Our Proactive Approach to Privacy
As recognized leaders in student data privacy, GoGuardian is independently certified as FERPA compliant and is a proud signatory of the 2020 Student Privacy Pledge. Our dedicated Privacy Team works across all divisions of the company to implement proactive privacy protections.

The GoGuardian Commitment to Privacy
GoGuardian recognizes the trust educators place in us — trust that our technologies help schools protect students’ safety, and trust that the company protects students’ privacy.
We envision a future where all learners are ready and inspired to solve the world’s greatest challenges, and that vision helps drive our decisions — from product design to our thoughtful approach to student privacy and data protection.
How Does GoGuardian Protect Student Data?
How Does GoGuardian Provide Transparency?
We’ve created indicators and notifications to help schools and districts inform students when GoGuardian is being used on their device, including the following:

On devices where GoGuardian is being used, we prominently display the GoGuardian shield icon at the top of the Chrome browser to provide transparency to students at all times.
Schools can also provide students with a clear notification that indicates when GoGuardian Admin and/or Beacon are active on their school-managed account, school-managed device, and/or school system internet.
On devices where GoGuardian Teacher is being used, an additional icon in the browser bar indicates that a student is in an active GoGuardian Teacher session.
Certifications and Partnerships
GoGuardian products comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Rule (COPPA), and all applicable state-level student data privacy laws.
