Dice Opt Out: Delete Your Data or Limit Profile Exposure

To opt out of Dice's sale of personal information or request deletion, use the official Exercising Your Rights form. Enter your name and email, then choose the request that matches your goal. Dice also publishes privacy@dice.com and 1-888-321-DICE (3423) for privacy questions and requests.

A Dice profile can be part of an active job search. Before deleting it, distinguish recruiter visibility, your account, data-sale choices and applications you already sent. Changing one setting does not automatically resolve the others.

Decide between profile visibility, sale opt-out and deletion.
Open the official form and enter the relevant name and email.
Select the privacy action that matches your goal.
Keep the request record and any identity-verification reply.
Contact employers separately about copies they retain.

Choose the outcome before submitting

Your goal	Starting point	Important limitation
Limit recruiter discovery	Current account/profile visibility settings	Does not recall earlier recruiter copies
Stop sale of personal information	Sale opt-out choice on the rights form	Does not necessarily close the account
Request personal-information deletion	Deletion choice on the rights form	Verification and retention exceptions may apply
Correct inaccurate information	Account updates or privacy@dice.com	Specify the inaccurate fields
Change targeted-advertising choices	Link on the rights page and preference signals	Browser preferences are separate from account deletion

Open the Dice rights form directly. The page describes rights for several US states; the URL's legacy name does not mean every visitor should assume identical eligibility. The privacy policy provides the fuller regional and account context.

Complete the name and email form

Dice rights form with access sale opt-out and deletion choices checked November 2, 2026 — Public source checked November 2, 2026. No personal information or request submitted.

The observed form requires Name and Email. Its three request choices cover access, sale opt-out and deletion. They are radio selections, so choose the specific action you intend rather than assuming the page submits all three together.

Use the email associated with the relevant Dice relationship where possible. If an older email or account is involved, explain that through the privacy contact rather than creating a new job profile just to make a request. Do not enter invented information to bypass a matching problem.

The page also includes a separate advertising-choice link and mentions opt-out preference signals. Keep a private note of the action you selected and the submission date. A form receipt is evidence of submission; it is not evidence that recruiter records or all Dice-held information have already been deleted.

Decide whether you still need the account

Dice's policy describes account updates, deactivation and deletion, including an account-deletion route through the profile dashboard. We did not sign in or inspect a real jobseeker account, so this guide does not invent current dashboard button names.

If you want to keep applying for jobs while reducing discovery, inspect the current visibility options first. Read what each setting changes. If you instead want the account closed and data deleted, state both goals clearly and ask how ongoing applications or messages are affected.

Before making an irreversible account choice, save records you need for your own job search. This could include the names of employers you contacted and application dates. Do not download or redistribute another person's information in the process.

Understand recruiter and employer copies

A profile's visibility is not the same as the copies already shared in an application or downloaded by a recruiter. A Dice response does not by itself establish that an employer erased its own recruiting records. Ask the recipient directly about those records when that is your concern.

Professional information can also appear in unrelated prospecting databases. The ZoomInfo guide and Apollo guide cover separate B2B systems. Their processes should be used only when you have a reason to address those providers, rather than treating them as part of Dice's account controls.

If your concern is a specific job application, identify the employer, date and communication channel. That evidence helps separate a platform privacy request from an employer's recruitment-retention process. Avoid sending full identity documents to a generic recruiter address simply because the platform is involved.

Verification, retention and realistic timing

Dice says it may need sufficient information to verify the requester or an authorized representative. Agent requests can require proof of permission and direct confirmation from the individual. Use an official reply path and ask how to provide additional evidence securely.

Its policy allows retention needed for legal obligations, dispute resolution and agreement enforcement. Closing an account therefore should not be described as an immediate purge of all backups, security records or transaction history. Ask the response to explain retained categories if that matters to you.

The inspected first-stage form does not display a universal completion deadline. Ask which response window applies and keep any extension notice. We inspected public pages only; no account change, request submission, confirmation email or successful deletion was tested.

Check for reappearance without recreating exposure

After receiving a response, review the specific profile or contact route that concerned you. If an old listing still appears in search results, distinguish the source page from a search engine's cached description. If the source is corrected but search results lag, the Google personal-information removal guide covers that separate task.

Reusing an account, updating a resume or sharing a fresh application can create new records. Review visibility again when restarting a job search. Keep any past privacy confirmation so a later issue can be tied to the right account and time period.

Use the opt-out guide hub and data broker directory for other named exposures. A free privacy scan can help identify supported public contact listings, but it is not an audit of an employer's private applicant-tracking system.

Write a focused follow-up

For an unresolved Dice request, identify the original submission date, the email tied to the account and the action selected. Ask whether the request is waiting for verification, whether it has been completed, and what retained information or recipient copies fall outside the response. Keep separate questions about a particular employer with that employer.

If you changed emails during a job search, mention the previous address only when it helps identify the account. Avoid creating a new searchable profile as a workaround for a privacy request. A useful follow-up clarifies the existing account and the desired outcome without adding a fresh resume or expanding the number of organizations that receive your information.

Frequently asked questions

Does sale opt-out delete my resume?

Do not assume that. Sale opt-out and deletion are separate selections. Use account controls and the appropriate privacy request for the outcome you want.

Can I keep applying while changing privacy settings?

That depends on the account options and processing involved. Review current visibility settings and ask Dice about the impact before deleting an account you still use.

Can Dice retrieve every resume a recruiter downloaded?

This guide does not establish that. Contact the recruiter or employer about independently held copies, and ask Dice to explain the scope of its own response.

What if my information is inaccurate?

The rights page directs users to update their account or email privacy@dice.com with the concern and requested correction. Describe the fields accurately and avoid adding unnecessary sensitive information.
