ConsentSignals for EdTech

Your students trust you. Make sure your site does too.

EdTech platforms collect more sensitive data than almost any other sector — from learning patterns to behavioural data of children. COPPA, GDPR Art.8, and the UK AADC all apply. One scan tells you where you stand.

April 2026 deadline
COPPA 2025 amendments take effect in April 2026

The FTC's updated COPPA rule expands actual-knowledge triggers, third-party disclosure requirements, and retention limits. EdTech platforms with child-directed content or US users should audit pre-consent trackers and privacy policies now — before regulators do.

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.
