ZipRecruiter has some automated surveys that inadvertently require the applicant to disclose their race and ethnicity even though they provide the checkbox to opt out.

    IANAL and I have never had this experience. But intuitively, maybe send them an email/complaint asking about it, eg via their tech support or privacy offices, and referencing the relevant laws. If you need to fill this out quickly, try calling them instead. Give it a few weeks (if via email), then maybe contact relevant offices. If you live in certain states in CA, you may try to get this elevated.
