Each broker is scored 1 to 4 across the six dimensions above; higher means more exposure, and the overall gauge is their average.
What each dimension means
- Data published: how much and how sensitive the personal data they put out.
- Re-listing frequency: how quickly you reappear after opting out.
- Complaint record: the volume and pattern of complaints across BBB, Trustpilot, and Sitejabber. No listing, or a listing with no reviews, counts against the broker.
- Opt-out friction: how hard the removal process is to complete.
- Operator opacity: how hidden the operating company and its principals are.
- Prior data incidents: history of breaches or leaks of the data they hold.

A job board works by making candidates findable. You upload a CV so employers can discover you, a fair exchange while you're looking. California's registry sees the same arrangement differently. A searchable database of personal information, sold as access to paying third parties, makes a data broker however willingly the information arrived.
A résumé is unusual as broker data because it's complete. Every employer and date, your skills, location and contact details, often education and certifications, all written by you to be accurate. It's far cleaner than anything a people-search site assembles.
The filing adds the detail worth pausing on. Dice answers Yes to collecting citizenship data, including immigration status, and No to every other sensitive category. In tech hiring that's work-authorisation filtering.
Consent given years ago is doing a lot of work. A CV uploaded during a 2015 job search is still a searchable record unless you removed it, and the exchange stopped being fair the moment you stopped looking.
Data Published
Data types
Visible to recruiters and employers with paid access, not to the open web. A search engine won't surface you here.
Your full CV as uploaded, including employment history and dates
Name, email address and phone number
Location and willingness to relocate
Skills, certifications and years of experience
Desired salary and role preferences, where supplied
Citizenship and immigration status, per its own filing
Job search activity and applications made through the platform
Immigration status is the field to think hardest about. It exists so recruiters can filter on work authorisation, and it puts a fact with consequences well beyond hiring in a commercial database, attached to your name, employer history and contact details.

Trust signals
Dice is a brand its subjects have used and formed opinions about. Most of those opinions are about job-hunting quality, recruiter spam and listing freshness rather than data handling, but the most recent is about getting Dice to let go of an account.
FAQ
Q & A
I signed up for Dice myself. Is it really a data broker?
Yes, and it registered as one. Dice Career Solutions, Inc. is on California's registry under the DBA Dice.com. The statute (Civil Code section 1798.99.80) turns on selling personal information about consumers the business has no direct relationship with, so your own account isn't the trigger. Its policy describes building profiles from public sources whether or not someone has an account, and selling that information to its customers.
Will deleting my data close my Dice account?
Treat that as the likely outcome. The delete option asks for all of your personal information to be removed from Dice's systems and its third-party providers', and a job-seeker account is made of exactly that. If you're still job hunting, use opt out of sale instead.
Why does Dice hold my immigration status?
Its filing answers Yes to collecting citizenship data including immigration status, the only sensitive category it claims. Its privacy policy lists citizenship, citizenship status and work eligibility among the details it may ask for when you build a profile, because sponsorship affects who an employer can hire.
Does the form cover advertising too?
Not entirely. Beneath the form Dice notes a separate right to opt out of processing, sale and sharing for targeted or cross-context behavioural advertising, reached by its own link. The main form alone leaves that one unexercised, so do both.
I don't live in one of the states listed. Can I still submit?
The page names eleven states whose laws provide these rights, but the form doesn't gate on residence and anyone can submit. What differs is whether Dice is legally obliged to act, and since Dice reports granting every request it received in 2024, that may not matter much in practice.
Take yourself off data broker sites
Redact scans 120+ data broker sites from your device, finds where your details are listed, and submits the removal requests for you. If a broker relists you, it files again.
September 10, 2026 · Rights form walked firsthand on August 18, 2026, before a word was drafted; the three options, the reCAPTCHA, the eleven named states and the advertising opt-out link under the button are from that screen. Rechecked September 10, 2026 against the served form and a fresh pull of California's registry, which still carries Dice's row with the same 2024 figures and the same Yes to citizenship data. The DHI Group parent line, the helpline, the privacy address and the opt-out-of-sale volume were added then, from Dice's privacy policy, its rights page and its filing.
