1. Agreement and eligibility
These Terms govern the High Speed Freight websites, mobile or web applications, dispatch tools, load-opportunity feeds, bidding features, and related services (the “Platform”). By creating an account, checking an acceptance box, or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy.
You must be at least 18 years old and authorized to act for the carrier or business connected to your account. If you use the Platform for a company, both you and that company are responsible for compliance.
2. What the Platform does
The Platform helps authorized motor carriers, owner-operators, drivers, and dispatch teams review load opportunities obtained through authorized sources and transmit user-selected bids or responses. High Speed does not promise that any load will remain available, that a bid will be accepted, or that a shipment will be profitable.
A bid is an offer from the carrier user. A load is not booked until the applicable broker, shipper, load board, or other authorized source issues confirmation and the carrier accepts the governing rate confirmation or transportation agreement.
3. Carrier and user responsibilities
You are responsible for accurate account, equipment, availability, location, authority, and bid information. The carrier using the Platform must maintain all required FMCSA or state authority, insurance, registrations, permits, safety qualifications, vehicle fitness, cargo securement, and qualified drivers.
You may place bids only for a carrier account you are authorized to represent. You must review the origin, destination, commodity, dimensions, weight, schedule, rate, accessorials, insurance requirements, and all third-party terms before bidding or accepting a load.
4. Dispatch authority and regulatory compliance
When High Speed provides dispatch support for another carrier, the relationship must be covered by a separate written dispatch or service agreement and operated within applicable authority. These Terms do not create broker authority, expand a carrier’s authority, or replace any agreement required by FMCSA rules.
Each carrier user decides whether to pursue a load for its own authorized carrier account and selects any bid it submits. The Platform does not accept freight for later placement with an unidentified carrier or authorize High Speed to allocate a shipment among carriers without the applicable carrier’s direction.
Unless a separately authorized role and written agreement expressly apply, High Speed does not hold itself out as a property broker or accept compensation from a broker or factoring company for dispatch services.
Users may not arrange transportation outside their authority, misidentify the performing carrier, re-broker or double-broker a load without express lawful authorization, conceal a carrier substitution, or engage in conduct that requires authority the responsible party does not hold.
5. Third-party load boards and services
Load boards, brokers, shippers, mapping tools, payment services, and other third parties are independent from High Speed. Their own contracts, privacy notices, access rules, fees, and dispute procedures apply. Load data may be displayed or transmitted only through access authorized by the relevant provider.
You may not share third-party credentials, scrape or bulk-copy listings, bypass access controls, redistribute confidential load data, or use the Platform in a way that violates a load board’s or broker’s terms. High Speed may remove an integration or listing when access rights are uncertain or revoked.
6. Bids, confirmations, and transportation performance
You authorize the Platform to transmit the bid, contact details, carrier information, and equipment information you choose to submit. You remain responsible for the bid and for promptly correcting mistakes. High Speed is not responsible for changes made by a third party after transmission.
The confirmed carrier—not the Platform—is responsible for pickup, delivery, cargo care, hours-of-service compliance, safe operation, documents, claims, taxes, tolls, fuel, and other transportation obligations unless a signed agreement expressly states otherwise.
7. Safe and acceptable use
Do not type, review loads, or place bids while driving. Use the Platform only when lawfully parked or through a legally permitted hands-free or dispatch workflow.
You may not submit false information or bids, impersonate another carrier, interfere with the Platform, introduce malicious code, probe security, automate access without written permission, harvest personal data, abuse support channels, or use load information for fraud, double brokerage, cargo theft, or any unlawful purpose.
8. Accounts, fees, and business relationship
You are responsible for account security and all actions taken through your credentials. Notify High Speed promptly about suspected unauthorized access. Any dispatch fees, subscription charges, commissions, payment terms, or exclusivity obligations must appear in a separate written service agreement or order.
Platform access alone does not create employment, a partnership, joint venture, franchise, or exclusive agency relationship. Owner-operators and carriers remain independent businesses except to the extent a separate signed agreement and applicable law provide otherwise.
9. Platform ownership and limited license
High Speed and its licensors own the Platform, software, interface, design, documentation, trademarks, and original compilations, excluding user content and third-party load data. Subject to these Terms, High Speed grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Platform only for authorized business purposes.
You may not copy, sell, sublicense, publicly redistribute, reverse engineer, decompile, create derivative products from, circumvent protections for, use to train another system on, or automate access to the Platform except as expressly permitted by law or written authorization. You retain rights in content you submit and grant High Speed the limited rights needed to host, secure, transmit, and process it to provide the Platform and meet legal obligations.
10. Privacy and communications
Our Privacy Policy explains how Platform data is handled. You authorize operational electronic communications about accounts, bids, loads, security, and support. Marketing messages, if offered, require any consent mandated by law and may be opted out of separately.
11. Availability and disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” High Speed disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted service, and accuracy of third-party load data. High Speed does not guarantee load awards, rates, payment by third parties, broker creditworthiness, delivery windows, or continuous access.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, High Speed will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages; lost profits or opportunities; cargo loss; bodily injury caused by transportation operations; missed loads; detention; chargebacks; third-party payment failures; or conduct of a load board, broker, shipper, carrier, or driver.
High Speed’s total Platform-related liability will not exceed the greater of $100 or the fees you paid directly to High Speed for Platform access during the six months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any liability that cannot legally be limited.
13. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold High Speed and its personnel harmless from third-party claims, losses, penalties, and reasonable costs arising from your bids, transportation operations, cargo, drivers, authority or insurance failures, unlawful conduct, misuse of third-party data, or breach of these Terms.
14. Suspension and termination
High Speed may restrict or terminate access to protect users or freight, comply with law or third-party requirements, investigate suspected fraud, address unpaid fees under a separate agreement, or enforce these Terms. You may stop using the Platform at any time, but existing load, payment, record-retention, and contractual obligations survive.
15. Governing law and general terms
These Terms are governed by Ohio law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any controlling signed agreement, disputes must be brought in the state or federal courts serving Belmont County, Ohio, and the parties consent to those courts. If a provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
A signed carrier, dispatch, rate, or load agreement controls over these Terms for its specific subject matter. High Speed may update these Terms prospectively and will post a new effective date; material changes may require renewed acceptance.
