Privacy and cookies
World Career Atlas is built to show useful career and education information without collecting more personal data than we need.
What data we use
The public parts of World Career Atlas are based on official statistics, open education datasets, open employer data and reviewed user contributions. We use this data to show salaries, professions, education paths, employers, ratings and comparison tools.
User contributions
When you submit a rating, salary observation, correction or missing data suggestion, we store the information needed to review it. Public pages should only use reviewed and anonymized contribution data. We do not sell submitted data.
Verification
Some submissions may ask for verification, such as a LinkedIn profile link. Verification is used to improve data quality and confirm that a contribution is connected to real experience. We want to keep as little personal verification material as possible and remove it when it is no longer needed for review.
Cookies
We use a small anonymous session cookie to reduce spam, repeated submissions and rating manipulation. Language preference cookies may be used so the site remembers the selected browsing language. Google Analytics may measure visits and page usage, and Sovrn and its advertising partners may use advertising and measurement cookies, only after the consent choice permits their tags to load.
Ads
We may use page context, such as country, profession, school, employer or page type, to show more relevant ads. World Career Atlas uses Sovrn and the demand partners authorized in our ads.txt file. With consent where required, these partners may use cookies, device identifiers or similar technologies to deliver ads, limit repeated ads, measure performance and detect invalid traffic. Choosing Necessary only prevents World Career Atlas from loading Sovrn ad tags.
Review integrity
Reviews are intended for people with relevant experience, such as employees, former employees, applicants, students or former students. If a company, school or course receives unusual review activity in a short time, those reviews may be held back or removed until they can be checked.
