Information we collect about you
We may collect Personal Information, including Sensitive Data, and other information. “Personal Information” means individually identifiable information that would allow us to determine the actual identity of, and contact, a specific living person. “Sensitive Data” includes information or content that you provide that may reveal your ethnic origin, nationality, salary, family status etc. At the Assignee Login on our website you will find a list of all the information we hold.

By providing Sensitive Data to us, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of Sensitive Data as permitted by applicable privacy laws. We may collect this information through a website, mobile application, or other online services.

The legal basis for the handling of Personal Data
Through an agreement with your Employer or a Relocation Management Company, we are asked to perform certain services that involve obtaining personal information from you. These may include services such as housing procurement, application for work and residence permits, local registration with official authorities, etc.

The purpose for gathering Personal Data
The purpose of obtaining and processing data is to, on behalf of you and / or our client, perform services in accordance with the agreement mentioned above.

Information from other sources
We may obtain personal information about you from your Employer HR department, business partners and other third parties.

Use of technologies to collect information. We use various technologies to collect information from you.

Mobile device IDs. If you’re using our app, we use mobile device IDs (the unique identifier assigned to a device by the manufacturer), or Advertising IDs (for iOS 6 and later), instead of cookies, to recognize you. We do this to store your preferences and track your use of our app. Unlike cookies, device IDs cannot be deleted, but Advertising IDs can be reset in “Settings” on your iPhone. Ad companies also use device IDs or Advertising IDs to track your use of the app, track the number of ads displayed, measure ad performance and display ads that are more relevant to you. Analytics companies use device IDs to track information about app usage.

How we use the information we collect

  • deliver our services, and manage our business towards your Employer
  • manage your account and provide you with customer support
  • communicate with you by email, post, telephone and/or mobile devices about products or services that your Employer or you ask for
  • coordinate maintenance, repairs, cleaning or other services in your home

In all circumstances, we may perform these services directly or use a third-party vendor to perform these functions on our behalf who will be obligated to use your personal information only to perform services for us.

With whom we share your information
Official Authorities. In connection with our services we may share personal- and sensitive information with local or national authorities. We also may share such information with Embassies and other authorities abroad.
