Privacy Policy
Last updated August 3, 2026
Shipment Tracker (operated under the FleetStreetGPS brand, "we," "us") provides GPS tracking hardware and a fleet dashboard/mobile app so customers can monitor the location and status of their own shipments and vehicles. This page explains what data we collect, why, and how it's handled.
What we collect
- Account information — name, email address, and a hashed password when you create an account or are added as a staff user.
- Location data — GPS coordinates, timestamps, satellite count, and signal quality (HDOP) reported by the tracking hardware assigned to your account. This is the core data the service exists to show you.
- Device metadata — tracker IDs, names, notes, shipment origin/destination, ETA, and reporting-interval settings you configure.
- Push notification token — an Apple-issued device token, only if you enable alerts in the mobile app, used solely to deliver your own arrival/offline/no-GPS alerts to your own device.
- Basic usage/diagnostic data — standard web server logs (IP address, request timestamps) for security and abuse prevention.
What we don't collect
- Your phone's own location is never sent to us or stored — the mobile app can optionally show a blue dot for your own position on the fleet map (standard Apple Maps behavior, only if you grant permission), purely for on-device orientation. Every tracker position you actually see comes from your GPS hardware, not your phone.
- We do not sell, rent, or share your data with data brokers or advertisers.
- We do not run advertising trackers or third-party analytics SDKs in the mobile app.
How we use your data
Solely to operate the service you signed up for: showing your tracker locations on the fleet map and in trip history, sending the alerts you've opted into, authenticating you, and providing customer support. Staff accounts on your team see only devices assigned to your account; we do not share your fleet data across customers.
Where it's stored
Data is stored on servers we operate and control, encrypted in transit via TLS. We retain location history for as long as your account is active, or until you request deletion of a device's history from the dashboard (available any time under a tracker's settings) or of your account (contact us, see below).
Analytics
The public marketing website may use privacy-respecting, first-party-loaded analytics (Google Analytics) to understand traffic to informational pages. The mobile app and fleet dashboard do not include this analytics code.
Your choices
- Push notifications can be disabled any time in iOS Settings or by turning off alerts in the app.
- You can purge a device's location history from the dashboard at any time.
- You can request full account deletion by contacting us — see below.
Children
Shipment Tracker is a business/fleet tool and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page and, where required, notify account holders.
