EduNest is designed to operate under the School Official Exception defined in 34 CFR § 99.31(a)(1) of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Under this provision, EduNest functions as an extension of CCSD — acting on the district's behalf with no independent authority over student education records.

School Official Exception Criteria Met

• Performs an institutional service or function for which the district would otherwise use its own employees
• Access limited to student education records in which the district has a legitimate educational interest
• Does not re-disclose student records to unauthorized parties
• Subject to the same conditions governing access as district employees

FERPA Commitments

• No access to student education records without a fully executed District Data Processing Agreement (DPA)
• Student records processed only as directed by the district — never for EduNest's own purposes
• All student data deleted within 30 days of contract termination
• No transfer of student records to third parties without district authorization
• Full audit trail of all data access and processing events
• Breach notification to district within 72 hours of discovery

EduNest is a parent-facing and school-administrator-facing platform. Children under 13 do not have direct access to or accounts on EduNest. The platform is purpose-built for adults — parents, guardians, teachers, and school administrators.

COPPA Compliance Commitments

• No personal information collected directly from children under 13
• Platform access requires adult authentication (parents/guardians 18+ or school employees)
• No behavioral advertising or geolocation tracking of minors
• No persistent identifiers used to track children across websites or services
• Student data (when accessed under a DPA) processed only to provide educational services
• Parents maintain the right to review and delete information associated with their account

EduNest fully supports the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) requirements for K-12 technology vendors. The platform serves an exclusively educational purpose and operates within a closed, school-verified network.

CIPA Compliance Commitments

• Platform content is limited to educational materials: lesson summaries, academic records, wellness communications, transportation, and nutrition
• Role-based permissions ensure users only access content appropriate to their role (parent, teacher, administrator, nurse)
• No user-generated public content — all communications are moderated within school-verified networks
• No external internet access or links to unapproved third-party content
• No inappropriate, obscene, or harmful content on the platform
• Activity logs maintained for administrative review and compliance audits

EduNest complies with Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 388 governing the privacy and security of pupil records. We have built specific protections aligned with Nevada's student data privacy requirements, including explicit commitments for Clark County School District.

Nevada NRS 388 Commitments

• No advertising targeting using student data — ever
• No sale, rental, or trade of student data to any third party
• No behavioral profiling of students based on platform activity
• Student data used exclusively to provide the contracted educational service
• Security breach notification within 72 hours of discovery
• Full data deletion within 30 days upon contract termination
• Data Processing Agreement available immediately upon request (see Section 7)
