The Scope of Indeed’s Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy covers data that we collect through the Sites, directly from data subjects, or that we obtain from third parties. In cases where you follow a link to a third-party website, you are no longer covered by our Privacy Policy, and any data collection or processing activity that takes place on that website will be governed by that website’s own privacy policy. We only collect data on the Sites that display a direct link to this Privacy Policy.

In accordance with our Terms, the Site is generally only for use by people aged 16 or over. However, some jurisdictions have different age restrictions, as outlined below. 

• Japan:  For Japan users, the Site is only for use by those who meet the permitted minimum age under Japanese law for Indeed to lawfully provide you with use of the Site.
• EEA, Switzerland, UK, Turkey, and Ukraine:  As of 1 February 2024, access to the Site in the EEA, as well as Switzerland, UK, Turkey, and Ukraine, is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older.  

In addition to the main Privacy Policy, the Japan Annex applies to Japan users (including users who apply to jobs posted by employers in Japan). Please also see the Japan Annex here. If there is a discrepancy between the Privacy Policy and the Japan Annex, the Japan Annex takes precedence for Japan users.

In all jurisdictions, if you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you must use the Sites under the supervision of your parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult even if your age is above the Indeed permitted use age for that jurisdiction. 

We adopt a range of measures to try to ensure that no information is knowingly solicited from individuals who do not meet the minimum age or any other applicable age requirements.

If we learn that an individual who does not meet the minimum age requirement has used the Site or provided personal data through the Site, we will restrict access to, or close their account, and remove that information from our systems.

Applicants to internal jobs at Indeed should reference the Recruitment Privacy Policy.

Current and former employees of Indeed should reach out to their Human Resources partner to reference the Global Employee Privacy Notice.

Data collection and use

Learn about the types of data Indeed uses to support the services we provide.

Indeed uses different types of information in order to provide our Sites’ services, products, and features to you.  The Personal Data we collect and process may vary, depending on how you use our Sites.

If Personal Data is required, to provide particular Indeed services or features to you, it will be indicated at the time of collection. If Personal Data is required and you choose not to provide it, then the particular feature or service may not be available to you.

Information that Indeed collects

In accordance with applicable data protection laws in the EEA, controllers must have a legal basis to process information. This means we rely on different legal bases to process your information, depending on the purpose of processing outlined in this Privacy Policy. 

Full details of the types of personal data we collect from you, the purpose of processing it, our processing operations, and details of the legal bases we rely upon for GDPR are detailed below. 

Retention of Your Information

Where Indeed acts as a controller of your Personal Data, we retain such data until it is no longer necessary to fulfill the purpose it is being used for, as required by applicable laws,  or until you ask us to delete it. For Japan users, personal data will be stored and used to the extent and for the period necessary to comply with the law.

Information on how long we retain your information, for each purpose, is set out in the following section. In determining these appropriate retention periods, we consider the purposes for which we process Personal Data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means. We also consider the extent, nature, and sensitivity of Personal Data and our legal obligations with respect to data. Retention means we retain data in a manner that allows it to be identified until it is deleted/anonymized in response to a user request. Where possible and relying on our legitimate interest in improving our Sites, Indeed anonymizes or aggregates Personal Data, so that it can no longer be associated with or identify a user, in which case Indeed can further process the information. For example, we may use anonymized job seeker data, such as your profile data to test the accuracy of our products and services. Another way we may use anonymized data is to make sure our technology is helping all people get jobs in a way that is fair.

Where Indeed acts as Processor of your Personal Data, we store such data until instructed to delete it by the Controller.

Additional Purposes and Disclosures of Information

• Profile data 

By creating a profile set to “Employers can find you” through the Site including when you upload a file resume on the Site, you are requesting and authorizing Indeed to make available your profile data to third parties, in accordance with our Terms. When you create a profile on Indeed, it is set so that employers can find you by default. This means that profile data (employers can find you) including your resume data, except as otherwise indicated on the Site, may be available to third parties, such as employers. 

Please note employers and employer representatives who access your profile data while it is set to “Employers can find you”, or to whom you apply with your profile set to Employers can’t find you”, may choose to share your profile with additional parties. Indeed is not responsible for such sharing. Similarly, when you share your profile set to “Employers can find you” directly with a personalized link, we cannot control who sees your profile when you share that link.

