ConsentSignals for Schools

What is your school website collecting from your pupils?

School websites are visited by pupils, parents, and guardians every day. Third-party trackers, analytics tools, and embedded videos often collect data without anyone realising. A ConsentSignals scan tells you exactly what's happening — in plain language you can share with governors.

April 2026 · US pupils on school sites
COPPA applies when US pupils use your digital services

Even Ireland/EU schools may use EdTech vendors or embed US-hosted tools (YouTube, Google Analytics, classroom apps). The April 2026 COPPA amendments tighten third-party data sharing and retention. Scan now to see pre-consent trackers and policy gaps before board meetings.

Does Reject actually stop trackers? We run a 8-session consent matrix — independent of your CMP.

For agencies and advisors: retain written client authorisation. Anonymous scans are limited to properties you operate; major third-party platforms require sign-in.

Scan only URLs you own or have written permission to test.
