How are you protecting the candidate’s privacy?
Smile believes in the sanctity of one's privacy and that our users are the owners of their personal data, and should always be in full control when and to whom they share their data. Smile seeks to comply with all local laws around data privacy. In the Philippines, we comply with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) and we help users exercise their right to Data Portability under Section 18 of the Philippine Data Privacy Act.
Are you going to keep the candidate’s data?
We will not be keeping their data. Smile follows strict data privacy and security measures, and rest assured that every background check conducted is authorized by the candidate/employee. The data collected will only be reported to you, the employer/recruiter, and will not be shared with any third parties.
Why do candidates need to connect their accounts?
Instead of uploading paperworks to verify employment history, candidates connect their accounts, allowing faster and accurate background check creation to simplify the job application process and reduce the risk of errors or information discrepancies. It's an important step towards making the process easier and more efficient for everyone involved.
