Lopes Express Shipping INC Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026
This Privacy Policy governs the manner in which Lopes Express Shipping INC (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “Lopes Express Shipping”) collects, uses, maintains, and discloses information collected from users (each, a “User”) of the www.lopesexpressshipping.com website. This Privacy Policy applies to the Site and all products and services offered by Lopes Express Shipping INC.
Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. We may change this policy from time to time as described in the “Changes to this Privacy Policy” section below.
Personal Identification Information
We may collect personal identification information from Users in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, when Users visit our Site, request a quote or place a shipping order, subscribe to our newsletter, fill out forms provided to Users or found on the Site, communicate with us by phone, text/SMS, email, live chat, or other channels, and in connection with other activities, services, features, or resources we make available on our Site or in connection with our services.
Users may be asked for, as appropriate: name, email address, phone number, vehicle information (year, make, model, VIN, operational status), pickup address and contact information, delivery address and contact information, billing address, payment information (processed via our payment processor), and any other identifying information related to their shipment, including information about other individuals involved in the pickup or delivery process.
We may collect information about other individuals from Users if Users elect to have another individual involved in the pickup or delivery process (for example, a contact person at pickup or delivery).
We will collect personal identification information from and about Users in two primary ways:
- Information provided directly by Users when they voluntarily submit such information to us.
- Information collected automatically as Users navigate through our Site, which may include domain address, IP address, browser type and version, operating system, internet service provider, device identifiers and type of device used to access the Site, the web pages and content viewed on our Site, the website visited before coming to our Site, and information collected through cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies.
Users may always choose not to provide personal identification information to us; however, doing so may prevent them from engaging in certain Site-related activities or may prevent us from providing some or all of our services.
Web Browser Cookies and Tracking Technologies Our Site may use first-party and third-party “cookies” and other tracking technologies to enhance User experience, perform internal analytics, understand how our Site is used, and improve our products and services.
Cookies are small files that a Site or its service provider transfers to a User’s computer hard drive or mobile device through their web browser (if allowed) that enables the Site or service provider’s systems to recognize the browser and capture and remember certain information.
We may use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences and settings, understand and save Users’ preferences for future visits, compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interactions, and support advertising or marketing efforts with our partners.
Users may choose to set their web browser to refuse cookies or to alert them when cookies are being sent. If a User chooses to refuse cookies, some parts of the Site may not function properly.
How We Use Collected Information
Lopes Express Shipping INC may collect and use Users’ information for the following purposes:
• To improve customer and User service.
• To personalize User experience and understand how Users use our Site.
• To operate and improve our Site, services, and content.
• To process transactions and manage shipments, including quoting, booking, dispatching, billing, and collections.
• To coordinate pickup and delivery, communicate with carrier and drivers, and provide updates about shipments.
• To communicate with Users by phone, email, text/SMS, or other channels for support, updates, or notices.
• To send marketing communications (with consent, where required by law).

How We Protect Your Information
We adopt commercially reasonable data collection, storage, and processing practices and security measures to help protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your personal information, username, password (if applicable), transaction information, and data stored on or transmitted through our Site.
We use industry-standard security technologies and procedures appropriate to the nature of the information we collect, such as encryption, access controls, and secure servers, and we require similar safeguards from third-party service providers that process information on our behalf. Payment information is processed only through PCI-compliant third-party payment processors.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your information.

• To contractors, service providers, carriers, drivers, and other third parties we use to support our business, including for shipment coordination, customer support, payment processing, hosting, analytics, or communications.
• To third-party review platforms or survey providers for service feedback (shared only with your consent).
• To a buyer or successor in the event of a business transaction (e.g., merger or sale of assets).
• To fulfill the purpose for which you provided the information.
• For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provided the information or with your consent.
• To comply with court orders, law, or legal process, or to enforce our terms, protect our rights, property, or the safety of others.
No personal information, mobile number, or messaging consent information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
We may also share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information for analytics, business analysis, or marketing purposes.
Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 18, we will take steps to delete such information.
