Bill of Rights for Data Privacy and Security

New York State law (Education Law § 2-d) requires all schools in New York to create a Parents' Bill of Rights for Data Privacy and Security and make it available on their website.

This document explains important information for parents and students (including guardians and anyone acting as a parent to a student under 18) about laws that protect personal student information.

Supplemental Information for contracts with third-party companies

New York State law (Education Law § 2-d) requires schools to share information about contracts with companies that receive student, teacher, or principal data.

This information, called "Supplemental Information for Contracts," explains:

  • Which companies the school works with.
  • What data these companies receive (e.g., student names, grades, teacher performance evaluations).
  • Why the companies need this data (e.g., to provide certain educational services).
