The Controller is entitled to attach conditions to any such consent.\n\nThe Controller hereby gives permission for the involvement of sub-processors, assuming these sub-processors are always pre- registered to the Data Controller.\n\nIf there are any changes concerning additions to or replacements of these sub-processors during the term of the Processing Agreement, the Processor will notify the Controller of this beforehand in writing, thus enabling the Controller to object to these changes. If the Controller objects [the change will not take place\/the Controller will be authorized to terminate the Processing Agreement in whole or in part during which the Processor will continue to perform the services in the agreed manner without implementing the change.].\n\nThe processor guarantees that any third parties it engages will be bound by a written agreement to fulfill all obligations under this Data Processing Agreement. The engagement of third parties does not affect the full liability of the Processor for all obligations under this Processor Agreement.\n\nThe Processor guarantees that employees and other persons authorized by it to process the Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.\n\nThe Processor secures the Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of article 32 GDPR.\n\nThe Processor shall, taking into account the nature of the processing, assist the Controller by appropriate technical and organizational measures, in so far as this is possible, for the fulfilment of the Controller\u2019s obligation to respond to requests for exercising the data subject\u2019s rights laid down in Chapter III of GDPR.\n\nAfter the end of the provision of the services, the Processor will, at the choice of the Controller, delete or return all Personal Data to the Controller, unless Union or Member State law requires storage of the Personal Data.\n\nThe Processor shall make available to the Controller all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations laid down in the Data Processing Agreement, and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by the Controller or another auditor mandated by the Controller.\n\nThe Processor will immediately inform the Processing Officer if, in his opinion, an instruction violates this Regulation or other EU or Member State data protection provisions.\n\nThe processor informs the Controller without delay, and no later than 24 hours, after the Processor (or any person acting or engaged by it or a sub-processor) becomes aware of any incident that may (possibly) be regarded as  data breach as referred to in Article 4 paragraph 12 GDPR.\n\nThe Processing Officer will provide the Processing Officer with all information and cooperation requested by the Processing Officer to enable the Processing Officer to assess the incident and to take the necessary measures, including notifying the competent authorities (in particular the Dutch Data Protection Authority) and informing of natural persons involved.\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sla_accept\"><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"sla_2\"><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-acceptance\"><span class=\"wpcf7-list-item\"><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"sla_2\" value=\"1\" id=\"sla_2\" aria-invalid=\"false\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><label for=\"sla_2\">The undersigned hereby declares to fully accept the terms & conditions of chapter 2:<br>  Data Processing Agreement (version 1.0 01-11-2018)<\/label><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"item\">\n<div class=\"title\">Service Chapter <span class=\"open\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"sla_body\">\n<h3 style=\"margin: 0;\"><strong>Service Chapter<\/strong><\/h3>(version 1.2 09-05-2018)\n\n<strong>The service chapter is our standard for all other moves, unless other instructions and\/or documents apply.<\/strong>\n<br>\n<h3><strong>Explanation of words used:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<strong>PMQ*<\/strong>                                                  <strong>P<\/strong>ost <strong>M<\/strong>ove <strong>Q<\/strong>uestionnaire : Form to be completed and signed by client for either the origin (10 questions) and\/or destination (5 questions) part of the move. <strong><em><u>See specimen.<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\n\n<strong>FCF*                                                           F<\/strong>inal<strong> C<\/strong>ontrol<strong> F<\/strong>orm: Form on specifics of the move; to be completed by crew leader and to be signed by client and crew leader. <strong><em><u>See specimen.<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\n\n<strong>Checklist Service Chapter *          <\/strong>Checklist to be completed and signed by crew leader. <strong><em><u>See specimen.<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\n\n*These forms are mandatory for accepting and paying the invoice for your services.\n\n\n<br>\n<h3><strong>Origin<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<strong>Survey<\/strong>\nThe moving company will always visit the client in the residence to perform a survey.\n\nThe surveyor will inform the client on the rules and regulations, determine the volume and possible special requirements, fill out the survey sheet, calculate the volume and have the client and the surveyor sign the survey sheet for the calculated volume.

