Privacy Policy

Cedar Valley School District ("District," "we," "our," "us") values privacy and security. This Privacy Policy explains how CVSD Go collects, uses, shares, stores, and protects information when users access the link directory, short-link redirection services, and authenticated staff features.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on your use of CVSD Go, we may collect:

• Account identifiers for authenticated staff users (for example, user ID, display name, email).
• Administrative metadata (role flags, moderation actions, timestamps).
• Link records and operational fields (slug, destination URL, descriptions, schedules, access status).
• Technical usage events such as click counts, request timing, and security-related logs.
• Support submissions and comments entered through district support workflows.

2. How We Use Information

We process information to:

• Provide directory search and secure redirection functionality.
• Administer links, folders, permissions, and support workflows.
• Detect misuse, protect users, and maintain system security.
• Investigate incidents and comply with legal or policy requirements.
• Improve service quality, reliability, and accessibility.

3. Legal Basis and Education Context

CVSD Go is operated in an educational and public-service context. Processing may be based on public interest, legitimate educational operations, legal obligations, or user consent where required.

4. Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell personal information. We may share data with approved service providers (for example, hosting, authentication, and infrastructure providers) under contractual or legal safeguards.

We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, records request obligations, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of students, staff, and systems.

5. Data Retention

We retain information only as long as needed for operational, educational, legal, audit, and security purposes. Retention periods may vary by record type and applicable regulation.

6. Security Measures

We apply administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the risk profile, including access controls, role-based permissions, logging, and infrastructure security practices.

No internet service can be guaranteed fully secure, but we continuously review and improve controls.

7. Children and Student Data

CVSD Go may be used by students and families to access district resources. Student information is handled in line with district obligations and applicable student privacy laws.

8. Third-Party Links and Services

CVSD Go redirects users to internal and external destinations. Once redirected, privacy practices are governed by the destination site. Review third-party privacy notices before sharing personal data.

9. Your Rights and Requests

Depending on applicable law, users may request access, correction, deletion, or restriction related to personal information processed through CVSD Go. We may need to verify identity before processing requests.

10. Contact

Privacy questions, rights requests, and security concerns can be sent to office@cvsd.live.

11. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect legal, operational, or technical changes. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
