Solution 40361: Student Data Privacy Policy for TI Software and Apps

What student data is collected by TI software and apps, and how is it used?

TI Software Products and web-based applications

  • TI only collects a minimum amount of student data needed to associate a specific user for registration/authentication. This consists of student name, email address, and App username with authenticating password.
  • Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), these data elements are classified as “directory information” and are not generally considered to be harmful if disclosed.
  • TI respects student data privacy and protects this directory information in accordance with TI’s Student Data Privacy Policy education.ti.com/en/product-resources/datapolicy.
  • This policy describes TI practices for handling student data, including practices which are sometimes the subject of data privacy agreements proposed by schools.
  • TI Software Products and web-based applications are provided under an End User License Agreement which incorporates TI’s Student Data Privacy Policy. 
  • TI does not receive access to students' Google accounts when they download or use TI Software Products and web-based applications.
  • Adding a student using the OrgAdmin website and then removing them does not delete their account. If an account needs to be deleted please contact TI-Cares support.

Please be advised: TI does not sign data privacy agreements with individual school districts, since the student data collected is minimal and appropriately protected under TI’s Student Data Privacy Policy and the applicable TI End User License Agreement for the Software or App.
