California is one of the states leading the charge in protecting student data privacy and security. In this letter to members, CETPA recommends education technology decision makers refrain from signing or renewing contracts with edtech vendors who are not communicating their compliance with federal and state privacy laws through a third-party certification, such as iKeepSafe.

Securly provides web-filtering solutions to schools across US. As an education technology company, and especially as a web-filter company, we have had to be extremely careful about student data privacy. Sometime last year, schools in California began to even demand compliance with latest student data privacy laws. We turned to iKeepSafe for help, and it was a wonderful experience end to end. We have a single point of contact all along - Holly. She spend time with the founders of the company to better understand the product, while also explaining and educating us on the various laws that apply, and how compliance works.

COO, Buncee

Student privacy is a top priority at Buncee, which was why we went through the process of becoming a COPPA compliant tool. However, when we started looking into COPPA compliance, we realized that it was an overwhelming undertaking. This led us to iKeepSafe for guidance, and the moment we began working with them, we were put at ease.

iKeepSafe took the time to understand our product and audience, and they listened to my thoughts and concerns. We had numerous discussions about student access. They examined the site from all user perspectives, made recommendations to enhance child safety which we quickly implemented, and answered all of my questions. Their guidance was personal and uncomplicated. Buncee wears the COPPA badge proudly, and we are very honored to be working with iKeepSafe to ensure that our students' privacy is protected.
