Keeping your data safe - GDPR and Data Protection
We take data very seriously at Skoolmis by ensuring your data is secure and our systems are regulatory compliant
Secure login for all users
Our account access tools offer a range of security features, including password rules, enforced regular password changes, and two-factor authentication. Skoolmis also automatically logs out after a period of inactivity and does not allow multi-device/session logins (where enabled).
Role based access control (RBAC)
Users can only view data in line with their relevant role or account privilages. Role-based access control (RBAC) allows schools to manage each staff member's permissions.
Retrieve data to comply with Subject Access Requests
We make it easy to export a complete record of all data stored in Skoolmis about a student or staff member directly from their profile page.
Data-centric tools to help keep your system updated
Skoolmis will automatically flag records that are missing key or statutory information and potential duplicates. We also inform you when your data retention limits have expired on previous records.
Dedicated access security logs
Skoolmis logs all user access attempts as well access to sensitive records and information, providing with you granular control over you data.
GDPR and data-protection warnings
Skoolmis provides you with security warnings when dealing with sensitive and GDPR relevant data, including access to model policies and 'best practices'.
