A Secure Platform for GDPR Compliance
In respect to the recruitment, Global Data protection Regulations (GDPR) refers to:
Candidates &
Jobseekers
As part of the recruitment process, candidates furnish a lot of their personal data including their resume details, physical addresses, or phone numbers. GDPR Rules exist to protect this information from misuse and unauthorized access by third parties.
Employers &
Recruiters
Since recruiters are the main ones responsible for collecting the personal data of candidates and may use them for any purpose, they can be considered as data controllers. The responsibility of protecting candidate data and using it lawfully falls on them as representatives of the company or as employers.
Recruitment Tech & Data Processors
Applicant tracking systems are considered data processors since a lot of your candidate's data is processed on the platform during the recruitment process. Furthermore, they also collect personal information and sell it to third parties.
Who must comply with GDPR and what are the penalties for non-compliance?
The GDPR applies to all organizations that handle the personal data of EU residents and also covers EU-based companies and those offering goods or services to the EU. Any company that does not comply with these regulations, risks being fined up to 4% of its annual global turnover (revenue) or €20 million, whichever is greater.