You may change your profile privacy settings at any time. If you do not want Indeed to make your profile data (“Employers can find you”) available to third parties without your direction or if you do not want employers to contact you, you can set your profile to “Employers can’t find you”. If you would like to learn more about your profile, including the differences between profiles where employers can find you and profiles where employers can’t find you, and how to change your profile privacy settings, please see our FAQ.

Please note that as we continue to improve the Site, you may see phrases like ‘Employers can find you’ and ‘Employers can’t find you’. These phrases are to enhance user understanding and are now used in place of the terms ‘Searchable’ and ‘Not Searchable’ respectively.

• Employer Accounts

We offer users the ability to link Employer accounts together. Linked users can be assigned specific roles, which provide varying levels of access to the candidate Personal Data contained in the parent account. If you are an Employer and you invite other Indeed users to link their accounts to yours, you agree that such linked users may have access to any and all information in your account. Types of candidate Personal Data include resume contacts, application materials and statuses, communications with applicants, any action taken by you or another user linked to the account, when you took that action, and billing information within the account. When an Employer account is delinked, either by your own action or an administrator’s action, you will lose access to all candidate Personal Data in the linked account.

• Resume Review Services

In certain markets, we may also offer additional resume review services to help Job Seekers build and improve their resumes. For example, this can include helping you understand how your resume may be parsed by applicant tracking system software, feedback on ways to build a more effective resume, or a personalized resume review video. In providing these services, Indeed may give you feedback, including questions and comments on the contents of your resume, about Your Resume or other materials you submit through the services. We provide this feedback directly to you, and may give you the ability to access it within your account. It is not made available to Employers.

• Automated Processing of Your Personal Data

We perform automated processing of Personal Data to evaluate specific aspects relating to a user and to analyze and predict a user’s preferences and interests. Where we perform this processing, we do so either on the basis of user consent, legitimate interests, or performance of a contract, whereby such processing is necessary for us to provide our services to Job Seekers and Employers. For example, such processing allows us to match Job Seekers with Employers effectively, to provide Job Seekers with Job Alerts, recommended jobs, and invitations to take action on jobs that the Job Seeker is likely to be more interested in, to send particular Job Seeker applications to an Employer, to display search results, to send application status notifications on behalf of Employers, or to perform certain spam and fraud detection activities to protect our users. Such processing is subject to the safeguards detailed in this Privacy Policy to protect the privacy of our users. You may contact privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces) to exercise your rights or contest any decision generated by said automated processing.

• How we use Artificial Intelligence or “AI” 

Indeed’s mission is to help people get jobs. In support of these goals, we use personal data to develop, train, build and use statistical models, including artificial intelligence (“AI”), which allows Job Seekers and Employers to quickly and easily find one another and determine if they are a good match.

We use your personal data, including profile information and activity data to provide candidate highlights (a summary of your information), personalized outreach messages, highlighted relevant skills or job experience, job descriptions and to offer job-based matched candidates. These features help connect Job Seekers and Employers over potential employment opportunities. We may leverage our partnerships with vendors acting on our behalf for this processing. 

In some jurisdictions, Indeed may enable chatbots and other interactive experiences that allow you to take certain actions on the Site, such as applying to a job, sourcing and screening candidates, scheduling and participating in an interview, optimizing job listings or otherwise interacting with the Site, Employers, or Job Listings on our Site. The information you share in a chat with a chatbot is used to provide more personalized responses or relevant information.

We will indicate when a chatbot is using artificial intelligence. This is new and continuously evolving technology that may sometimes give inaccurate or inappropriate information that does not represent Indeed or the Employer’s views. You should always review the output of AI-generated content. You can find more details on Indeed’s AI Principles and Responsible AI at Indeed within Indeed’s ESG hub. We’ll continue to build on these efforts and continuously integrate additional privacy safeguards as we improve our use of AI.

Employers may use Indeed Recruiting Services to generate an AI-powered summary evaluation and a generalized match rating of applications received. Indeed Recruiting Services processes personal data including application data to generate these summaries for the purpose of assisting Employers with their recruiting and hiring.

Employers may use Indeed Recruiting Services to screen applicants based on criteria determined by the Employer. Indeed Recruiting Services uses AI for those screening purposes on behalf of the Employer. The personal data processed for these purposes is limited to what is necessary for generating application insights and supporting screening decisions.

Indeed Recruiting Services does not make employment decisions on behalf of the Employer.

