i bet that will change in time. especially when they see a large percentage of people arent bothering to sign up to it.

That depends if you are told it's mandatory and they want your id number/sign in

But that would be against their own privacy policy where they tell you you must keep your id and password secret.

the chances are it will be designed so that they can see what you have done without needing your user id or password. avanta have a site that works the same way.

Must admit i thought the jobs were checked before going on the site because otherwise it would be full of spammy "pay us £400 and you'll earn 10k a week" type ads which you get on gumtree etc

That would be against everything everyone is saying.

Don't think DWP will do that, as it would get leaked. It would be a gross breach of privacy if they did this, as they have the option to allow DWP access.

Private WP providers are operating in the wild west & will try anything on, don't play by same rules, very useful for government & DWP.

You've said your advisor at Avanta can see your online jobsearch with them.
Are you certain of that, has your advisor said this or have you seen them looking at it ?

Did they ask your permission or did you give it ?

I do not even see how that can be as you can register with your firstname only and then the JC have nothing to track it to as there could be a million Sarahs on there.
