Do I really have to use that technology in school?

The GDPR is a law which sets out your data protection rights. From the age of 13, one of your rights is to ‘object’ to digital data processing. If you don’t want an app, social media, or a website to collect data about you, you normally don’t have to agree – and you definitely don’t if it’s for advertising or marketing purposes. This applies to digital technology in school. If you’re worried about any technology use in school, then it’s okay to question that. Your school is likely to have a legitimate interest in collecting data about you (to help your learning progress, for example). But some third-party technologies may pose a clear privacy risk. Ask your teacher if there is an alternative, or if necessary, write to your school with a more formal objection which expresses your concerns.
