Academic Innovations will not use any pupil record or information in a pupil record for any purpose other than those required for secure administration of district-, school-, faculty-, or student-level My10yearPlan.com® accounts.
My10yearPlan.com® stores personally-identifiable information related to the creation of student accounts. Such information may include name, date of birth, e-mail address, etc.
Any other personally-identifiable information the pupil chooses to include as part of their pupil-generated content in their 10-year Plan is done at the discretion of the pupil.

Academic Innovations provides a process by which a pupil's_ parent, legal guardian, or the eligible pupil can review the personally-identifiable information in the pupil's records and correct erroneous information.
The pupil can always review any personally-identifiable information associated with their account and correct or remove information by any of the following means:
A pupil's parent or legal guardian can review the personally-identifiable information in the pupil's records by making a request in writing to their school district (owner) for access to his/her subject pupil's My10yearPlan.com® account. Subject to district verification of identity, approval of disclosure, and redaction of any personally-identifiable information of a pupil other than the pupil of the parent or adult pupil who is making the request, the district will direct Academic Innovations to provide access to any/all requested pupil records within ten (10) business days or as otherwise required by law, by issuing the parent or legal guardian a temporary username and password to log on to My10yearPlan.com® to review the requested pupil records. This time frame may be extended by written consent of the parent or legal guardian.
A parent or legal guardian may correct any erroneous information identified upon review of pupil records in My10yearPlan.com® by making a written request to the LEA Account administrator of the student account. Subject to district's verification of identity and approval of such a request to correct erroneous information, the school district will notify Academic Innovations of the approved request. Academic Innovations will correct the erroneous information as directed by the district.

These safeguards help to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and assure the appropriate use of data. Academic Innovations implements physical and additional technical safeguards to secure all data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and use.
The procedures for notifying the affected parent, legal guardian, or eligible pupil in the event of an unauthorized disclosure of the pupil's records are as follows:
Pupil records will be maintained on the My10yearPlan.com® servers until the student graduates from the high school or post-high school educational program as a whole. This ensures continuity in this program as the student progresses from grade to grade.
Academic Innovations may maintain pupil_generated content if the eligible pupil chooses to retain their My10yearPlan.com® account by transferring pupil-generated content to a personal account.
LEA Account data will be marked for permanent destruction at the end of any written agreement between Academic Innovations and the school/district or when no longer needed to conduct any approved and agreed upon studies.
In the absence of any written agreement with Academic Innovations, LEA Accounts will be marked for permanent destruction when the annual data maintenance fee due on the account has lapsed and is at least 90 days past due. In the event that an account lapses, student access may still be deemed active until the graduation date of the last group of students entered into the system so that students can maintain their 10-year Plan.
The LEA Account administrator of a lapsed account may request the destruction of data prior to the timeline described above. All such requests for the destruction of data related to lapsed accounts must be made in writing. Academic Innovations will post a notification within the My10yearPlan.com® system for all student-level accounts associated with the requesting LEA Account that account data, including pupil-generated content, is marked for deletion. Pupils will have a 90-day grace period during which they can retrieve their plan or choose to retain their account by transferring pupil-generated content to a personal account. After the 90-day grace period, all student-level account records that remain associated with the requesting LEA Account will be permanently removed from the system and all copies will be deleted from the servers.
Academic Innovations agrees to assist school districts in_ maintaining the privacy of pupil records as may be required by State and Federal law, including but not limited to the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA), the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C.
