How IDP90 handles educational records

Applies to IDP90 High School and Collegiate Program contexts. Youth Club and Independent Coach orgs do not operate under FERPA.

Our role

When IDP90 is used inside a school or college team, the school is the controller of the educational records the platform helps produce — assessments, goals, session notes, and progression data. We act as a school official with a legitimate educational interest, under the control of the school, consistent with 34 CFR § 99.31(a)(1).

What that means

  • We use player and student data only for the purposes the school authorized (development tracking, coach-to-player feedback, program reporting).
  • We don't redisclose educational records to anyone outside the school without its written direction, except as required by law.
  • Access is controlled via role (coach, program director, platform owner) and is scoped to the program.

Directory information

Programs can designate name, class year, team, and position as directory information. A student or parent can opt out of directory disclosures through the school's standard FERPA opt-out process; we will honor that opt-out once the school marks it in IDP90.

Parental / student rights

For minors, parents have the right to inspect and review records. Once a student turns 18 or enters a postsecondary program, those rights transfer to the student. IDP90 surfaces assessments, goals, and session notes to the student/parent accounts so inspection is immediate.
