Concerns over the security of data shared between digital platforms and their customers has led to shipper and forwarder associations calling for higher standards in data protection.
The Global Shippers Forum and the international federation of freight forwarders, FIATA, today issued a joint charter for the protection of shipper and forwarder data.
The charter lays out the rules and regulations shippers and forwarders should be aware of to ensure their data is protected when using independent transport operators’ platforms.
