EdPrivacy

EdPrivacy refers to the principles and practices aimed at protecting the personal data and privacy of students in educational environments. It involves ensuring that educational institutions handle information—like academic records and personal details—safely and responsibly. This includes complying with laws and regulations related to student data, such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) in the U.S. By prioritizing EdPrivacy, schools and colleges aim to build trust with students and parents, safeguarding against unauthorized access and breaches, while promoting a culture of privacy awareness in the digital age.
