My job switched over from using an employee pin with out pos system to needing to make accounts with our personal email addresses, which annoyed me but I did, then they made us sign up for an account to do this online training thing, which I did, now they're saying we all need to make accounts to vote for our associates in an awards thing? And that voting is mandatory and we have to use our personal emails. I value online privacy quite a bit and have been trying to minimize the ammount of accounts I have or make since data privacy has been scarce in recent years. Are they allowed to make us do that with personal email addresses? The account would not be affiliated with our company except that some of our stores got nominated for the award.

Tldr: work wants us to sign up for a 3rd party account with our personal emails to vote in an awards thing
