Appendix I: Data Privacy Policies

These policies apply to all American International School Chennai’s (AISC) Employees, Parents / Guardians, Students, Contractors, Sub-contractors, Consultants, and Guests.

AISC Institutional Data:

AISC Institutional Data is a generalized term that typically represents data classified as Confidential or Non-confidential. This term is often used interchangeably with sensitive and personal data. Institutional Data is defined as all data created, owned, or licensed by AISC.

Confidential/Protected Data

Data should be classified as Confidential/Protected when the unauthorized disclosure, alteration or destruction of that data could cause a significant level of risk to AISC, or if it would violate a right to privacy of any AISC community member. The highest level of security controls should be applied to Confidential/Protected data.

Non-confidential Data

Data should be classified as Non-confidential when the unauthorized disclosure, alteration or destruction of that data would result in little or no risk to AISC.

Community Acknowledgement

Members of the AISC Community will:

© Acknowledge their responsibility to respect the confidentiality of student, parent and staff records and to act in a professional manner in the handling of AISC data such as, but not limited to, photos, videos, official school records, formative and summative assessments, anecdotal notes.

© Ensure that data on individual students is not created, collected, stored, maintained, or disseminated in violation of any AISC policies or practices. If unsure of the policies and practices, contact the sectional Principals.

© Ensure any notes written about a student, parent, faculty, or staff or conversations about a student, parent, faculty, or staff will hold a professional tone and be respectful to all.

© Not share AISC confidential data with any third party, including other schools. When students transfer to other schools, all data will be transferred through the sectional principal and the responsible administrative personnel who will comply with AISC student data sharing policy.

© Ensure student, parent and staff data will only be accessed for students, parents or staff for whom there is a legitimate purpose and will be used for the sole purpose of improving student achievement and advancing the Mission.

© Understand that student-specific and AISC institutional data (e.g. MAP data, literacy assessment results, or attendance records) are to be transmitted only between AISC approved systems and people unless permission is granted by a member of the Senior Leadership Team.

© Ensure email communication about students or staff should not have their name in the subject line — initials or a code are acceptable.

© Understand that it is inappropriate for a student to have access to another student or parent’s confidential data and will not share any student or parent’s information from any source with another student or parent.

© Will not store AISC Institutional data on any personal computer and/or external devices that are not password protected and AISC approved. (External devices include but are not limited to USB/thumb drives and external hard drives.)

© Will not leave student or parent data in any form accessible or unattended, including information on a screen, display, or paper. All data will be kept securely.

© Will tag AISC’s appropriate social media platform in any post made with regards to the learning classrooms.

© View the Communications Office No-Social Media list and ensure that images of students on this list will not be used in any public posting or school-related posting.

© Ensure that if photos/videos are to be posted on public social media, then one will not:

© Indicate names / student identities

© Include the building entries/exits or facade of the school building

© Geotag photos/videos

© Remove the photos/videos from personal devices within 24 hours.
