Comunidad Valenciana, the only region in EUROPE that has designed Open Source tools to protect their students’ privacy.

Article 13.3.1. RESOLUTION of June 28, 2018. PROHIBITED to transmit or host information of the Generalitat Valenciana in external information systems, such as the cloud, except with the express authorization of the Conselleria, and prior risk analysis. Publication of student data in Social Networks: Unambiguous consent of the people involved. Informe about: Data to be published In which social networks Purpose Who has access the data How to exercise the rights of access, rectification, cancellation and opposition The Conselleria of Education, Culture and Sports makes available to schools: ITACA-Web Family 2.0. Platform for contact with family managers. Teaching Module 2.0. (OPEN SOURCE OWNED PLATFORMS OF THE CONSELLERÍA). Article 13.3.a) Resolution July 5: "The use of social networks that include any type of advertising or that can be used for a different purpose of communication is expressly unauthorized." The use of Telegram is allowed as a channel for communication with parents, BUT NO PERSONAL DATA CAN BE INCLUDED. In addition, they have an enormous awareness of the danger of using applications in the educational field, expressing this concern, in the same article 13 the Resolution of July 5: "...The apps that contain more personal data of the students are teacher's notebooks, which maintain their progress and their qualifications. Therefore, any application that include the identification of the student can lead to the elaboration of profiles according to the functionalities and the typology of the data collected. With browsing habits, together with data of other users with whom you contact and their educational behavior, you can create user profiles that can be treated without the user's consent, under the excuse of improving the operation of the service." And they add something really revealing in a Public Administration: the claim that the devices given by tech giants SPY THEIR STUDENTS: "...It should be borne in mind that non-assisted installation applications on smartphones access to a large amount of personal data stored in the device itself, such as the terminal identification number, contact book, images or videos. In addition, these applications can access the device's sensors, and obtain geographic location, capture photos, video or sound through them. For all these reasons, platforms and applications (known as ‘apps'), other than those provided, or authorized, by the Conselleria responsible for education, are forbidden, which have the purpose of: a) Both communication with families and with students. b) The follow-up of the students through notebooks of progress notes and their qualification." The main goal of public administration is THE COMMON GOOD, and protect citizens, and even more, children and minors. The Comunidad Valenciana sets an example for Spain and Europe. In Spain, Secretary of State Carme Artigas in an interview in one of the main newspapers in Spain, El País, proposes to lead in Europe the debate of technological humanism. It is nothing other than acquiring the ethical mentality of the GVA, ahead of its time.

Did you know that the Comunidad Valenciana is the ONLY EUROPEAN REGION that protects their student’s privacy in public schools through OpenSource tools and platforms? But, why should we be worried about student’s privacy? Every word your child writes, every video he watches, or music he listens to, how he writes with the keyboard, where he […]
