What is this URL: This is not a public API route, it is a proxy to a service called Clearbit to enrich professional emails with public company and person data from multiple public sources such as AngelList or LinkedIn (cf https://clearbit.com/enrichment and https://clearbit.com/our-data).
By using this route, you are using Clearbit with our credentials. Most importantly, we don’t store any data on our end when accessing this route. We don't own this data, it is stored on Clearbit servers.
Why are we using them: We entered in business with Clearbit to help our users get more insights on their webinar sign ups from public data sources.
Are they GDPR ready: Clearbit is GDPR compliant (cf https://clearbit.com/gdpr). You can claim your data here: https://claim.clearbit.com/claim.
We took all the steps necessary with Clearbit to ensure our process was GDPR compliant. However, this information makes us double guess it. Therefore, we are revaluating the compliancy of this specific process and in the meantime, we have deactivated this route.
