Student Data Privacy


  • Oak Park Unified School District prioritizes keeping student information private and safe from exploitation.  State and federal legislation mandates ALL vendors with access to student data or student accounts adhere to strict guidelines and safeguards concerning the use of student data. This includes the use of student email accounts for logging into a vendor's website or software application and any subsequent data collected about a student through their use of that website or software. The following provides an overview of the federal and state laws that the district operates under and the district's plan for remaining in compliance with all applicable student data privacy regulations. 
    • Federal Laws: CIPA, FERPA, COPPA
    • California Laws: SOPIPA, CCPA, CPRA
    • Google Workspace for Education (G Suite)
    • Student Data Privacy

    The district constantly works to ensure that all new third-party companies handling our students' data meet the standards of the CSDPA.  View the vendors who have signed the CSDPA with OPUSD
