Certification recognizes companies who have gone “above and beyond” in privacy practices
Prodigy Education Earns Coveted Common Sense Privacy Seal
Toronto, April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Prodigy Education (“Prodigy”), creators of the number one game-based learning platform for teachers, has been named a charter recipient of the Common Sense Privacy Seal – a prestigious designation recognizing companies that exceed industry standards for online privacy.
Awarded by Common Sense Media, a trusted resource for millions of parents and educators for more than 15 years, the seal provides further third-party verification of Prodigy’s leadership position in responsible EdTech data practices. The seal is awarded to less than 10 percent of companies who undertake the thorough assessment process by Common Sense Privacy.
“We’re honored to be among the first recipients of this seal, reaffirming our commitment to student, teacher, and parent privacy,” said Ben Johnson, Chief Technology Officer of Prodigy.
“It’s vitally important that anyone who teaches or learns with Prodigy does so with peace of mind. EdTech companies should do everything in their power to be clear, transparent, and responsible when it comes to data privacy. The Common Sense Privacy Seal highlights our commitment to these best practices, demonstrating why Prodigy has earned trust in classrooms and homes worldwide.”
To qualify for the Common Sense Privacy Seal, companies must undergo:
- A comprehensive evaluation including a rigorous 100+ question rubric that assesses privacy practices across products and services.
- A privacy analyst review, involving direct engagement with a Common Sense Privacy expert to ensure that privacy policies and practices are aligned with the highest standards.
- An ongoing commitment, with privacy policies monitored on a quarterly basis and companies pledging to update their privacy policies annually or whenever significant product changes occur.
Daphne Li, CEO of Common Sense Privacy, said: “The Common Sense Privacy Seal is a prestigious designation awarded to companies who uphold the highest standards in protecting their users. When consumers see the Common Sense Privacy Seal, they know they’re engaging with a company that treats privacy as a priority – rather than an afterthought. We congratulate Prodigy for its commitment to privacy and for becoming a charter recipient of this seal.”
