Private messages you send through Glassdoor are not truly private — they are collected, stored, and processed as personal data by the company.
Glassdoor collects an extensive range of personal data including highly sensitive categories such as race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, and health information, as well as your job applications, messages, and behavioral activity. This data may be shared with employers, affiliated companies including Indeed and Indeed Flex, and third-party advertising partners, meaning your sensitive information could reach multiple organizations beyond Glassdoor itself. You can review and manage your data sharing preferences, exercise deletion rights, or adjust privacy settings through Glassdoor's account settings or by contacting their privacy team.
