If your administrator or IT department is asking about SLP Toolkit compliance with the Virginia student data privacy laws, we've got you covered. You can find information about how to comply with the regulations below. Although we are well versed in student data privacy laws, we are not legal experts (we stick to speech pathology and software). So you should consult your district about how to fully comply too.

You can view all the student data elements that we collect, along with the reason we collect them in the knowledge base article below. You can print out a copy or save a PDF for your records.

The VSPA is a collaboration of Virginia school districts that share common concerns around student privacy. The goal of the VSPA is to set standards of both practice and expectations around student privacy such that all parties involved have a common understanding of expectations. Here is a link to the Virginia Student Privacy Alliance within the SDPC. VSPA

For school districts that are VSPA members within the Student Data Privacy Consortium (SDPC), we've got you covered. You can download the agreement they have provided here (click here)

NOTE: If your district would prefer a generic agreement, you can generate and download a signed data sharing & privacy agreement (DSPA) using this form (click here).

Hopefully, this demystifies the Virginia student privacy laws and you can get on with helping the students :) As always, let us know if there are any questions about this or other privacy standards by sending an email to privacy@slptoolkit.com or contacting support.
