Board authorizes ROC to negotiate data‑privacy agreements on district’s behalf
Summary
Trustees approved a resolution authorizing the RIC1 Risk Operations Center (ROC) to negotiate data-privacy agreements with vendors and third parties for the Batavia City School District to protect confidential student and transportation information.
The board considered and approved a resolution authorizing the RIC1 Risk Operations Center (ROC) to negotiate data‑privacy agreements with vendors and third‑party contractors on behalf of the Batavia City School District. The policy change was presented as a necessary administrative step to ensure vendors handling transportation and other sensitive student information are contractually obligated to protect confidential data.
Superintendent Smith explained the change is designed to avoid unintended disclosure when updating transportation forms and other systems that share student information with third parties. A motion to adopt the resolution was moved and seconded and the board recorded an affirmative voice vote.
The resolution tasks ROC with negotiating appropriate contractual protections; the transcript does not include the full text of any vendor agreements nor details on implementation timelines.
