GDPR

GDPR

This GDPR feature is enabled by default for each CAS. It includes standard text and is displayed to the applicant upon creation of their account, or reapplication if they have previously created an account and we do not have an updated GDPR response. The GDPR question is only asked once upon account creation/first time login after re-application, and applicant can view their response via 'My Profile'. This must be configured as NOT editable post-submission.

Applicant View

The GDPR question can show up in 2 ways: The first is upon fresh account creation. The question will be at the bottom of the create account questionnaire. The other will be a pop up modal window if an applicant has an existing account, but the question has not been answered. This is mostly in the case of a reapplicant, or a returning applicant who chose not to use the reapply feature yet use the same credentials.

If an applicant selects 'Yes' to the European Union Data Protection question, the Privacy Notice will appear. The text shown in the screen shot below is the general text and can be customized by CAS.
