- Scope
- SmartRecruiters operates a cloud-based talent acquisition platform that enables business customers to manage recruitment and facilitate candidates’ job applications. For this purpose, our customers collect, and SmartRecruiters processes on their instructions, candidate personal data such as identification and contact details (e.g., name, email, phone, location), professional and educational information (e.g., work history, qualifications, skills, screening answers), and application materials (e.g., résumé/CV and other documents or attachments). Depending on customer configuration, the platform may also process messaging identifiers and related communication data (e.g., for email, SMS, WhatsApp, or similar channels) needed to contact candidates and coordinate the hiring process. Where candidates create a personal account, we additionally process the credentials and profile data required to let them manage and reuse their information across applications. Technical and usage data generated by use of the services are processed only as necessary to provide, secure, maintain, and improve the platform and to meet legal and compliance obligations.

What GDPR means, and what it does not
"GDPR compliant" is a claim, not a certification. The verifiable facts are a public DPA, SCC usage, an EU representative, data residency options and a Data Privacy Framework listing.

Is SmartRecruiters GDPR compliant?
There is no GDPR certification in general use. The verifiable facts are a public data processing agreement, standard contractual clauses, an EU representative and a Data Privacy Framework listing. See the legal artefacts and the DPF row on this page, each with its capture date.
How does CertReports verify this?
Every state carries a capture date, a source and a snapshot link. Registry rows come from the official registry data; vendor statements come from the vendor’s own page or trust centre; nothing is inferred. Vendors can dispute any row and corrections ship within two business days.
