Software in Compliance with FERPA and SOPIPA

(SEATTLE – October 5, 2017) – ClassFlowTM, the next-generation of lesson delivery software, was recognized by iKeepSafe, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, for its compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Student Online Personal Information Protection Act (SOPIPA). As part of this achievement, ClassFlow will display both the FERPA and SOPIPA badges to note that the software has been assessed and approved by iKeepSafe.

iKeepSafe Privacy Certifications simplify privacy compliance for education technology vendors and make it easy for districts, schools, and parents to identify websites, apps, data management platforms, and other technology products that comply with various privacy laws governing student data. Products that carry the iKeepSafe badge provide educators and parents with the assurance that the product meets iKeepSafe’s standards in the areas of privacy, safety, and security.

“Promethean continues to be committed to safeguarding students in every way,” said Ravi Angadi, Chief Products and Strategy Officer, PrometheanTM. “Topping that list includes our commitment to protecting the personal information of students and teachers who use ClassFlow. As one of the first companies to sign the Student Privacy Pledge, Promethean is committed to meeting the security and privacy requirements of our customers. Earning iKeepSafe’s FERPA and California Student Privacy certifications further proves our commitment to our students and teachers.”

In order to receive FERPA and SOPIPA, iKeepSafe conducted a thorough manual and technical review of ClassFlow to assess its compliance with iKeepSafe Privacy Assessment guidelines. In order to keep the badge, iKeepSafe conducts an annual renewal to ensure that ClassFlow remains in good standing with both FERPA and SOPIPA.

“By earning the iKeepSafe Privacy FERPA and California Student Data Privacy certifications, Promethean has demonstrated their absolute dedication to safeguarding student data,” said Holly Hawkins, President of iKeepSafe. “Users can feel assured that this product meets iKeepSafe’s quality standard of data privacy protection.”
