A 1960 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Prohibits cloud computing service providers from disclosing data collected from public, private, or charter schools.

This bill prohibits cloud computing service providers working with New Jersey public, private, and charter schools from disclosing student data collected through their services. It requires providers to certify in writing that they will only share data with school students, teachers, or staff, and only to deliver the service or maintain system security. Violations carry civil penalties of up to $5,000 for first offenses and $10,000 for repeat offenses, enforced through the Superior Court. The law directly affects cloud service companies contracted by schools, aiming to restrict unauthorized sharing of student information.
