There are various laws and regulations which apply to data protection and data privacy. Perhaps the strongest one is the European Global Data Protection Regulation legislation to protect personal data, giving individuals more control and more security over what data is captured, how it is stored, and most importantly, how it is shared, and who ultimately owns it.

Careernomics.com is GDPR compliant, as it elevates the data privacy and data security in the industry. We are committed to the new law which is aligned with our values. Note that we never relied on advertising as a revenue stream so we have no necessity to collect and process users' personal information beyond what is required for the functioning of our Service.

Practically:

  • We identified the Personally Identifiable Information, elevated the security of our members' data, and have given more visibility and transparency on what data we collect and how it is used
  • We made all our registration forms GDPR-compliant and we explicitly ask them for authorisation regarding each type of email we may send them
  • We allow our members to export their data, anytime, with a simple click and/or to delete their accounts and have all their personal information removed. We also automatically delete accounts that are inactive for more than 2 years
  • We reviewed third parties with whom we disclose data to ensure they are GDPR compliant and we raised awareness and training our team regarding the importance of data privacy
