You are here
There has been a lot of press about some of the issues regarding privacy and student data that is collected by schools. The Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA) has joined with the Future of Privacy Forum to announce a new pledge for companies that make products for K-12 students. Companies who have signed the pledge promise not to sell student information or target ads based on students’ behavior. These companies will also only use data for specific educational purposes and will impose limits on how long that information is held.
