01

Student Data Protection

The foundation of how PathCheck handles student information.

HTTPS / TLS encryption
All traffic between students, staff, and PathCheck is encrypted in transit.
Encrypted database storage
Student records are stored in an encrypted, managed Postgres database.
Tenant-isolated records
Each institution's data is scoped and isolated at the database layer.
Role-based access
Directors, coordinators, reviewers, and viewers see only what their role permits.
Audit logging
Key actions are recorded with actor, timestamp, and context.

02

FERPA-Aligned Architecture
PathCheck is designed to help institutions protect student education records through role-based access, tenant isolation, audit logging, and controlled data access.

03

Tenant Isolation
Each institution's data is separated using tenant-scoped database controls and row-level security. Users only access records associated with their institution and assigned role.

04

Access Controls
College admins can manage users, assign roles, and control access for directors, coordinators, reviewers, and viewers.

05

Audit Trail
PathCheck records key operational events, including application review activity, eligibility changes, staff notes, and administrative actions.

06

Data Ownership
Institutions retain ownership of their data. PathCheck acts as a service provider supporting institutional student support workflows.
