Privacy At Schools

What, where and how you use technology can determine the amount of "privacy" you have. Using a school (or workplace) computer, email or internet connection has an impact on your privacy. Communications you have over school (or workplace accounts) are considered to be the property of the school (or workplace). In the United States, there are laws that seek to protect medical, financial, educational and criminal records, but there is currently no one law defining or protecting online privacy. Some online behavior, such as cyber bullying is covered by state laws that address bullying. 

The most important thing you can do is, know your school (or workplace) Acceptable Use Policy (AUP).