• How we use Artificial Intelligence or “AI”  in Customer Calls

We use AI-powered tools to support our customer service and communications. These tools may assist with call transcription, call summaries and follow-up documentation, and real-time call analysis. The AI-powered tools may have access to personal data you choose to share during the conversation and may include third-party models.

• Site activity recording: what we do with the data

We collect, record, process, analyze, and store any and all activities you take on the Site and on the affiliated sites, and any and all interactions and communications you have with, on, or through the Site and affiliated sites. We may also use third parties to collect and process this data on Indeed’s behalf, in connection with our operations to improve the Sites, protect our users, and optimize our services as described further in this policy. This activity data includes: which areas of the Site you visit (including URLs), which content you view, which information you input, whether and where you click, scroll, hover-over, mouseover, or otherwise interact with or communicate with or through the Site and affiliated sites, the timing of each activity, and time spent on each activity. We collect this data from everyone using the Site and affiliated sites, including users of private browsing mode, “incognito mode,” or similar modes. We use vendors as an extension of the Site and affiliated sites to collect, record, process, analyze, and store this data. 

We process your activity on the Site and affiliated sites to help us better understand how you use them. This helps us improve and inform the products and services we offer. All of which allows us to help you find jobs. 

Because it’s critical to how our sites operate, if you do not want your actions to be collected, recorded, processed, analyzed, or shared in this way, you may need to cease using our sites.

• Research/UX Data

We collect personal data for research purposes to improve our products and services, understand user behavior and enhance user experience. Types of data collected varies with the specific study being performed but may include:

• First name
• Last name
• Gender
• Age
• Email address
• Telephone number
• Home address
• IP address
• Account ID’s

Our legal basis for this data being collected:

Performance of a Contract 

When Indeed performs these research studies, they are performed under NDA and the data collected is subject to the agreement with Indeed.

Where research studies are performed by a third party on behalf of Indeed, the data is subject to the agreement with those third parties. In most cases, only aggregated results are shared and any personal data collected is not shared with Indeed. 

Personal data collected for research purposes will be retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the objectives of the given study and comply with our legal obligations. Once the objective of the research is complete, personal data will be anonymized or securely deleted.

• Gmail Integration for My Jobs Status Updates

We offer users the ability to link their Gmail accounts to automatically update your job application statuses on their Indeed My Jobs page. This feature allows you to see updates such as whether your application has progressed to the interview stage or if you were accepted or declined for the position.

By opting into this feature, you agree that Indeed will have access to your emails to scan for relevant job application information. This includes details like job title, employer, and application status, whether the applications were submitted through Indeed or other platforms. The extracted data will be processed and stored to help improve the accuracy of job status updates and enhance the overall user experience on Indeed.

You can remove Indeed’s access to your email at any time. To do so, visit your Goggle account settings or use the link at the bottom of your My Jobs page on Indeed.

Who we share your data with 

Learn about how and why Indeed shares information with our Affiliates and other third parties.

Transfers of Information to Our Affiliates

Indeed shares information with its Affiliates for the reasons outlined below. The services provided to you and the functionality of the Sites could not be provided without such transfers. If you do not wish your information to be transferred in this way you should not use the Sites. 

Purpose of sharing	Explanation of sharing
To improve our services	Provides Job Seekers with personalized and improved content, performance, features and service. Provides Employers insight into job performance.
More employers, job listings and job seekers	Job Seekers can access more job listings, and Employers can access more Job Seekers.
Better security for users	Improves user security and internal operations, troubleshooting, and detection of fraud and spam.

Glassdoor–Indeed Profile Integration

When you choose to log in to Glassdoor using your Indeed credentials (“OAOP Login”), your accounts are linked, and certain profile attributes (such as professional history, job preferences, and contact information) are synchronized. This data is processed to ensure your profile is consistent and accurate across both sites, enabling smarter job matching and faster application processes. While Indeed and Glassdoor remain separate online platforms, this linking means that profile changes made on one site may update the profile on the other using the most recent information provided. Your decision to delete your Indeed account will terminate access to linked Glassdoor services, as the accounts cannot be unlinked once merged. For more information, see our Joint Controller Addendum.

