My Team
In this section, you can manage all the connections and access to your consultants’ accounts.
We remind you that Sprint CV places the consultant as the owner of his data, which means that the consultant grants you access to his data and, according to GDPR rules, also has the right to revoke it at any given time.
In My Team, you can perform the following tasks:
- Invite others – invite consultants by using their email address.
- If the consultant isn’t registered in Sprint CV yet, you will see his email address as a pending invitation. Because of GDPR rules, we cannot store email addresses without the consultant’s consent.
- If the consultant is already registered, you will see his photo and name and you also can send him reminders to accept your invitation.
- Pending invitation – you will see all your invitations, pending of approval from the consultant’s side.
- Pending consent – all the consultants’ accounts you have initiated using the “Add Consultant” option on your homepage. They have 30 days to express their consent. If no consent is given in 30 days, their account will be deleted.
- Edit the profile of a given consultant – the consultant has given you his consent to edit his profile on his behalf.
- Request to edit a profile – you ask a given consultant for the consent to edit the consultant’s profile on his behalf.
- Message – send a message to the consultant’s email address.
- Delete – you can delete the connection to the consultant at any moment.
We advise you to read the consultant’s tutorial regarding My Team, so you know how both sides work.
