Thanks for this. Do you think uploading the CV might not be enough? And might they be able to see stuff like Linkedin age, connections etc?

Thank you.
this is dependent on the permissions the site requires for ur linkedIn. typically, they will require ur profile information and will be able to use ur linkedIn account for verification purposes. when the same webssite keeps banning u, this could mean the problem lies with ur linkedIn account nd not the content of your CV.

if your linkedin profile very little information it can sometimes cause problems during verification.try filling more your profile details and make it look more complete
Depending on the permissions, it may access your name, profile details, email or other authorized data. Check the LinkedIn consent screen and revoke the app under permitted services if needed, but bans may also depend on the website's own verification rules.

When you click connect they use the LinkedIn OAuth flow and can request the r_emailaddress and r_liteprofile scopes which give them your email name headline current company and profile picture and they can also see up to fifty of your connections if your profile is public

Avoid linking if you aren't sure, because the LinkedIn V2 API can pull your email, job history and connections, which they could use to track and ban you.

A website can reveal useful information about a business, including its services, target audience, and online presence. LinkedIn can also help businesses build professional connections and drive relevant traffic to their websites. Keeping your website updated and maintaining a consistent brand presence across platforms can improve credibility.
i believe that the critical point here is the difference between linkedIn login nd verification according to their policy.these are two disttinct processes.updating your CV will be pointless if the problem is caused by the latter.i suggest u try checking the permissions u grant them first.
