FERPA Ironclad.
Your legal safety is not a feature; it is the foundation. We operate under the "School Official" exception, providing a fortress for your data.
Verified Compliant: 20 U.S.C. § 1232g
EdIntel Professional fully adheres to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). We function as an institutional agent, subject to the direct control of the district.
Encryption at Rest
All databases are secured with AES-256 encryption. Your data is mathematically indecipherable without the unique keys generated for your district node.
Zero-Training Policy
We have stringent legal agreements with our AI providers. Your student data is processed in a stateless environment and NEVER used to train public models.
Professional Isolation
Tenant data is logically isolated. A breach in one node (theoretically impossible) cannot laterally move to access your data.
Cryptographic Deletion
When you hit delete, we don't just hide the file. We execute a cryptographic shredding process that makes recovery impossible.
Role and Responsibility
Under FERPA's "School Official" exception (34 CFR § 99.31(a)(1)(i)(B)), EdIntel functions as a vendor performing an institutional service.
- We perform a service for which the school would otherwise use its own employees.
- We are under the direct control of the agency or institution with respect to the use and maintenance of education records.
- We are subject to the requirements of 34 CFR § 99.33(a) governing the use and redisclosure of personally identifiable information from education records.
