Privacy policy

The short version

• The freight calculator runs in your browser. Shipment values are not sent to us or stored in an account.
• There are no user accounts, no newsletter, and no email capture.
• There are no analytics scripts and no advertising scripts at launch.
• We do not set cookies. Fonts are self-hosted, so they are not requested from Google or another font CDN.
• A share link encodes the shipment in the URL. Anyone with the link can read it.

Calculator data

Dimensions, weights, quantities, labels, and unit selections are processed locally in your browser. They are not transmitted to a FreightClassHub server, written to a database, or associated with an account. Closing or reloading the page clears the working state unless you save a share link.

The calculator does not use local storage or cookies to remember your shipment. It does not use a third-party calculator API.

Share links

The “Share link” action encodes the shipment into the URL’s query string so the result can be reopened without a database. The encoded values are readable by anyone who has the link, and they may appear in browser history, chat logs, or email. When you open a share link, the full URL is sent to the hosting provider as part of the page request and may appear in server logs. Do not share a link if the shipment details are confidential.

Server logs

Like most websites, the hosting provider may process standard request data — IP address, user agent, requested URL, referrer, and timestamp — to deliver pages, prevent abuse, and diagnose errors. We do not combine those logs with calculator values or use them to build a profile. Retention is governed by the hosting provider’s configuration and terms.

Analytics and advertising

There are no analytics or advertising scripts at launch. If that changes, this policy will be updated before the change goes live, and the site will describe what is collected and how to opt out where required.

Cookies and similar technology

FreightClassHub does not set cookies. The site does not use pixels, fingerprinting, or cross-site tracking. Your browser or hosting provider may retain standard technical logs as described above.

Email

If you email hello@freightclasshub.com, we receive your email address, message, and any attachments you choose to send. We use them to reply and, where relevant, to investigate a correction. We do not add you to a marketing list or sell your address.

External links

Guides and pages link to the NMFTA, carriers, and other reference sites. Those sites have their own privacy policies. Once you follow an external link, this policy no longer applies.

Children

The site is a business reference tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices

Because the calculator does not create an account or send shipment data to us, there is no profile to delete. If you have emailed us and want the message removed from our inbox, reply to the thread or send a new message to the address above and we will delete it where we are not required to retain it.

Changes to this policy

If the site adds analytics, advertising, accounts, or a server-side feature, this policy will be updated and the effective date will change. Material changes will be described on this page.
