July 14, 2021—Precise Cyber Solutions (SurfWisely) has been awarded the iKeepSafe COPPA badge in recognition of their alignment with iKeepSafe’s guidelines surrounding the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). As part of this achievement, Precise Cyber Solutions (SurfWisely) will display the iKeepSafe COPPA Assessment badge to identify that the product has been proactively and independently assessed by an experienced privacy protection organization.

The iKeepSafe COPPA Assessment badge assists schools to easily identify websites, apps, data management platforms or other technology products that are in compliance with COPPA, a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. Products that carry the iKeepSafe Safe Harbor program seal provide educators and parents with assurance that the product is compliant with COPPA, a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Rule designed to ensure that parents remain in control of personal information collected from their children online.

Precise Cyber Solutions (SurfWisely) is an innovative CyberSecurity awareness training gamified app using sports to teach students cybersecurity concepts and keep them safe in an engaging way. Their mission is to create the best security awareness training students will understand and enjoy.

“iKeepSafe congratulates Precise Cyber Solutions (SurfWisely) on taking this essential step in protecting youths’ personal information,” said Amber Lindsey, President and CEO of iKeepSafe. “Each day, more school districts and parents are making privacy and safety a priority. It is important that they have a quick means of determining whether products are safe to use.”

Products participating in the iKeepSafe COPPA assessment must undergo annual re-evaluation to continue displaying the iKeepSafe badge. For the evaluation, an independent privacy expert reviewed Precise Cyber Solutions (SurfWisely), their privacy policy and practices, as well as their data security practices.

For over a decade, iKeepSafe has been a trusted resource for schools and parents looking for balanced information about safe and healthy use of connected technologies.
