Online Tools and Student Privacy

Student Privacy & Online Tools Notification (COPPA Compliance)

As part of our commitment to providing high-quality digital learning experiences, Huron City Schools uses a variety of educational websites and apps to support classroom instruction. To ensure your child can safely access these tools, we are required to comply with federal privacy laws such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Please review the information below to understand how we protect your child’s privacy and how you can give consent for their use of these learning platforms.

SB 29 and COPPA Policy

To help enhance student learning, Huron City Schools uses a number of web-based tools and applications in the classroom. These platforms are operated by third-party companies—not the school itself—and may require some basic personal information to set up your child’s account, such as their name and school-issued email address.

Under a federal law called the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), these websites must notify parents and get permission before collecting personal information from children under age 13. You can learn more about COPPA by visiting: FTC COPPA FAQ.

To streamline this process, COPPA allows school districts to provide consent on behalf of parents, which helps us get students up and running on the tools they need without delay.

The third-party providers we use are required to keep your child’s information secure and private. Each company must also publish a privacy policy that outlines how student data is collected, used, and protected. A full list of the services we use, along with links to their privacy policies, is available below. 

By completing and submitting the consent form below, you’re giving us permission to share limited information with the listed operators, such as your child’s name, student ID, school email, and username, so they can access these learning platforms.

Thank you for your partnership in keeping our students safe while giving them access to tools that enrich their education.

Parental Consent Required
To ensure compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), parents and guardians must provide consent for each educational application or learning platform used by Huron City Schools. Please review the list of approved tools and submit your consent using the form provided. Your permission allows us to safely and securely support your child’s digital learning experience.
