LinkedIn complies with EU data regulations, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), U.S. Swiss Safe Harbor Framework, and the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the EU Commission for residents of the European Union. The1-Click Exportfeature, like the rest of RSC and CRM Connect, is designed to be used in a GDPR compliant manner. Members have control, via their privacy settings, over whether Recruiter customers can export stub profile data.
The goals of the GDPR are consistent with LinkedIn’s longstanding commitment to data protection and transparency. This is reflected in our focus on building data protection into our products, providing our members with control over their data, and being transparent about how we use member data. RSC and CRM Connect are built to enable customers to use it in a GDPR compliant manner. Customers are responsible for their own GDPR compliance. Specifically, as with Recruiter in general, customers should get advice from their own counsel regarding GDPR compliance on the following:
-
Any personal data they may gather through Recruiter
-
Ensuring the provision of personal data to LinkedIn is consistent with their obligations under GDPR
Regarding the 1-Click-Export feature of RSC and CRM Connect, LinkedIn members can control what they share with third-parties via thePrivacytab in their LinkedIn Settings. Therefore, we only show the1-Click Exportbutton for members that have not opted out from having their profile information (in the case of 1-click export, their “stub profile” - name, headline, current company, current title and general location) shared with third-parties.
RSC and CRM Connect also include “delete” functionality. This enables customers to satisfy data subject access requests for deletion. If a candidate requests a customer to delete their data, the customer could delete that candidate’s data from LinkedIn via the RSC or CRM Connect “delete” API as integrated with their RSC or CRM-enabled ATS.
