Last Updated: December 18, 2025
Effective Date: December 18, 2025

Dynamic Indicators for Assessment of Language and Culture, LLC ("DIALC," "we," "us," or "our") is deeply committed to protecting the privacy of student educational records in accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 ("FERPA"), 20 U.S.C. § 1232g, and its implementing regulations at 34 CFR Part 99. As an educational assessment service provider working with K-12 schools, higher education institutions, and educational service centers, we recognize the critical importance of safeguarding student data and maintaining the trust placed in us by educational institutions, students, and their families.

This FERPA Compliance Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of student educational records and personally identifiable information from education records ("PII"). This policy applies to all DIALC employees, contractors, consultants, and any third parties who may have access to student data through our services.

FERPA affords parents and eligible students (those 18 years of age or older or attending postsecondary institutions) specific rights with respect to education records, including:

• The right to inspect and review the student's education records maintained by the school
• The right to request amendment of records believed to be inaccurate or misleading
• The right to provide written consent before the disclosure of personally identifiable information from the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent
• The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by educational agencies or institutions to comply with FERPA requirements

DIALC respects and upholds these rights through our policies, procedures, and technical safeguards.

DIALC typically serves as a "school official" with a "legitimate educational interest" in student data, as defined by FERPA regulations and the policies of our educational institution clients. In this capacity:

• We receive student data only under the direct control and authority of educational institutions
• We access education records only for purposes specified in our contracts with educational institutions
• We do not maintain independent educational records outside the control of the educational institution
• We act as an agent of the educational institution when performing services related to education records
• We are bound by the same FERPA restrictions that apply to the educational institution

When required, we enter into formal Data Privacy Agreements (DPAs) or Data Sharing Agreements (DSAs) with educational institutions that explicitly outline our responsibilities under FERPA and other applicable privacy laws.

DIALC may receive and process the following types of student data through our educational assessment services:

Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from Education Records:

• Student names and identifiers
• Student identification numbers
• Dates of birth
• Grades and assessment scores
• Attendance records
• Special education classifications and accommodations
• Language proficiency indicators
• Cultural background information relevant to assessment
• Educational program participation

De-identified and Aggregate Data:

• Statistical data with all personally identifiable information removed
• Aggregate performance metrics
• Research data in anonymized form
• Program evaluation reports without individual student identifiers

Lawful Basis for Data Collection

DIALC collects student data only:

• With explicit authorization from the educational institution
• For legitimate educational purposes as defined in our service agreements
• When necessary to provide our contracted assessment and evaluation services
• In compliance with FERPA's requirements for school official access

Purpose Limitation

Student data is used strictly for the purposes authorized by the educational institution, including:

• Administering language and cultural competency assessments
• Providing diagnostic reports to educators and administrators

• Research and development of assessment tools (only with de-identified data)

DIALC never uses student data for:

• Creating profiles for non-educational purposes
• Selling or renting student information to third parties

• To other school officials within the educational institution who have legitimate educational interests
• To authorized representatives of state and local educational authorities for audit or evaluation purposes
• In connection with financial aid for which the student has applied or received
• To organizations conducting studies for educational agencies to develop, validate, or administer predictive tests, administer student aid programs, or improve instruction
• To accrediting organizations to carry out their accrediting functions
• To comply with a judicial order or lawfully issued subpoena (with prior notice to the educational institution when feasible)
• In a health or safety emergency when knowledge is necessary to protect the health or safety of students or others

Prohibited Disclosures

DIALC will never disclose student data:

• To third-party advertisers or marketers
• For non-educational research without proper de-identification and institutional approval
• To law enforcement agencies without proper legal process
• To immigration authorities without a valid court order
• To any party not explicitly authorized by the educational institution and FERPA

Third-Party Service Providers

When we engage third-party service providers who may have access to student data (such as cloud storage providers or assessment platform hosts), we:

• Conduct thorough due diligence on their data protection practices
• Require FERPA-compliant data processing agreements
• Limit their access to only what is necessary for their services
• Monitor their compliance with our data protection requirements
• Prohibit them from using student data for their own purposes

DIALC supports educational institutions in fulfilling parental and student rights under FERPA by:

Access to Records

• Raw Assessment Data: Retained for 3 years after the final report is delivered
• De-identified Research Data: May be retained indefinitely for research and development purposes

• Physical Records: Cross-cut shredding or incineration
• Cloud Data: Verification of complete deletion from all systems and backups

Given our specialization in language and cultural assessment, DIALC takes additional precautions with sensitive data related to:

• Immigration Status: We never collect or infer immigration status from assessment data
