Privacy Policy

Last Updated July 2022


At Landmark Global we know that you care about protecting your personal information, which is why we work to ensure that any information you share by visiting this site or using our services is handled in an ethical, transparent manner. The following notice outlines the practices followed by Landmark Global Inc for collecting, using, storing and disclosing your information.

Policy Scope and Consent

This policy applies to all sites and applications managed by Landmark Global Inc where this notice appears in the page footer, regardless of how the site or application is accessed. By visiting a Landmark Global site or using one of Landmark Global’s services, you are accepting the practices and terms described in this policy.

External sites and services

Landmark Global’s sites and services may include links to external websites when relevant. This notice only covers Landmark Global’s sites and services, so if you visit external links from our site, please refer to the privacy policy belonging to the company in question to confirm the safety of your data.

Collection and use of personal information

Personal data definition

The terms “personal data” and “personal information” used in this notice describe information that can be used to identify or reasonably link to an individual, such as full name, mailing address, email address, business contact information, and IP address, or other identifying computer/browser information. Data that has been anonymized, and therefore can no longer be used to identify an individual, is not considered personal data by Landmark.

What data do we collect, and why?

Landmark Global collects various types of personal information from users within and outside the United States, including the EU, as required for our shipping operations, and in other cases, to improve your experience using our sites and services. This may include automatic/indirect data (e.g., consumer address for shipment delivery) and given/direct data (e.g., email for newsletter sign-up).

Landmark does not sell or lease your personal data to third-parties for any reason. Landmark will not share or trade your personal data for promotional purposes, unless specifically directed or approved by the data owner.

Below we outline how we collect and use different categories of data and the relevant user groups, including consumers, clients, suppliers and other business partners.

Information you provide directly to Landmark

Landmark will store information you enter voluntarily on this site, or provide directly in any other way. The means with which we may gather information from you directly include inquiry and contact forms and occasional questionnaires/surveys.

The personal information in this category may include:

  • Contact information (full name, email address, phone number)
  • Company name
  • Order number

Purpose and Use

Landmark Global may collect and use information via our sites to provide you with requested information, as well as help us design and deliver better services to our clients. Inquiry forms are provided for users who are interested in or have questions about our services, and the questions asked are designed to help us guide you to the solutions best suited to your needs. We also offer the option to receive updates and information about our services by providing your name and email on our site. Landmark may also occasionally distribute surveys in order to gauge customer satisfaction and experience, and ultimately improve the quality of our services. Completion of any forms or questionnaires is entirely voluntary, although may be required to submit certain inquiries with our company.

This data is not shared with external third-parties, and you can request to stop receiving marketing information from Landmark at any time. If you wish to opt-out of marketing-based communication, please email privacy@landmarkglobal.com, or select ‘Unsubscribe’ on a relevant email.
