State Consumer Privacy Laws Supplemental Privacy Notice

This supplemental privacy notice gives residents of certain states additional information required by their applicable consumer privacy laws, a current list of which is available on our Privacy Center. These provisions, together with the statements in the College Board privacy notices, explain our practices for processing  residents’ personal data to the extent their state’s consumer privacy law applies. If there are material changes to the Privacy Statement or its State Consumer Privacy Laws Supplemental Privacy Notice, we will contact those as required by their state laws using their College Board account email address.

Sensitive Data: College Board may collect and process certain information defined as sensitive under applicable states laws. This may include your race and ethnicity to provide and personalize our programs and services and conduct research consistent with our mission, mental or physical health condition or diagnosis to process your request for testing accommodations, citizenship to process your CSS Profile application, and data about individuals under age 13 to provide programs requested by them.  Further specificity on processing purposes for sensitive data will be provided to you through informed, express consent for any such processing as required by law.  You may have the right to opt-out of the processing of sensitive data as part of our consumer programs and services, which you may do through our Consent Management Preferences Center at my.collegeboard.org/profile/privacy.

Your Rights: College Board respects your right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personally identifiable information and to portability of it as required by law. Depending on where you live, this means:

• You have a right to know if College Board maintains your personally identifiable information. If we do, you have the right to access it and request that we provide you a copy of your information (subject to the rights of others) in a portable, and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows you to transmit it to another entity.
• If your information is inaccurate, you have the right to ask us to update it.
• You may ask us to delete your personally identifiable information.
• You may ask us to identify third parties or categories of third parties to whom data may have been provided.

To exercise these rights, please complete the Your Privacy Choices webform, email us at [email protected], or write to us at the U.S. address provided in this Privacy Statement and our Customer Service team will assist you. You may also go to my.collegeboard.org/profile to access and correct certain personal data. Our ability to delete personal information will be limited when we’re required to retain records, as in connection with score reports and test security processes.

While not the “sale” of data as defined under otherwise applicable state consumer privacy laws, College Board also respects your right to opt out of Student Search Service (Search). You can opt out of Search at any time by submitting the Your Privacy Choices webform, going to my.collegeboard.org/profile/privacy, contacting us at 866-825-8051, or emailing us at [email protected].

You may authorize someone to act on your behalf to exercise these rights, using the same methods described above. We may need to verify your identity, and any authorized agent authorized by you to act on your behalf, before we can process your request. College Board’s process to authenticate identity includes name, date of birth, and security phrase or security questions, as well as further validation processes, if necessary, including use of the phone number associated with the account. 
If College Board does not take the action you requested when exercising these rights, you may appeal such inaction within a reasonable period after we have notified you of our denial of your request. To submit your appeal, please complete the Your Privacy Choices webform, email us at [email protected], or write to us at the U.S. address provided in this Privacy Statement.
