Sobre este puesto de Senior Privacy Counsel, Tinder en Matchgroup
Match Group is a leading provider of dating products across the globe. Our portfolio includes Tinder, Hinge, Match, Meetic, PlentyOfFish, OkCupid, The League, HER, and others, each designed to spark meaningful connections for singles worldwide. Creating a sense of belonging doesn’t stop at our products - it’s the foundation of every team we hire.
This role is the primary privacy legal advisor for Tinder, with additional support for other Match Group teams and cross-brand initiatives. You’ll be a trusted partner to product, engineering, trust & safety, marketing, and legal colleagues, helping them move quickly while making sound, well-reasoned privacy decisions for some of the world’s most recognized consumer apps. We’re a technology company at heart, building products used by millions of people to create real connections. Privacy is central to that mission – helping users feel safe, respected, and in control of their data.
Successful candidates will have experience providing practical, authoritative guidance to cross-functional teams navigating complex regulatory landscapes, including GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and emerging global requirements related to privacy, cybersecurity, and AI. Experience advising on product privacy reviews and regulatory assessments, including data protection impact assessments, is a must. This role requires someone who is equally comfortable digging into the details with privacy colleagues, giving on-your-feet advice to business leaders, and explaining complex issues in plain language – all in the same day.
How you’ll make an impact:
Advise product, engineering, and data teams on privacy requirements for new features, products, and data uses for brands like Tinder, providing clear, risk-based guidance that enables the business.
Partner with the Data Protection Officer and privacy colleagues on Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), Legitimate Interests Assessments (LIAs), and similar assessments as required under global privacy laws.
Serve as a key privacy legal resource for Trust & Safety teams on user safety, moderation, and related data use.
Advise marketing and research teams on privacy requirements for campaigns, consumer research, and other initiatives.
Support the Legal team on privacy-related aspects of vendor and commercial agreements, including DPAs in privacy-heavy deals.
Translate complex legal and regulatory requirements into practical guidance that non-legal partners can act on.
Contribute to privacy documentation, templates, and guidance that help the team work efficiently and consistently.
Support data incident response processes, including breach assessment and regulatory notification analysis.
Track global privacy developments and help the business adapt to new requirements.
Support audits and regulatory inquiries, and contribute to Match Group’s global privacy program.

Are a collaborative team player who builds strong relationships across Legal, Privacy, Security, Product, and the business.
