 Our Privacy Pledge Concerning

Safeguarding of Student Privacy

Studio 5 School Portraits recognizes it shared
responsibility for ensuring student data privacy by supplying clearer privacy
policies and educating customers and clients about security guidelines and
regulations. As part of our mission, Studio 5 School Portraits photographs
students and tags those student images to only student data provided by the
school and/or parent.

 

What Information Is Collected And How Is It Used?
We collect, use, share and retain student images and personal information only
for purposes for which we are authorized by the educational institution,
county, teacher or the parent/student.

The data needed for picture day depends upon the products
and services requested by the school. We collect basic roster and classroom
information in advance of picture day to match images with the names. in some
cases, school data is incorporated into school archival products. For example, Studio
5 School Portraits sometimes produces student and faculty ID cards which are
readable by cafeteria and library barcode scanners. In this case, student and
faculty ID numbers are required. Schools ultimately decide what information is
used in producing archival products.  In
order to create consistent and professional portraits, Studio 5 School
Portraits uses one-pass facial recognition technology to consistently size the
student and faculty images for the yearbook and archival products. No data,
other than the re-sized image, is retained.

request by authorized county agencies, under the authority of county-wide

the educational institution in meeting it’s requirements or when the

example, Studio 5 School Portraits will assist schools in editing student data
to correct inaccuracies and will also correct inaccuracies as they are
discovered upon data input.
