How we will handle student data
No student data will be loaded into SpEd Insight™ until your district signs the TX-NDPA.
Demos use made-up students. Please don't send student information.
- Before any student data: your district signs the TX-NDPA. Student data will be loaded only after that.
- Where data goes: we will host on AWS in the US, with encryption. Student data will never be sold or used for advertising.
- IEPs are education records under FERPA. Under your district's signed TX-NDPA, records will stay under your district's direct control.

Privacy
When a district signs the Texas Student Privacy Alliance's Standard Student Data Privacy Agreement (TX-NDPA), SpEd Insight will work with that district's student records as a school official under the district's direct control over how the records are used and kept. We will use student data only to provide the service to that district, will not re-disclose it except as the district directs or the law allows, and will never sell it or use it for advertising. No student data will be loaded until your district signs the TX-NDPA.
IEPs are education records under FERPA. Under your district's signed TX-NDPA, records will stay under your district's direct control.
Security
SpEd Insight is being built around NIST CSF 2.0; AWS US; only HIPAA-eligible AWS services; encryption in transit and at rest; MFA.
Sign-in
SpEd Insight is built for sign-in with your district's Google or Microsoft account. Multi-factor authentication will be required for every account before any student data is loaded.
