1. A school service provider shall
establish and carry out a detailed plan for the security of any data concerning
pupils that is collected or maintained by the school service provider. The plan
must include, without limitation:
(a) Procedures for protecting the security,
privacy, confidentiality and integrity of personally identifiable information
concerning a pupil; and
(b) Appropriate administrative, technological and
physical safeguards to ensure the security of data concerning pupils.
2. A school service provider shall ensure
that any successor entity understands that it is subject to the provisions of NRS 388.281 to 388.296 , inclusive, and agrees to abide by
all privacy and security commitments related to personally identifiable
information concerning a pupil collected and maintained by the school service
provider before allowing a successor entity to access such personally
identifiable information.
3. A school service provider shall provide
notice to a school district, charter school or university school for profoundly
gifted pupils, as applicable, or a private school pursuant to NRS 394.1616 , of any breach of the
security of the system data in violation of the plan and any actions taken or
being taken by the school service provider to address the breach. The notice
must be provided as soon as practicable and without unreasonable delay.
4. A school district, charter school,
university school for profoundly gifted pupils or private school that receives
a notice pursuant to subsection 3 shall provide the notice to each pupil
affected by the breach or, if a pupil is less than 18 years of age, the parent
or legal guardian of the pupil. The notice must be provided as soon as
practicable and without unreasonable delay.
5. As used in this section, breach of the
security of the system data means unauthorized acquisition of computerized
data that materially compromises the security, confidentiality or integrity of
data concerning pupils that is collected or maintained by the school service
provider. The term does not include the good faith acquisition of data
concerning pupils by an employee or agent of the school service provider for a
legitimate purpose of the school service provider, so long as the data is not
used for a purpose unrelated to the school service provider or subject to
further unauthorized disclosure.
