Educational Technology Privacy

Educational technology privacy refers to the protection of students’ personal information when using digital tools and platforms in schools. As educators and institutions increasingly rely on technology for teaching and learning, it is crucial to safeguard sensitive data, such as names, ages, and academic records. Privacy rights ensure that this information is collected and used responsibly, with clear consent from parents or guardians. Data protection laws mandate secure storage and limited access to personal data, promoting students’ rights and fostering a safe learning environment. Ultimately, it balances innovation with the responsibility to protect student privacy.
