Information for carriers on real-time cargo monitoring.
WHAT IS CO3?
We’re a visibility platform and location data aggregator focused on European road freight and we’re collaborating with Shippers and Forwarders to improve transport visibility and help their contractors to securely share their data in compliance with GDPR.
HOW I CAN INTEGRATE MY FLEET WITH CO3?
A CO3 customer who wants to connect to a new carrier’s fleet sends an invitation to the carrier. After the carrier’s approval CO3 receives the carrier’s contact data and starts the onboarding process. In the onboarding process, CO3 gathers consent for sharing the data and additional information needed to connect the fleet and make it visible on the CO3 platform. As a carrier you receive access to your own unique account where you can fully control how your data is shared. The CO3 Team provides dedicated support at all stages of the process and are available for personal support.
WHAT IF I AM USING MORE THAN 1 GPS?
The CO3 Platform is handling the process of connection with any kind of telematic provider and system. No matter if you are using a well-known telematic provider, a tailor-made solution or multiple solutions for your fleet, our tech team will ensure the proper integrations. After the integration, your fleet data is unified and visible for you in one place.
WHAT IF I AM COOPERATING WITH SUBCONTRACTORS?
If you are using subcontractors, just let us know. We will propose suitable action plans to onboard them as well. We ensure that your customers will not be able to view who you use as subcontractors – the data passes through your account so you are in control.
Access to the CO3 Platform is completely free of charge for all transport companies for their own fleet.
Join our platform – CO3 is free for all carriers. Share the location of your vehicles with your contractors, for a given time, and without the driver’s personal data. We are integrated with over 380 telematics systems such as Transics, TomTom,
Webfleet and many others. If we aren’t yet integrated with your telematics service
provider, let us know and we will work with them to integrate them to our platform.

DATA SECURITY
WHEN WILL MY LOCATION DATA BE SHARED WITH SHIPPERS OR FORWARDERS?
It depends on you. Once the process of onboarding is finalized we can start sharing the data automatically based on your consent and established way of cooperation with your customers. You can always share the data manually via CO3 Platform. No matter which way you choose, you have always access to information to whom and when the vehicles are shared. You can always pause, resume or change the scope of data sharing on the CO3 platform at any time or with our help by writing to carrier@co3.eu.
WHAT VEHICLE DATA IS SHARED?
- Vehicle position (location & geo coordinates)
- Ignition Status (On/Off)
- Current speed of vehicle
Please note that CO3 does not download or transmit driver data.
HOW WILL THE DATA BE SHARED WITH MY CUSTOMER?
Data can be shared manually or automatically, it depends what kind of collaboration is established with your customer and what you agreed for:
- With tour monitoring, the chosen vehicles are shared automatically with your customer based on transport order ID, licence plate, loading and unloading place and time. You agree to this per customer.
- With time monitoring, the chosen vehicles are shared automatically with your customer based on transport order ID, licence plate and time frame (e.g. between loading and unloading time).
- In the case of permanent monitoring, the chosen vehicles are shared constantly and your role is to set up the time and vehicles which will be visible for your customers 24/7.
HOW SAFE IS DATA SHARING WITH CO3?
Location data is safe with CO3. We are experts in logistics and IT and keeping all parties’ data safe is a top priority. The infrastructure of our platform strictly validates which vehicles should be visible to whom, when and where.
HOW DOES CO3 PROTECT MY DATA PRIVACY?
Data sharing is aligned with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) – it shall mean the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC – a legal act governing the protection of personal data.
