Compliance challenges in logistics
Cross-border data transfers
Freight forwarding and international shipping require transferring personal data across EU borders — each transfer needs a valid legal basis under GDPR Chapter V.
Multi-carrier data sharing
Last-mile delivery involves sharing recipient data with multiple carriers, subcontractors, and platform operators, each requiring their own DPA.
Warehouse surveillance & tracking
GPS fleet tracking, warehouse cameras, and delivery scanning all process personal data — often without adequate privacy notices or legal basis documentation.

Frequently asked questions
Do logistics companies need to comply with GDPR?+
Yes. Any company processing personal data of EU residents must comply with GDPR — this includes shipment tracking data, delivery addresses, driver information, and customer contact details. Logistics companies often process data at scale across borders, making compliance particularly important.
What about GPS fleet tracking and employee privacy?+
GPS fleet tracking constitutes processing of employee personal data under GDPR. You need a clear legal basis (typically legitimate interest or consent), a privacy notice for drivers, and documentation in your records of processing activities. Marsstein auto-generates all required documentation.
How do we handle cross-border data transfers?+
Data transfers outside the EU/EEA require either an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), or Binding Corporate Rules. Marsstein generates transfer impact assessments and maintains your SCC documentation automatically.
Do we need DPAs with every subcontractor?+
Yes. Under GDPR Art. 28, any third party processing personal data on your behalf requires a Data Processing Agreement. For logistics companies working with multiple carriers and warehouse operators, this can mean dozens of DPAs. Marsstein generates and tracks them all.
