers who haul for Prime Star Transport and Zepton Star Transport. Accounts are created by our company; the app does not offer public sign-up. When you use it, we collect:
- Precise location, including in the background: while you are signed in, the app shares your phone's location with Prime Star dispatch continuously, including when the app is closed and when you are off duty. Dispatch uses it to see where company trucks are, offer you the nearest loads, show load progress to customers, and keep drivers safe. Signing out of the app stops location sharing.
- Photos and documents: pictures you take or choose of fuel receipts, bills of lading, scale tickets, and onboarding documents such as your driver's license and medical card.
- Driver records: your name, phone, email, truck and trailer numbers, loads, hours of service, pay information, and the onboarding details you enter.
- Device information: a notification token so we can send you load offers and updates.
We use this information only to dispatch and pay you, run our trucking operations, and meet safety and regulatory requirements. We share load details (your name, truck, trailer, and load status) with the customer who ordered the load and their dispatch software, and we use service providers to run the app: our hosting and database providers, Apple and Google for notifications, and our business phone provider for text messages. We do not sell this information or use it for advertising.
11. Deleting Your Account
To delete your Prime Star app account and the personal information linked to it, email Onboarding@pstlfreight.com with the subject “Delete my Prime Star account” from the email or phone number on your account, or call us at the number below. We delete your account and location history within 30 days. Load, pay, and safety records we are required by law to keep (for example under FMCSA and tax rules) are retained for the period the law requires and then deleted.
