Data Privacy

Data Privacy Agreement (DPA)

Compugrade takes student data privacy seriously. We are committed to full transparency in how student data is collected, used, and protected.

Compugrade – Student Data Privacy

Student Data Is Never Sold

Compugrade does not sell, share, or monetize any student data. Data is used solely to deliver and grade assignments.

FERPA & COPPA Compliant

Our platform is designed in full compliance with FERPA and COPPA requirements, protecting the privacy of students of all ages.

School-Controlled Data

Your school or district retains ownership of all student data. Data is deleted upon request or at the end of a license term.

Request a Signed DPA

Many districts require a signed Data Privacy Agreement before deployment. We're happy to execute a DPA with your district.

What Data Does Compugrade Collect?

Compugrade collects only the minimum data necessary to provide autograding and classroom management services. This includes:

  • Student name and school-issued email address (for account authentication)
  • Assignment submission data within Microsoft 365 documents (used solely for grading)
  • Grade and progress records (accessible only to the student and their teacher)
  • Usage logs for troubleshooting and platform improvement (anonymized)

Compugrade does not collect browsing history, advertising identifiers, or any personal data unrelated to the educational purpose of the platform.

Requesting a Signed DPA

If your school district requires a signed Data Privacy Agreement prior to deployment, please contact us. Our team will work with your privacy officer or legal department to execute a customized DPA that meets your district's specific requirements.

We support standard district DPA templates including those from the Student Data Privacy Consortium (SDPC) and state-specific frameworks. Turnaround is typically within 5–7 business days.
