Security & GDPR

How we handle candidate data

You share candidate data with us so you can present candidates to your clients. Here’s where it’s processed, who can see it and what you control.

GDPR and AI Act compliant

We act as a processor for the candidate data you upload.

  • Where data is processed

    Candidate data is processed in the European Union.

  • Data processing agreement

    Every customer works under our DPA: you accept it when you create your account. Download it and read it before you upload a single CV.

  • Who we contact

    TalentVeil never emails your client. It communicates only with your team.

Who can see what

You decide what each client sees. Inside your team, roles decide who sees personal data.

Your client

  • Sees only the profiles you put in a Showcase, blind or named, as you choose.

  • Needs no account. You can require an access code, set an expiry date and revoke the link at any time.

  • Can download PDFs only if you switch it on.

Inside your team

  • Roles: recruiters, admins and hiring managers. Give the hiring manager role to anyone who should only review: they see the profiles assigned to them, without personal details such as name and contact details.

  • Unlimited users means you don’t share logins to save money.

  • You see when the Showcase was opened and which profiles were viewed.

How the AI is used

TalentVeil doesn’t score, rank or select candidates. Choosing candidates stays with your recruiters and your client.

  • TalentVeil uses AI to read CVs and write them into your template, in the language and style you choose.

  • It works from what’s in the CV, and flags anything it couldn’t read clearly instead of guessing.

  • Your recruiter reviews and edits every profile before it’s shared.

Questions agencies ask us

  • Where is candidate data processed?

    In the EU. You can download our data processing agreement (DPA) and read it before you upload a single CV.

  • Is there a DPA?

    Yes. You accept it when you create your account, and you can download it and read it first.

  • Does TalentVeil make hiring decisions?

    No. It prepares and presents candidates. It doesn’t score, rank or select them.

  • Does my client need an account?

    No. Your client opens the Showcase link in a browser, on desktop or phone. You can add an access code if you want one.

  • What’s the difference between a blind CV and a candidate profile?

    A blind CV is the candidate profile with the details that identify the candidate hidden (name, contact details, photo and anything else you choose), so your client judges skills and experience first. A named profile shows them. Both come from the same CV in your branded template: hiding or showing is a template setting.

  • Does this website track me?

    Only if you accept it. Analytics and advertising tags load after you click “Accept cookies”. If you decline, or don’t choose, none of them load.
