What this law does
Before a public school, including a charter school and a university school for profoundly gifted pupils, allows a pupil to use any school service or provides a pupil with any technology, it must post on its Internet website information that summarizes the laws governing school service providers, lists each school service provider for the school, and confirms that each has created a plan for the security of data concerning pupils.
The posted information must also describe any other actions taken to protect the security of data collected by a school service provider and the manner in which a pupil or the parent or legal guardian of a pupil may report suspicious activity relating to the use of a school service. At the beginning of each school year, each public school must communicate to the pupils enrolled and their parents and legal guardians the availability of that information and how to locate it.
Section 1 of the 2019 act on school service providers and pupil technology requires a public school to post certain information on the school's website before a pupil uses a school service of a school service provider. That act became effective on for all purposes other than adopting regulations and performing administrative tasks.
