Provider Identity Verification Policy
Last Updated: March 15, 2025
This Provider Identity Verification Policy is published by Muvr Technologies, Inc. and its affiliates (“Muvr,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and applies to Providers (including Movers, Haulers, and Couriers) who access or use Provider features through our websites, mobile applications, and related services (the “Platform”) and perform services arranged through the Platform (“Services”).
This policy explains identity verification requirements, what information may be collected, how verification works, when re-verification may occur, and what happens if verification fails. This policy supports safety, fraud prevention, legal compliance, and Platform integrity. It supplements the Provider Platform Agreement (if published), Background Check and Screening Policy, Anti Fraud Policy, Payment, Payouts, Holds, and Deductions Policy, and Deactivation and Appeals Policy.
1) Core principles
- Providers must be who they claim to be.
- Identity verification is required to protect customers, Providers, and the Platform from fraud and account misuse.
- Verification methods may vary by jurisdiction, role, and risk profile.
- We may use third-party verification vendors.
- Failure to complete verification may result in inability to access Provider features or receive payouts.
2) What identity verification may include
Depending on role, jurisdiction, and legal requirements, identity verification may include:
- legal name, date of birth, and contact verification
- government-issued ID capture and verification (driver’s license, passport, state ID)
- selfie/liveness checks (photo or video to confirm the person is present)
- comparison of selfie to ID photo (where supported)
- address verification or proof of residence (where permitted)
- tax identity verification (for example, W-9 information, where applicable)
- business verification for business Providers (business registration, EIN, authorized signer verification)
- device, phone, and email verification
- fraud and risk checks to prevent synthetic identity and account takeover
We do not guarantee that every Provider will go through the same steps.
3) When verification is required
Verification may be required:
- during onboarding before activation
- before enabling certain service categories or higher-risk jobs
- before enabling instant payouts or certain payout methods
- periodically during Provider use of the Platform
- when suspicious activity is detected
- after account recovery or device changes
- after reports of account sharing, impersonation, or fraud
- when required by law, partners, or payment processors
4) Provider obligations
Providers must:
- provide accurate, complete, and truthful information
- use their own identity and documents (no borrowed, altered, or fake documents)
- keep account information current
- complete verification steps promptly when requested
- cooperate with reasonable follow-up verification requests
Identity misrepresentation is a serious violation and may result in permanent deactivation.
5) Account sharing and unauthorized access prohibited
Providers may not:
- share accounts, credentials, or devices used to access Provider features in a way that allows another person to perform services under their identity
- allow anyone else to accept or perform jobs using their account
- sell, rent, or transfer their account
- use another person’s account
If the Platform detects or suspects account sharing or impersonation, we may immediately suspend access and initiate investigation.
6) Verification failures and mismatches
Verification may fail for reasons including:
- ID document cannot be validated
- selfie/liveness checks do not match
- information is inconsistent across records
- suspected synthetic identity, stolen identity, or fraud signals
- duplicate accounts or identity reuse across multiple accounts
- refusal to complete requested steps
If verification fails, we may:
- deny activation
- suspend or deactivate Provider access
- restrict job access
- place holds on payouts
- require additional verification or documentation
7) Re-verification and spot checks
To protect safety and prevent account misuse, we may require re-verification, including:
- periodic selfie checks
- verification before high-value jobs
- verification after long periods of inactivity
- verification after device changes or unusual login patterns
Failure to complete re-verification may result in temporary suspension until completed.
8) Data handling and privacy
We handle verification data consistent with our Privacy Policy and applicable law. We may share data with:
- identity verification vendors
- background screening vendors
- payment processors and fraud prevention vendors
- regulators or law enforcement where required or permitted
We limit access to verification data to personnel with a need to know.
We may retain verification records as needed for:
- fraud prevention and security
- legal compliance
- dispute resolution and audits
- payment and tax compliance
Retention periods may vary.
9) Appeals and corrections
If you believe your identity verification failed due to an error, you may contact Support to request review. We may require additional documentation.
We may decline verification if we cannot validate identity or if fraud risk remains, and we are not required to disclose specific fraud detection methods.
Providers may have additional rights under the Deactivation and Appeals Policy and applicable law.
10) Enforcement
Violations may result in:
- denial of activation
- suspension or deactivation
- payout holds or offsets under applicable policies
- referral to law enforcement where appropriate
11) Policy changes
We may update this policy at any time. Updates will be reflected by the “Last Updated” date above. Continued use of Provider features after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised policy to the extent permitted by law.
