FourKites respects your privacy during your use of the FourKites Carrier Community.

Our Privacy Policy is readily accessible and describes our use of your personal information in connection with the FourKites Carrier Community. Since the Privacy Policy is subject to periodic updates, it is recommended that you periodically review the policy for updates.

Earning Points

From time to time, FourKites may post specifications for earning recognition points based on participation in the FourKites Carrier Community, for example making Contributions to the FourKites Carrier Community, (“Points”). These specifications will be posted or made available through the FourKites Carrier Community. The value of Points associated with each specified activity or challenge will be determined at the sole discretion of FourKites. If you earn the specified Points, you will be acknowledged within the FourKites Carrier Community as having done so. No prizes or consideration, other than recognition within the FourKites Carrier Community, may be awarded.

If you cease to be a registered participant in the FourKites Carrier Community for any reason, you forfeit all Points you have earned and your ability to earn additional Points ends immediately.

The ability to earn Points is void where prohibited by law.

Points are not valid in, and may not be used in combination with, any other program offered by FourKites or third parties, nor are they redeemable in cash or cash equivalents.

FourKites reserves the right to change the Points associated with any activity or challenge at any time. FourKites will be the final arbiter on any issues concerning Points.
