Q by Aequitas Solutions Earns iKeepSafe California & FERPA Privacy Badges

Aequitas Solutions, Inc. and its Student Information System Q have been awarded the iKeepSafe FERPA and California Privacy badges in recognition of their alignment with iKeepSafe’s best practice guidelines for the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the extensive California and Colorado state privacy laws. The badges signify that Aequitas and Q have been proactively and independently assessed by iKeepSafe, an experienced privacy protection organization.

iKeepSafe Privacy Assessment badges assist schools to easily identify websites, apps, data management platforms, or other technology products that are in compliance with various privacy laws governing student data. Products that carry the iKeepSafe seal provide educators and parents with assurance that the product meets iKeepSafe’s standards in the areas of privacy, safety, and security.

At Aequitas Solutions, Inc. we strive to provide the best Student Information System (SIS) and SIS centric services in the industry. Student data privacy and security is a critically important component of both our company and product success and an important factor in building and keeping our long-term relationships with our clients.

We are thrilled to be the first SIS vendor to receive the iKeepSafe certification.
