1. Overview & Public Records

TransportTrace ("we", "us", or "our") provides a regulatory verification platform that displays publicly available records from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and United States Department of Transportation (USDOT). Commercial motor carrier census, safety, licensing, and insurance filings displayed on this site are matters of public record under federal law (5 U.S.C. 552).

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to deliver and protect our services:

• Search queries entered into our lookup tools (e.g. USDOT numbers, MC numbers, company names).
• Anonymous usage analytics such as page views, browser type, and diagnostic response times.
• Contact details voluntarily submitted via our business claim or correction request forms.

3. How We Use Information

We use collected data solely to execute real-time FMCSA queries, improve system performance, prevent abusive automated traffic, and fulfill customer support requests. We do not sell or rent personal visitor information to third parties.

4. Third-Party Services & Links

Our website contains outbound links to official federal websites (such as safer.fmcsa.dot.gov and li-public.fmcsa.dot.gov). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external government or commercial websites.
