Frequently Asked Questions
No. Student data belongs to your district, and we use it only to run EntryPoint for your schools. We never sell it, rent it, or use it for advertising or marketing. We share it only when your district directs us to or when the law requires it, and our Data Processing Agreement puts this in writing. We may also use anonymized data, with all personal details removed and no way to trace it back to a student, to improve EntryPoint and understand trends across schools.
No. We never use student data to train AI models. Staff feedback on how well it did a task may help improve EntryPoint, but student information is not used.
We're built to meet FERPA. Under it, we act as a "school official" working on your district's behalf and under its direct control. That means we use student records only for purposes your district approves, we don't pass them on to anyone else, and we delete them when our contract ends. We also follow other student-privacy laws that apply to your schools.
Your data is stored with Google Cloud and Supabase in secure data centers in the United States. It's encrypted while it's stored and whenever it moves between your browser and our systems. Backups are encrypted too.
Only the staff your district gives access to, and each person's role decides what they see. A counselor sees students at their assigned school, while a district administrator can see across your district's schools. Your data is kept separate from other districts' data, so no one outside your district can see it.
We have a documented plan for responding to security incidents. If an incident ever affected your data, we would notify your district within 72 hours, explain what happened and what we're doing about it, and help you with any notices the law requires.
Yes, through your district. Under FERPA, parents make these requests to their school, and we help your district respond quickly.
You can ask for a full export of your data first. Then we delete your district's data within 90 days of your contract ending, including backups, and confirm in writing once it's done.
