At Jobvite, we fully understand the importance of GDPR and the impact it has on your organization. The Jobvite Platform is fully GDPR compliant and we can help you navigate the GDPR requirements to ensure that your recruiting and onboarding programs stay in compliance. Jobvite gives you easy-to-use, self-service capabilities to help you meet the GDPR requirements and demonstrate compliance.
Obtain consent from data subjects
GDPR requires you to provide greater transparency to candidates about the information that you collect and how long that data is kept. It also requires that you explicitly obtain consent and record that consent. Jobvite is designed to help you meet this requirement by obtaining unambiguous consent from each candidate.
With Jobvite, you will be able to:
- Configure and deploy customized consent forms (by location and in the appropriate language) on your career site. The consent forms framework and interface provides candidates detailed information about the data you are collecting and an option for them to express action. It then records that action during the apply process
- Give candidates the ability to self-identify their location and Jobvite will automatically serve up the correct consent form for them to complete
- Define a data retention timeframe for contacts and multiple data retention timeframes for applicants; define data purge policies beyond the GDPR requirements for contacts, applicants, and new hires; and orchestrate data deletion activities including auto or manual, and a purge of all data or only specific fields
- Send automated email alerts and request consent forms for candidates that come from sources other than your career site (i.e. bulk contact imports, manual entry, resume databases, etc)
- For existing contacts in Jobvite, use campaigns embedded with a direct URL for contacts to visit which obtains, tracks, and records individual consent
Meet enhanced data subject rights
Under GDPR, a candidate has the right to request to view their information, update their profile with the correct information, and have their information deleted. With Jobvite, you will be able to meet their request in the following ways:
- Right to Access: Access all of the data associated with a specific candidate from candidate profile to process request
- Right to Rectification: Update a candidate record by editing their profile directly
- Right to be Forgotten: Delete their record completely from Jobvite or forget a candidate by anonymizing the personally-identifiable data to maintain reporting integrity. You can either automatically purge candidate data, in accordance with your data retention policies, or delete a candidate record on a per-request basis
Please note that the onus is on you to provide a mechanism for a candidate to submit a request for deletion and then process that request.
