Florida Statute 1006.1494: The policy explicitly states it uses personal information (email, usage data, inferences) for targeted advertising and discloses unique IDs for this purpose, which directly conflicts with the prohibition on targeted advertising based on covered information. PPRA: The policy explicitly states it uses personal information (email, usage data, inferences) for marketing and advertising purposes, and acknowledges that certain disclosures 'may constitute 'selling',' which directly conflicts with PPRA's prohibition on marketing, selling, or disclosing student personal information for commercial purposes.