Transfers of Information to Employers 

Indeed sends Job Seeker Personal Data to Employers, including, on the instruction of Job Seekers and Employers. Such transfers are performed in the course of the job search, application, and interview process. Job Seeker Personal Data transferred to Employers in this way is processed in accordance with Indeed’s Terms and those of the relevant Employer. This transfer may include sending your application and/or additional candidate information, such as your contact details, to other platforms that process Job Seeker Personal Data for the Employer, such as the Employer’s preferred Applicant Tracking System (ATS) or scheduling platform.

Employers agree to comply with all their responsibilities under applicable data protection rules with respect to the collection, processing, and storage of Personal Data, as well as providing adequate protection of all data subject rights provided for under all applicable data protection rules. 

Indeed employer accounts associated with an employer’s domain may be shared with other members of your organization to facilitate the allocation of new joining members to the corresponding employer account. If you use Indeed with a company email address but you do not use the Services in connection with your organization (for example searching and applying for jobs yourself), and you do not wish for this information to be shared with your organization, you should transfer your account to a personal email address. You might be able to update the email address on your account from the account settings page, depending on your sign-in method. Please note that if your employer uses SSO functionality on Indeed, you may be unable to update the email address associated with your Indeed account.  For more information, please contact your employer’s IT/HR administrator. 

In certain jurisdictions, we host jobs made available by other job boards. When a job seeker applies to job posts posted by job boards that have integrated Indeed Apply, if such job seeker agrees to the terms of service and the privacy policy of the job boards before submitting the application, the job seeker’s personal data may be transferred not just to employers but also to the job boards.

Transfers of Information to Job Seekers

Indeed sends certain Employer-related information to Job Seekers. This includes publishing Job Ads, Company Pages, and salary information on the Sites and publishing Job Listings on third-party websites. Indeed may also make available certain Employer-related information to Job Seekers, such as information about an Employer’s activity and responsiveness on the Sites. This can include the Employer representative’s name, the Employer’s city/state location, whether the Employer has taken or has chosen not to take an action with regard to the Job Seeker’s resume or application such as opening, viewing, responding to or making a decision in regard to it, whether the Employer has engaged with other Job Seekers or viewed other Job Seekers’ resumes, and whether the Employer has taken an action in regard to a Job Listing such as pausing or closing it. We do this in order to help Job Seekers evaluate employment opportunities. As an Employer, when you use the Sites (for example by posting a Job Listing or contacting a Job Seeker through Smart Sourcing) you agree that Indeed may provide this information to Job Seekers.

Transfers of Information to Service Providers and other third parties

We use third parties to perform services in connection with our operations, to improve the Sites and our services, products, and features, to protect our users and better understand their needs, and to optimize our services and our users’ experiences. By using our Sites, you acknowledge Indeed’s use of such third-parties, including, but not limited to, for the purpose of collecting, processing, analyzing, and recording your activity on, interaction with, and communications with, or through our Sites. This includes: which areas of the Site you visit (including URLs), which content you view, which information you input, whether and where you click, scroll, hover-over, mouseover, or otherwise interact with or communicate with or through the Site, the timing of each activity, and time spent on each activity. Our third parties collect this data from everyone using the Site, including users of private browsing mode, “incognito mode,” or similar modes.

We process your activity on the Site directly or through third parties to help us better understand how you use them. This helps us improve and inform the products and services we offer. All of which allows us to help you find jobs. 

All transfers of information to service providers are covered by appropriate data agreements and, in the case of cross-border data transfers, legal mechanisms for doing so. We transfer data to service providers for the following reasons:

Purpose of sharing	Explanation of sharing	Legal basis
Providing personalized experience	To provide relevant features, services, and preferences through your engagement on our Sites	Legitimate interest to provide services
Improving our services, products, and features	To continuously maintain a high standard of services, products, and features	Legitimate interest to improve our services
Protecting users	To prevent or investigate possible fraud or other security and safety violations	Legitimate interest in preventing fraud and security violations
Facilitating and pursuing payments	To check credit, effect and pursue payments, and service your account	Performance of a contract Legitimate interest to pursue payments owed
Installing or using an Indeed app and interactions with job postings	Limited personal data such as IP address and event data is shared with the platform from which you download the app to: Facilitate log-in through third-party accounts; provide you with services and attribution of ads;	Legitimate interest to provide services and attribution of ads
Storage	Cloud service providers that host and store our data	Performance of a contract
Verifying professional licenses or certifications	As part of an application process	Consent – we only verify certifications as part of an application process with your consent

You may contact privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces) to avail of an up-to-date list of third-party service providers.

