Office 365 and our Microsoft Outlook email services are covered by FERPA compliant terms and conditions that are different than their commercial agreements. Microsoft agrees to be designated as a 'school official' with 'legitimate educational interests' in customer data as defined under FERPA.

Office 365 is also HIPAA compliant.
