HiBob's privacy policy and terms describe HR data handling in detail but say nothing about whether customer or user data trains AI models, and the user rights it lists are offered only to the extent local law already requires them.

What HiBob's privacy policy and terms of service say about your data

No training-data position

The policy never states whether data entered into the platform is used to train or improve AI models, and no opt-out is described for any such use.

Rights are law-gated

Access, deletion, correction, portability and objection are all introduced as rights that "may include - each to the extent available to you under the laws that apply to you", rather than as commitments to every user.

No retention period

Data is kept "for as long as it is reasonably necessary" with no number given, and the policy adds that HiBob is not obligated to retain personal data for any particular period.

Named certifications and a DPO

The terms commit to being at least compliant with ISO 27001:2013 and SOC2, and the policy names an appointed Data Protection Officer with a published contact address.

What the policy is silent or vague on

Not stated: keeping user inputs out of model training
Not stated: whether training use differs by plan
Not stated: a deletion timeline after closure or request
Not stated: shorter retention for AI conversation logs