Indeed will not sell or rent data collected from the Indeed Interview Updates or Recruiter Invitations short code programs to third parties for marketing purposes.

Transfer of information to partners

Indeed partners with various organizations to help Job Seekers find opportunities, such as in markets where Job Seekers may not typically access Indeed. These partnerships introduce Job Seekers to Indeed’s services and provide valuable insights into the needs of diverse audiences, allowing Indeed to improve its offerings.

In some cases, Indeed may share limited information with partners, such as confirmation of account creation or successful use of Indeed’s services (e.g., applying to a certain number of jobs or using career guides). Additionally, Job Seekers can choose to consent to share specific data with a partner to streamline their job search experience on that partner’s platform.

Partners may also advertise their career services in partnership with Indeed. For the avoidance of doubt, where partners are co-branded on the site, each entity is a separate controller of your Personal Data.

Transfers of Publicly Available Information

When users post content on the Sites in a manner that is intended to make that content searchable by individuals, Indeed reserves the right to aggregate and share that information with third parties. For example, if an Employer posts a job on the Sites, Indeed may share that Job Listing or information contained within that Job Listing with third parties, at Indeed’s discretion and subject to agreement with such third parties. Indeed also reserves the right to share information aggregated from public sources in this capacity.

Transfers of information from service providers

Indeed may collect and use information about users obtained from third-party platforms such as social networking sites for the following purposes:

• To classify and quantitatively understand the number of responses and spread of marketing campaign measures such as TV commercials;
• To monitor the reputation of Indeed’s services to understand what is appreciated and what is not, and use this information in communication plans;
• For early detection of improvements to the service, monitoring of user feedback, and planning of countermeasures;
• To provide support for users who do not know how to use Indeed’s services;
• To find product defects (e.g., “When I try to open the application, it displays a 501 error and I can’t use it” or “I can’t apply for a job”) and escalate the issue to the development team

Links to Third-Party Sites

The Sites may make available links to other third-party websites. When you click on such links, you may leave our Sites. Your web browser may also disclose to the third-party website the URL of the Sites page you clicked from, and this URL may include search terms and filters you used on the Sites. The Sites may also make available Company Pages, which may contain information provided by third-party Employers.

Indeed is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. Please consult their individual privacy policies to learn more.

Your personal data rights

Learn about your rights to access, update, delete, object, and restrict the processing of your personal data.

These rights are offered to all Indeed users globally when Indeed is the controller and are subject to applicable laws. If permitted by the law, a third-party is able to make a request on your behalf. For region specific information, please refer to the “Region Specific Information” section.

We verify all requests through email before actioning them and reserve the right to deny a request where we are unable to verify your identity satisfactorily. This also applies to requests submitted on your behalf by someone else.  ​​

If you have any queries or complaints about how we process your Personal Data, we encourage you to contact us.

The Right of Access to and Portability of Your Personal Data

You may make a formal request to access (also referred to as the “right to know”) your Personal Data by filling out this Personal Data Request Form or by sending an email to privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account. You are able to access much of your Personal Data by viewing it directly in your account. 

You have the right to request that we provide the Personal Data we collect, use, and disclose about you. We will provide your Personal Data to you in a portable format. This enables you to take your data from us in an electronically usable format and to transfer your data to another party in an electronically usable format. If you have interacted with a Site using more than one email address, please submit a separate request for each email address so that we may provide this personal data as well.

The Right to Rectify/Correct Inaccuracies in Your Personal Data

You have the right to rectify, update or correct inaccuracies in your Personal Data. You can modify much of your Personal Data by editing your account profile information directly. 

You may also make a formal request to have Indeed rectify any inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated Personal Data on your behalf by sending an email to privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account.

The Right to Delete Your Personal Data

You have the right to request that we delete your Personal Data, also known as the “right to erasure”. You are able to delete much of your Personal Data by removing it from your account directly. If you wish to exercise your right to erasure and close your account, please submit a Personal Data Request Form. You may also request that we delete your Personal Data by sending an email to privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account. Indeed requires a separate submission for each email address to verify the identity of the person making the request and ensure user security. Please submit a separate request for each email address as this is a critical step in our process so that we can safely verify the identity of the person making the request.

By making a Personal Data deletion request, we will close and delete your account and remove access to your profile on Indeed. 

