LinkedIn Updates Its Terms Of Service In Preparation For GDPR

By George Carey-Simos

LinkedIn is making certain it will be ready for GDPR when it’s enforced this May, by making several adjustments to its Terms of Service.

If you haven’t been living under a rock in the last few months, you will know at least something about GDPR and its impending enforcement this May. In case you don’t, GDPR is short for General Data Protection Regulation, and it’s a new European data protection law that many people are freaking out about. If you don’t happen to know anything about it, it’s probably best you find out, as it will most likely affect any digital marketing work you do in Europe.

In any case, LinkedIn wants to be prepared for GDPR’s enforcement in a few months, so it’s updating its Terms of Service to make sure it doesn’t fall foul of the regulation. The Terms include its User Agreement, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and Professional Community Policies, and are getting an update that will be effective May 8, 2018.
