Glassdoor removed several data access and control rights from its privacy policy on March 19, 2026. Previously, the policy stated users could correct, amend, or delete personal information, could request limits on data use and disclosure, and would receive opt-out choices before data was shared with third parties or used for new purposes. The updated policy removes these explicit protections and replaces them with a reference to binding arbitration for unresolved privacy concerns. Users no longer have documented rights to amend their data, request use limitations, or receive advance notice before third-party sharing.
Consumers: You no longer have a documented contractual right to fix or delete information Glassdoor holds about you.
Consumers: You no longer have a contractual right to prevent Glassdoor from sharing your data with third parties without your consent.
Consumers: You can no longer formally request that Glassdoor restrict how it uses or discloses your data.
Consumers: Any privacy dispute with Glassdoor must be resolved through binding arbitration rather than court litigation or regulatory complaint.
The updated privacy policy removes explicit language granting users the right to correct, amend, or delete personal information held by Glassdoor. It also eliminates the documented right to opt-out before data is shared with third parties or used for purposes beyond the original collection. Previously, users could request limits on data use and disclosure; this right is no longer stated in the policy. Instead, the updated terms establish binding arbitration as the mechanism for resolving privacy complaints. Under the revised policy, users who have unresolved privacy concerns may invoke binding arbitration through TrustArc, but they no longer have contractually documented access to data correction, deletion, opt-out, or use-limitation mechanisms.