Deletion of your Personal Data may have additional effects on your account, as explained in our Privacy FAQ. For example, if you have used Indeed Apply or Easy Apply to apply to a job listed on our Site or an affiliate site, you may not receive certain communications associated with your application from us or from other users of our Site or affiliated sites. Deletion of your Personal Data does not affect messages we process on behalf of others in connection with their use of our site, and they may continue to have access to all messages sent to or received from you.

By making a Personal Data deletion request, you acknowledge that you will be removed from consideration for all active sweepstakes, contests, prize draws, and other promotions.

Where Indeed uses a third-party vendor to process Personal Data controlled by Indeed, we will pass on your request to these vendors and make reasonable requests to inform other controllers of your Personal Data of your request. 

Please note that a deletion request only affects your Personal Data. If you submit a deletion request against your Employer account, we will only delete your Personal Data, and any non-Personal Data such as information about your company will not be deleted. 

The Right to Object to, Opt Out of or Restrict the Processing of Your Personal Data

You have the right to object to, opt out of and to request the restriction of certain types of processing of your Personal Data.

Where we rely on legitimate interests as a legal basis to process your Personal Data, you can object to this processing and request that we no longer process your Personal Data in this way, unless we have compelling legitimate grounds which override your rights. 

You also have the right to object or opt out of your personal data being sent to a third party [excluding vendors who act as our service provider] / controller by emailing privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account.
 

The Right to Object to/challenge Automated Decision Making and Profiling

Where applicable and required by law, you also have the right to object or ‘challenge’ (meaning a person will review the decision) any automated decision-making including  profiling, which produces a legal effect or similarly significant effects. ¹

If you wish to make a formal request to object to, challenge or restrict the processing of your Personal Data, please email privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account. 

_{¹ As of the latest publishing of this Policy, there are no services on Indeed where Indeed as a data controller conducts automated processing that has a legal or similarly significant effect.}

Opt out of Indeed Communications  

If you wish to opt out of a particular marketing email, you may do so by clicking “unsubscribe” (or an equivalent action) within the email. Please note that this will only opt you out of that particular type of marketing message. To update your marketing preferences, go to your account dashboard, go to ‘settings’, then go to the ‘communication tab’.

In addition, you may opt out of all marketing messages by sending an email to privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces when sending email). We will comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable, and in accordance with applicable laws.

Finally, please note that we may still send other non-marketing messages to you, such as administrative messages. 

If you wish to adjust all of your Job Alerts, you can click on “Edit this job alert” (or an equivalent action) to adjust your subscriptions. You can also access and adjust your marketing subscriptions (for Job Alerts, recommended jobs, and other notifications) from your account dashboard (where applicable), or contact us to do so.

Opt out of Conversion Tracking 

As explained in our Privacy FAQ, we perform conversion tracking to improve our understanding of your application journey by checking whether you applied for a job off Indeed that you located on Indeed. If you would like to opt out of this tracking, please visit our web beacon opt out page.

Withdrawing Consent

Where we rely on your consent as a lawful basis to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Instructions on how to withdraw consent will be explained to you at the time that you are asked to provide your consent, for example when you provide any demographic data

If you have consented to provide location information via a mobile app, you may turn off your location services on your device at any time. You can see how to modify your mobile device location settings preferences here. You may also contact privacy-dept @ indeed.com (remove spaces) to inform us that you are withdrawing your consent. Please note that any processing that we have carried out before the withdrawal of your consent remains lawful.

Limitations

These rights may be subject to certain limitations, as provided for by applicable laws in relevant markets. Requests will be completed within the time allotted by relevant regulations, which starts to run from the point of us confirming your request. Where permitted, please note there may be a charge for subsequent requests from the same individual, which will be determined by Indeed and only imposed to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 Please also note that deleting your Personal Data held by Indeed does not affect messages we process on behalf of others in connection with their use of Indeed Messaging and the Relay Service and they may continue to have access to all messages sent to or received from you.

If you are located in Japan or applying to jobs posted by employers in Japan and you would like to exercise the personal data rights such as access and deletion for the personal data that Indeed obtained with respect to your use of, or job application through, other job boards (e.g., Townwork, Rikunabi Next), please submit a request to such job boards. Please also note if you submit a deletion request to any other job board, personal data that each of Indeed and such other job boards holds regarding your job application through the job board (including but not limited to the application data) will be deleted.
