How we work with you to safeguard data privacy
国产精品 is designed to help districts protect the privacy and integrity of their student information.
On our platform, educators share sensitive information only with authorized parties, and districts have fine-grained controls to share only the specific information they wish to share. 国产精品 supports district data privacy efforts by minimizing shared data and providing visibility and control over software adoption.
国产精品 control Student Data
With 国产精品, districts can see and control all data shared with their authorized partners in one 国产精品 dashboard rather than having to access multiple systems. When a district uses 国产精品, it maintains complete control over what data to share and in what circumstances. 国产精品 will always delete district data from our systems upon request.
For district applications, the district authorizes all data transfers, specifying which students need access and the specific data to be exchanged with each application. For 国产精品 Library applications that teachers may access and use in accordance with their district policies, districts may control or turn off the minimal data sharing (first name, last initial, class) required to set up student accounts. Alternately, districts may choose to turn off access to the 国产精品 Library for their district teachers all together.
We limit data sharing by schools
On 国产精品, districts are able to minimize the amount of student information shared with third party applications. For example, applications in 国产精品 Library require only first name, last initial, and grade level for creating student accounts. Role-based access allows authorized district users to access only the features they need, without being able to modify important settings. And we proactively prevent end-user mistakes from leaking unauthorized data by placing automatic security holds on unusual data transfers.
