Third-Party Contracts/Agreements
Third-Party Vendor Contracts/Agreements
A third-party contractor or vendor is any person or entity, other than an educational agency, that receives student data or teacher or principal data from an educational agency pursuant to a contract or other agreement for purposes of providing services.
An agreement that covers the requirements defined by Ed Law 2-d must exist either directly between the school district and the third-party vendor, or, if the product is part of a service obtained through a BOCES CoSer, an agreement between that BOCES and the product vendor. A vendor cannot achieve compliance unilaterally. Please look below to find resources that can assist you with understanding third-party contracts/agreements.
