iMOVE applies the Global Privacy Policy of the parent company, SIRVA, Inc. SIRVA respects your privacy. We have developed this Privacy Policy to inform you of how we protect your information.
Information Covered by this Policy
Our Policy covers all non-public, personal information received by us that may be used to identify you (“Personal Information”). This may include a wide variety of information depending upon the services you are set to receive. For example, this could be name and address information (real estate or household goods moving services); social security, date of birth, or other identification numbers (applications or account setup); banking information (mortgage or expense payment services); and/or passport or driver’s license information (visa & immigration services).
General Data Protection Regulation Information
When we are acting at the direction of a corporate client to provide services to you as part of your relocation or assignment, then the client is responsible as the Data Controller for telling us how your Personal Information should be used and processed. Under the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, SIRVA and its family of companies are Data Processors who receive Personal Information and instructions on how to process that Personal Information from the Data Controllers. Where we act as a Data Controller for services you independently request of us (i.e., where we independently determine how any Personal Information is processed), then we manage your Personal Information according to what you have consented to and the terms of this policy. Whether acting as a Data Controller or a Data Processor, we maintain the privacy of your information and only use, share, transfer or store it as permitted.
How We Obtain Personal Information
SIRVA relies upon many sources of information to understand and meet your needs. We may receive Personal Information about you from:
Regardless of its source, SIRVA will not process Personal Information without your consent. Although we do not receive Personal Information from your browser, we do monitor and store certain types of information about visitors to our website–namely, the type of browser used, the user’s country, whether they were referred to us by a search engine, which of our pages they visit, and how those pages perform on the user’s computer. This helps SIRVA make decisions on how to better design, streamline, and improve performance on our websites. If you do not want this information monitored, you may turn off JavaScript. Please be advised, however, that the websites may not provide full functionality if those settings are turned off. We also use “cookie” technology to improve your experience on our site.

We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children and will destroy such information if it is disclosed to us without proper parental consent.
Information Sharing & Storage
Depending on the services you are set to receive, your information may need to be shared, used, and/or stored globally. Your information will be retained as necessary to provide the services. This may include a period of time after the services are complete in order to comply with our regulatory, audit, contractual, and other legal obligations.
1. Sharing within the SIRVA Family of Companies
To provide you with the full range of financial, relocation, and moving services you may need, SIRVA takes an integrated approach to the services we provide. In order to be able to provide a full range of services for your needs and make recommendations about a variety of the services offered by SIRVA, we may share Personal Information among the SIRVA family of companies.
2. Sharing with non-SIRVA Family Companies
Depending on the type of services you are to receive, SIRVA may work with and provide your information to companies or persons outside of the SIRVA family to provide those services to you. For example, SIRVA may share personal information to:

We maintain agreements with our external suppliers limiting the use of your Personal Information only for the purposes you have intended in providing the information. These suppliers are bound to uphold our standards and procedures regarding privacy under the terms of our agreements with them.
Right to Data Portability & Right to Be Forgotten
SIRVA provides you with a reasonable opportunity to access your own Personal Information, to correct that information if inaccurate, or to have it deleted as appropriate–subject to the exceptions stated below. Reasonable access means, for example, that requests for access are made during normal business hours; that you provide requested identification; and that requests are not excessive in number. If, at any time, SIRVA denies you access to any Personal Information, we will provide you with reasons for denying access and information about how you may make further inquiries. For instance, SIRVA reserves the right to deny access to information related to investigations or potential or actual litigation where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the individual’s privacy, or where the rights of other individuals would be violated.

Data Integrity & Security
SIRVA will make every reasonable effort to keep Personal Information accurate while we are using that information to serve you. SIRVA appreciates your cooperation in maintaining complete and up-to-date Personal Information and will facilitate your efforts in this regard. SIRVA retains Personal Information for as long as we have determined it is needed for the purposes for which it was received or as required by contractual, record keeping, or other legal requirements.
