Rights Orchestration
Right to Delete removes the candidate through Greenhouse's own API. Right to Access returns information associated with the candidate.
Ketch and Greenhouse Recruiting
Enforce an email opt-out by actually replacing the address on file, not by setting a flag a downstream system might not honor.
About Greenhouse Recruiting
Greenhouse Recruiting brings candidate applications together in one dashboard, sourced from job boards, referrals, and every other channel a recruiting team uses. When a candidate opts out of email marketing, the most reliable way to guarantee they stop receiving it isn't a preference flag that some integration might ignore; it's making the email address itself unusable for that purpose.
Ketch connects to Greenhouse Recruiting to enforce consent exactly that way.
Capabilities
How Ketch works with Greenhouse Recruiting
The Ketch Greenhouse Recruiting integration covers Rights Orchestration (Right to Delete, Right to Access) and Consent Orchestration.
Consent Orchestration
Works distinctively: when a candidate opts out of email marketing, Ketch updates their Greenhouse email address to a generic, non-functional placeholder address, rather than just setting a preference flag. If the candidate opts back in, their original email address is restored. This approach means the opt-out is enforced at the data level, not dependent on every downstream system correctly reading and honoring a consent flag.
With Ketch, teams can
- Fulfill Right to Access and Right to Delete requests against Greenhouse Recruiting candidate data through the same workflow used for every other connected system
- Enforce an email opt-out by replacing the address itself, rather than relying on a flag every downstream consumer needs to honor correctly
- Restore the original email address automatically if a candidate opts back in
The gap
The problem this integration solves
A consent flag is only as reliable as every system that's supposed to check it, and recruiting data flows through more downstream tools than most privacy teams expect:
01. A preference flag alone depends on every connected system reading and honoring it correctly, which isn't guaranteed
02. Replacing an email address with a placeholder guarantees the opt-out holds regardless of what any individual downstream integration does
03. Manually reversing an opt-out when a candidate wants back in, restoring the correct original email, adds friction if it's not automated
Ketch resolves the first two by enforcing the opt-out at the data level rather than through a flag, and the third by automatically restoring the original address on opt-in.
Why Ketch
Why teams choose Ketch for Greenhouse Recruiting privacy compliance
Permissioning infrastructure that governs Greenhouse Recruiting the same way it governs every other system in your stack — not a one-off connector bolted onto a banner.
Enforces the opt-out at the data level
Replacing the candidate's email address with a placeholder guarantees the opt-out holds, rather than depending on every downstream system honoring a flag correctly.
Reversible, cleanly
Opting back in automatically restores the candidate's original email address.
Backed by enforcement precedent
The California Attorney General reached a $1.55 million settlement with Healthline Media over sharing sensitive data with advertisers without valid consent, a reminder that recruiting platforms handling candidate communications carry real exposure when an opt-out isn't genuinely, reliably enforced.
