In today’s digital world, young people navigate technology from the moment they can tap a screen, and yet the systems designed to protect their data are still evolving. This webinar takes a deep dive into the unique privacy challenges facing kids, teens, parents, and educators as technology becomes woven into learning, communication, and self-expression.
We’ll explore:
The rising push for age verification and what it means for both privacy and First Amendment rights.
The data practices of K–12 educational technology tools, and how well current protections actually work in classrooms.
Major policy proposals, including the Children’s Online Safety Act (COSA), and what these legislative shifts could mean for families, schools, and platforms.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the risks, rights, and responsibilities shaping the digital lives of young people, and what’s needed to create a safer, more privacy-respecting future for all students.
