Each computer and device that connects to the FedEx Digital Platforms is assigned a unique number, an IP address, country/language, date/timestamp, screen size, meta-tags, and FedEx first party cookie and third party cookies.
3. Does FedEx ask for Personal Information?
Several areas of the FedEx Digital Platforms, including fedex.com, may ask for Personal Information. They currently include: Online Account Registration, features of Manage My Account, and registration pages for FedEx Ship Manager at fedex.com, FedEx Global Trade Manager, FedEx Return Manager, and FedEx InSight. This list may be expanded without notice. In the event that it is expanded, additional information may be required.
Our policy is not to give, sell or otherwise distribute the Personal Information collected to third parties outside of FedEx (unless required by law) to allow such third parties to conduct their own marketing activities for their own benefit; provided, however, in some cases we may use suppliers to assist us in collecting, using or otherwise processing for our benefit the information obtained for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including market research. Our practice is to require our suppliers to conduct such activities consistent with this policy and our requirements. In addition, your Personal Information may be combined with non-personal information to customize your FedEx experience on The FedEx Digital Platforms and on third party sites.
4. How does SenseAware work and what data does FedEx collect through SenseAware?
5. What happens when I leave a Digital Platform to visit a FedEx linked Web site?
A cookie is a series of data characters that, when programmed into a web site, is placed by the web server into the browser's application folder on your computer. Once placed onto your machine, the cookie will allow the FedEx Digital Platforms to "recognize" your computer or mobile device.
A cookie may also be combined with a web beacon, which is an invisible image with a line of code which is placed within an email message or on a web page. Web beacons inform FedEx if an intended recipient can receive email in an HTML format or only as a text message, whether the email message has been open or opened multiple times, and if a display ad has been viewed or clicked through. This information is used to serve customized messaging to visitors to the FedEx Digital Platforms. Web beacons do not create, modify or delete files on a user's machine. Since they are not executable, they cannot provide means for the delivery of dangerous content such as malware or viruses. These technologies allow FedEx to receive and store certain information when you visit a FedEx Digital Platform through a computer or mobile device. Device Data captured through these technologies may include the geo-location of your computer or mobile device, information about the specific pages you viewed while on the site, the sequencing and duration of your views on those pages, the type of computer or mobile hardware you used to access the site, and the IP address of the hardware.
In addition to the information provided above, cookies are used to achieve several goals. The first is to provide FedEx with the capability to personalize information for visitors to the FedEx Digital Platforms. Cookies can also help us recognize you as a previous visitor and remember any preferences that may have been set when you previously visited our Web site using the same browser.
In some instances, cookies are used to allow FedEx the opportunity to associate individual customers with their information profiles. For example, through the use of cookies, fedex.com Login can "remember" your user ID when you login to FedEx Ship Manager at fedex.com on your computer. Personal Information may also be combined with Device Data to provide you with more customized content on the FedEx Digital Platforms and advertisements on other sites across the Internet. For example, when you access a page on the FedEx Digital Platforms, a cookie is automatically set by us, or our service providers to recognize your browser as you navigate on the Internet and to present you with information and advertising based on your apparent interests and about FedEx. Please see the advertising section below for more information about our online advertising practices and your choices. You can also learn more about how we use your Personal Information when you register with fedex.com. Where we combine Device Data and Personal Information, we treat all such data as Personal Information.
6. What are cookies and web beacons, and how does FedEx use them?
Certain components of the FedEx Digital Platforms consist of or include products and services hosted by third-party businesses. When you access one of these third-party components, the only information transferred to the third-party is the fact that you came from a FedEx Digital Platform. This practice allows the third-party to monitor its own website traffic, but does not provide them with any information about you, other than as stated above. Once you leave a FedEx Digital Platform, the third-party may monitor its own website traffic and may install other cookies or web beacons in order to collect information about you. FedEx is not responsible or liable for the independent activities or privacy policies at third-party sites. You should consult the privacy policies and other terms and conditions at those sites to determine how your information may be used and the practices of those third party sites.
7. Can cookies be removed from my hard drive?
Yes, cookies can be removed from your hard drive. Also, depending on what type of web browser and what browser version you are using, you may be able to change the properties on your cookie file so that cookies are not used or saved. Please check with your browser provider for more information on removing cookies. Please note that if you refuse to accept cookies, you may not be able to access many of the tools offered on or through the FedEx Digital Platforms.
8. Does FedEx use my Personal Information for advertising?
Yes. FedEx combines Personal Information that we obtain from registrations with Device Data gathered through cookies and other technologies about your searches and other activities on the FedEx Digital Platforms. We may also receive similar non-personal information from third party advertisers or other sources. We use this information for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy. As noted above, where we combine Device Data and other information with Personal Information, we treat all such data as Personal Information.
9. Does FedEx use advertising companies to serve ads on third party Internet sites?
Yes, FedEx uses select advertising companies to serve relevant FedEx ads on third party Internet sites. Currently FedEx uses Google (and its affiliates like DoubleClick), Adobe, Accuen, Salesforce, and Facebook. FedEx does not provide any Personal Information to these advertising companies to allow them to use such data for their own purposes, or for the benefit of any other party. These advertising companies may, however, place their own cookies or third party cookies on your browser to personalize your FedEx related experience on third party sites.
You can choose not to allow these advertising companies to use their cookies to serve you ads on third party Internet sites. Several of these companies are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”). You can opt-out of ad targeting from DAA member companies at a single location. To learn more, please click here.
