Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 6, 2026

Overview

ShipSourced Inc. ("we", "us", "our") provides third-party logistics (3PL), product sourcing, and order fulfillment services. This policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you interact with us through our website at shipsourcedcenter.com, our client portal, the ShipSourced app for Shopify, our messaging channels (Facebook Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp), or any other part of our service.

Information We Collect

From merchants and prospective clients:

  • Account details: name, email, phone number, company information
  • Billing information and payment records
  • Store and sales-channel data you connect to our platform (orders, products, SKUs, inventory)
  • Messages you send us and contact information you provide

From merchants' customers (order recipients):

  • Name, shipping address, phone number, and email associated with orders we are asked to fulfill
  • Order contents (items, quantities) needed to pick, pack, and ship

We receive recipient information solely so we can fulfill and deliver orders on the merchant's behalf. We act as a service provider (processor) for this data; the merchant remains the data controller.

The ShipSourced App for Shopify

When a merchant installs the ShipSourced app on their Shopify store, the app accesses order and fulfillment data through Shopify's APIs so that orders route to our warehouses, tracking numbers post back to the store, and the merchant can see fulfillment costs. Specifically, the app:

  • Receives fulfillment orders (recipient name, address, phone, items) assigned to the ShipSourced fulfillment location
  • Writes tracking and fulfillment status back to the merchant's orders
  • Displays fulfillment billing data to the merchant inside the app

We use this data only to provide fulfillment services. We do not use it for advertising, do not sell it, and do not share it except as needed to deliver packages (see "Sharing" below). We honor all of Shopify's mandatory privacy webhooks: when we receive a customer data request we provide the stored data; when we receive a customer redaction request we delete or anonymize that customer's personal information; and when a store uninstalls the app we delete the store's data within the timeframes Shopify requires, except where retention is legally required (e.g., tax and shipping records).

How We Use Information

  • Fulfill, ship, and track orders, including customs documentation for international shipments
  • Provide sourcing, warehousing, and billing services and generate invoices
  • Respond to inquiries and provide customer support
  • Operate, secure, and improve our platform
  • Comply with legal, tax, and customs obligations

Sharing

We share information only as needed to provide our services:

  • Shipping carriers (e.g., UPS, DHL, USPS and regional carriers) receive recipient name, address, and phone to deliver packages
  • Customs authorities receive shipment details required by law for international orders
  • Service providers that host our infrastructure or process payments, bound by confidentiality obligations
  • Authorities where required by law

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

Data Retention

We retain order and shipment records for as long as needed to provide our services and to meet legal, tax, customs, and dispute-resolution obligations. Personal information that is no longer required is deleted or anonymized. Merchants can request deletion of their data at any time (see "Your Rights").

Security

All data is transmitted over encrypted connections (TLS). Access to personal information is limited to authorized team members who need it to perform fulfillment and support work. We maintain access controls, audit logging, and dedicated per-integration credentials across our systems.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live (including under GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. If you are a merchant's customer, the merchant you purchased from is the data controller — contact them first, and we will support their response. You can also contact us directly using the details below, and we will respond within the timeframes required by law.

International Transfers

We operate warehouses and sourcing operations in the United States and China. Order information may be processed in either region depending on where an order is fulfilled, always subject to this policy.

Third-Party Platforms

When you message us through Facebook Messenger, Instagram, or WhatsApp, or connect a store hosted by Shopify or another platform, those platforms have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies as well.

Children

Our services are for businesses and are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision; material changes will be highlighted on this page.
