Ask before you play.
Every video in our directory carries a plain-language brief. A straight read on what is actually in it, so a parent or a teacher knows before pressing play. Free, public, and anonymous. There is no account here, and there never will be.
The five pillars, in four minutes. Start here.
We collect nothing. No account. No cookie. No tracker.
We can’t sell your data because we never take it. That’s the whole point. Bookmark any page and come back as often as you like. The link remembers, we don’t.
Four ways in. Start with your own question.
I'm a teacher
Can I use this app?
Search the vetted directory and read the brief before you put a video in front of a class.
Open the directory →I'm a parent
Is this video okay?
A plain-language summary of what is in a video, and who gets your kid’s data. Free and anonymous.
Open the directory →I run technology or privacy
Where are we exposed?
See how the shadow-app problem plays out, then take it to the Agency for the full picture.
Enter the Agency →I'm on a school board
Are we covered?
Board-ready framing on student-data risk, and where the district stands.
Enter the Agency →Ten tracks. One on-ramp.
The Agent FERPA training tracks. Section trailers are in production. Each tile is ready for its video the day it lands.
DPA 101
Start here. The free on-ramp: what a data privacy agreement is, and why it matters before anyone presses play.
FERPA Fundamentals
The base layer. What FERPA actually covers, what an education record is, and where the lines sit.
Special Education, Dual Enrollment & Vulnerable Populations
The records that carry the most weight and the least room for error.
AI and EdTech Risk
Where student data goes when a "free" tool gets loose in the building.
Vendor and Procurement
The paperwork trail: agreements, exhibits, and the questions to ask before you sign.
Security and NIST
The controls behind the promises. What "secure" is supposed to mean.
People in the Building
The human decisions that make or break a privacy program day to day.
District Communications
Saying the true thing clearly, to parents, boards, and staff.
Laws and Compliance
The wider statute landscape around FERPA, and how the pieces fit.
Seasonal
The privacy moments that arrive on the calendar, every year.
The Human Layer
The through-line: privacy is a set of choices people make, not a checkbox.
The declassified case files
The full episodes screen inside the Agency, where membership lives. Watching one is a click away. It just happens over there, not here.
One dispatch a week. What changed, what to watch.
The briefing sign-up lives on the Agency, where your address is handled properly. We keep abya.tv account-free on purpose, so we send you there rather than collect anything here.
