Point of Data Transfer

BuzzFeed is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive work environment, starting from our application process. From our annual diversity report to our Employee Resource Groups, we make diversity a centerpiece of our hiring practices and employee experience. Part of that is allowing candidates to voluntarily complete the following survey that assists in our efforts to ensure equal employment opportunities globally.

Buzzfeed is required to ask some of the questions below under applicable law in certain jurisdictions, and we include the information we receive in anonymized, aggregated mandatory reporting. We ask additional questions because we believe it will assist us in improving our diversity, inclusion, and belonging initiatives. However, you are not required to answer any of the questions in order to submit and have your application considered by us. If you choose to answer these questions, you are providing this information only for the uses described here, and not for any other purpose.

Information collected as part of this survey :

is voluntary;
is anonymous; is not tied to your individual application; and does not have any bearing on your application; we will not know if you complete this survey or not;
is used in aggregate form only, for use in anonymized reporting related to our diversity and inclusion efforts.

This information will be stored in Greenhouse (you can review Greenhouse’s privacy policy here). Access inside BuzzFeed to this information is restricted to the People team. Greenhouse will retain this information, along with the rest of the information provided in your application, 18 months from your application date, after which all application information will be anonymized and stored only in that form. Once information is anonymized, neither we nor Greenhouse can determine the individual to whom it once belonged.

Please select “Acknowledge” to indicate that you agree to our processing of this information for this purpose (if you do not wish to agree, do not complete the questions)

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Form CC-305

Page 1 of 1

OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
