Student Data Privacy (SOPPA)
(SOPPA) - Teacher Application Request Workflow
Effective July 1, 2021, the Student Online Personal Protection Act requires Illinois public schools to enter into a student data privacy agreement with any educational technology partner that collects student personal data (i.e., names or login accounts). A list of approved educational technology partners with a signed agreement can be found on the EdTech website.
To comply with and maintain the strict guidelines of SOPPA, applications, online services, and extensions must be reviewed for the type of student data being collected, and an agreement must be signed with the provider before it can be used with students. We have partnered with the Learning Technology Center (SDPC) to manage our SOPPA-compliant agreements and publish compliant technology services. To view current agreements AND request a new application, visit the SDPC website.
**To request a new application, click the button in the upper right labeled "Staff - Don't See Your Request? Request It". This will launch a form that can be used to request the resource. Please include as much information as possible about the resource.
Please keep in mind that the signed agreement is only for student personal data. If a partner declines to sign the agreement or is not responsive, the technology resource can still be used with adult accounts or, if applicable, by students without registering.
