By accessing this website or using the services of D Leader Logistics ("D Leader Logistics," "we," or "us"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.
D Leader Logistics provides dispatch, logistics coordination, and business-growth support services for owner-operators and small fleets. We assist with finding freight opportunities, negotiating rates, managing dispatch operations, reducing deadhead, paperwork, fleet expansion, driver recruiting, and marketing support.
Important: D Leader Logistics is not a motor carrier, freight broker, or shipper. We do not operate commercial motor vehicles, take possession of freight, or act as the carrier of record. We provide dispatch and business-support services to independent carriers and owner-operators who maintain their own operating authority.
All rates, lanes, and freight opportunities discussed are targets, estimates, or examples only and are not guaranteed. Actual rates depend on market conditions, broker and shipper availability, lane demand, equipment type, and other factors outside our control. We do not guarantee any specific rate per mile, revenue amount, load volume, or profitability.
Carriers and owner-operators are responsible for maintaining their own operating authority, insurance, equipment, and compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, including DOT and FMCSA requirements. D Leader Logistics does not assume responsibility for a carrier's compliance, safety performance, or operational decisions.
Nothing in these Terms creates an employment, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between you and D Leader Logistics. You engage our services as an independent contractor. You retain full control over the operation of your equipment, the acceptance or rejection of any load, and all operational, safety, and compliance decisions. You are responsible for your own taxes, licenses, insurance, and employees.
When you engage our dispatch services, you authorize D Leader Logistics to act as your limited dispatch representative for the sole purpose of locating, negotiating, and tendering freight opportunities on your behalf. This authorization is limited to dispatch coordination and does not authorize us to bind you to any load, contract, or obligation without your express approval. You may revoke this authorization at any time in accordance with the termination provisions below.
Any fees for our dispatch and business-support services will be disclosed and agreed upon before services begin. Unless otherwise stated in a separate written agreement, our dispatch fee is typically calculated as a percentage of the gross revenue of loads we dispatch for you. You are responsible for payment of fees for loads booked through our services regardless of whether the load is ultimately completed, except where a load is cancelled through no fault of your own. Invoices are due within the timeframe stated on the invoice; late payments may result in suspension of services.
Either party may terminate this service relationship at any time with written notice. Upon termination, you remain responsible for any fees owed on loads dispatched prior to the termination date. We may suspend or terminate services immediately if you engage in fraud, misrepresentation, unsafe operation, or any conduct that exposes us or our partners to legal or reputational risk. Termination does not relieve either party of obligations that accrued before the termination date.
D Leader Logistics is an independent dispatch service and is not a party to any broker-carrier agreement. The contractual relationship for any load exists solely between you (the carrier) and the broker or shipper. We facilitate communication and paperwork but are not responsible for a broker's or shipper's payment, creditworthiness, conduct, or failure to honor a rate confirmation. You are encouraged to verify broker credit and terms before accepting any load.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless D Leader Logistics and its affiliates from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your operation of motor vehicles, your performance or non-performance of any load, your failure to maintain required authority or insurance, or your breach of these Terms. This indemnification survives termination of our service relationship.
D Leader Logistics provides services on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use of our services, including lost revenue, missed loads, or business outcomes. Our total liability for any claim arising from these Terms or our services is limited to the fees you paid us in the three (3) months preceding the claim.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Pennsylvania for any dispute arising from these Terms or our services.
The parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute through informal negotiation before initiating formal proceedings. Any dispute that cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days of written notice shall be submitted to binding arbitration administered in Pennsylvania under the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
You agree that electronic signatures, agreements, and records submitted through our forms have the same legal validity and enforceability as handwritten signatures and paper documents.
Operational communications. By providing your contact information and engaging our services, you consent to receive electronic communications from us that are necessary to provide the services you requested — such as dispatch coordination, load details, rate confirmations, and account-related notices. These operational communications may be sent by email, phone, or text message as needed to conduct your business with us.
Marketing communications. We will not send marketing or promotional messages — including promotional texts or emails — without your separate, affirmative consent. Where required by applicable law (including the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and similar rules), we obtain that consent through the specific opt-in provided on the relevant form, not through these Terms. You may withdraw consent to marketing communications at any time by replying STOP to a text message, using the unsubscribe link in an email, or contacting us at the email or phone below. Opting out of marketing messages does not affect operational communications related to active services.
Our collection, use, and protection of your information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. We do not request sensitive financial documents such as W-9s or voided checks through public forms; such documents are collected only through a secure channel during formal onboarding.
You agree that information submitted through our forms is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the authority to provide it. You are responsible for keeping your contact and carrier details current.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