If the client has special\/original cartons for appliances and the mover is sure these boxes are fit for use, the movers will use these cartons for packing.\n\nIf the client has packed cartons or items himself please ask client to write the contents on the package\/carton. The packer will state this content on the inventory and note \u201cPBO\u201d as exception <em>(e.g. Books    PBO,  Clothing     PBO  etc.). <\/em>\n\nBreakable \/ fragile and electrical items that are Packed By Owner are to be checked by the crew to verify if the packing is sufficient for the forthcoming door to door transport. If not, the goods should be repacked. If client refuses to show the packed items and\/or refuses repacking, the goods are not to be loaded and the coordinator in the office is to be informed.\n\nThe packing material and\/or stickers used for numbering the items should not, in any way, damage the articles. The mover has to make sure that the stickers with numbers will stay on the packed items, so the delivery company can check the inventory list at destination.\n\n<strong>Final Control Form (FCF)<\/strong>\nThe crew leader will check the residence prior to the start of packing for any existing physical damages, will notify the client if any and report these on the Final Control Form. The crew leader will take the same action after the final check \/ walk through of the residence once packing and loading is completed.\n\nHave the client sign for both situations on the FCF.\n\n<strong>(<em><u>Take pictures of the physical damage that was existing and that occurred during packing).<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\n\n\n<strong>Remote controls, wires, assembly-items, keys, screws and bolts etc.<\/strong>\nThrough history finding the above is one of the major reasons for disappointment, both to the client as well as the moving crew arranging delivery of a shipment.\n\nThe client wants items to be assembled upon delivery and the crew wants to perform a perfect job.\n\nTo avoid discussions and an endless search for these items you are <u>instructed<\/u> to have your packers use a <strong><u>dedicated box<\/u> <\/strong>for the items mentioned above.\n\nThe specific materials will have to be packed and marked separately mentioning to which item they belong and the corresponding item number(s) on the inventory list.\n\n<em>(e.g. remote TV Master bedroom # 33; assembly items oak cabinet living room # 54-62; keys oak cabinet living room #54-62, assembly items TV cabinet study #112-116). <\/em>\n\nThis dedicated box will have to be marked as <strong>#1, assembly-items<\/strong>, <strong>remote\u2019s etc.<\/strong> on the inventory list.\n\n<em>If a remote is co loaded in the same box with TV or stereo etc. mention <u>TV <strong>+<\/strong> remote, stereo <strong>+<\/strong> remote<\/u>  on the inventory.<\/em>\n\nYou are to load the box <strong>#1, assembly-items, remote\u2019s etc. <\/strong>close to the doors of the transport unit, so the delivery crew will have easy access and can start assembling while unloading (if requested).\n\n<strong>Disassembly<\/strong>\nAll items that are to be shipped and need to be disassembled due to their size, shape or to save space, will have to be re-assembled by the moving crew at destination.\n\nThe parts will have to be mentioned separately on the inventory with a clear description of the actual part (e.g. Right-hand side of cabinet, Middle part of cabinet, top part of cabinet). The assembly items, keys, screws etc. will have to be packed and stowed in the dedicated box \u201c#1 assembly items\u201d.\n\n<strong>Packing materials<\/strong>\nThe packing materials used should be new, clean and friendly to our environment.

Are partners and their employees reliable? To monitor all these matters, control is necessary. We ask our partners to demonstrate that regulations are being complied with and that conditions are met. We do this by identifying their employees, checking the payment of social insurance contributions and taxes, checking licenses and standards.\n\nCHAIN LIABILITY\nThe hirer's liability scheme aims to prevent lenders from abusing the payroll taxes and taxes.\n\nThe purpose of the chain liability arrangement is to prevent contractors and subcontractors from abusing the outsourcing of the work in the payment of payroll taxes.\n\nFIDI ANTI-BRIBERY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION\nThe International Federation of International Moving Companies, FIDI sets the highest quality standards for its members.
