Sells your browsing data to advertisers through cookies
CodeSignal discloses web analytics and device/IP data to ad networks, which use it to track you across websites and serve targeted ads—a practice classified as a "sale" under California privacy law.
Accesses your email and drive without explicit per-action consent
For Skills Intelligence features, CodeSignal requests broad read-only access to Gmail and Google Drive, potentially seeing all emails and files—and relies on a one-time consent rather than requiring approval for each access.
Records your screen and voice during proctored assessments
CodeSignal collects audiovisual recordings (screensharing) during "proctored" tests, capturing not just your performance but potentially sensitive background information, facial expressions, and surroundings.
