Ethyca's privacy management solution automates data privacy for your company through single-button data subject request approval and fulfillment.
Greenhouse Recruiting's integration with Ethyca allows you to retrieve and delete candidate data when a current or former candidate requests to access or delete their data through GDPR, CCPA or similar data protection laws.

Use the Ethyca integration with Greenhouse Recruiting
Ethyca uses the candidates endpoint on Greenhouse Recruiting to retrieve personally identifiable information (PII) when a user submits a data subject request.
Check out the table below for a summary of what Ethyca does with each endpoint:
| Endpoint | Download my data (SAR) | Erase me (Right to forget) |
| Candidate | Yes | Yes |
Because Greenhouse Recruiting is an applicant tracking system, it stores PII about your employees. Keep this in mind when you are setting the DSR customization as it will impact what is returned in your subject's DSR package.
