LEGAL · SHEET 1/1

Data Processing Agreement.

SIGNED BEFORE ACCESS

A plain-English summary of our standard DPA. The executed version — signed before any document changes hands — is the binding instrument.

LAST REVISED — JULY 2026 · 07 CLAUSES

THE ROLES

You are the controller — the documents, the customers, and the rates are yours. PortMark is the processor: we handle that data only on your written instructions, only for the workflows you’ve engaged, and for nothing else.


SCOPE OF PROCESSING

Shipping documents — commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading and AWBs, arrival notices, ISF data — and the TMS records they become. Processing means extraction, draft entry, status lookups, and deadline tracking. Your data is never used for any other purpose.


SUBPROCESSORS

Document processing runs on enterprise AI APIs under commercial no-training terms — your documents never train public AI models. The current subprocessor list ships with the executed DPA, and we give written notice before it changes.


SECURITY MEASURES

Encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest. Least-privilege access on named accounts, read-only where possible, revocable in one click, with an access log kept. Operator access is per-client, under confidentiality terms.


BREACH NOTICE

If an incident touches your data, you hear it from us first — within 24 hours, in writing, with what happened, what’s affected, and what we’re doing about it.


DELETION & RETURN

Retention runs on your schedule. On termination, your data is returned or deleted on your instruction and purged post-engagement — we don’t keep a shadow archive.


EXECUTION

The executed DPA is signed before any access is granted — Day 0 of the 14-Day Pilot, alongside the NDA. This page is the summary; the signed document is the one that binds.
