The Sudbury Public Schools obtains student data privacy agreements for all of its online resources through our membership with the Student Data Privacy Consortium (SDPC). Although the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) protects children under 13 from commercial use of their data, these contracts extend that standard to all of our students.
In addition, to their privacy policies and federal laws, the Sudbury Public Schools uses data practices deliberately designed to mitigate risk, including not using student names in most online systems and only sharing the minimum data needed to make a resource useful in the classroom.
