The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) went into effect on January 1, 2020, and its purpose is to protect the personal information of California residents (“consumers”). The CCPA requires some businesses to collect, share, or sell personal information.
Workable provides features to help you share your privacy notice with candidates.
Note: For these features to be applied to a job, at least one of the job's locations must be within California.
To enable CCPA features:
- Click your user icon to navigate to Settings, then Compliance
- Locate the CCPA section and enable the switch
- A box will appear where you can add a link to your company's privacy notice. If you use Language kit, you can add links to translated versions for each of your supported languages, if needed.
- After adding the link(s), click Save Changes
When at least one of the job's locations is in California, the link you saved will be included at all key touchpoints with candidates. This includes your Workable Careers page and application forms, application confirmation emails, and other candidate-facing pages. The link can be found in the footer of these pages.
If a candidate was uploaded to your account and may not have seen your privacy notice, a text footer will appear in the email editor when sending the candidate an email or event for the first time. This text is editable and only appears the first time an email/event is sent to the candidate. Learn more here.
