X may also gather work and educational background, according to the policy. On September 29, the new privacy policy will go into effect.
“Recommend potential jobs for you, to share with potential employers when you apply for a job” is what this would entail. Rumour has it that X wants to start providing recruiting services.
Reports state that X Corp purchased Laskie, a tech hiring agency, in May. It was the first corporate takeover since Elon Musk paid $44 billion (£34.7 billion) to acquire Twitter, as it was then known, in the previous year.
The new policy states “We may collect and use your personal information (such as your employment history, educational history, employment preferences, skills and abilities, job search activity and engagement, and so on) to recommend potential jobs for you, to share with potential employers when you apply for a job, to enable employers to find potential candidates, and to show you more relevant advertising.”

For matching reasons, biometric information can be taken from the official ID and the selfie photo. For those who desire, this will also enable us to link an account to a real person. This can be done by processing their official identification document. Additionally, this will strengthen platform security and aid X in thwarting impersonation efforts.” Transfer News: Aston Villa sign Clement Lenglét on loan deal from Barcelona
