9ine welcomes Octopus BI to the Certified Vendor Programme

The application of data analytics in schools is endless. The information and intelligence gained from effective data analytics supports improved decision making and actionable insights. But, with more data to interrogate, there are greater risks to data privacy and information security. It’s for this reason 9ine is pleased to welcome Octopus BI, an AI-powered education data analytics platform, to its Certified Vendor Programme. This recognition underscores Octopus BI’s commitment to safeguarding personal data in a fast moving landscape.

The 9ine Certified Vendor Programme acknowledges educational software providers that uphold high standards in data privacy, safeguarding, and cyber security management. 

Octopus BI is one of the very first leading Edtech companies to be certified by 9ine and demonstrates its commitment to:

• Collaborate closely with partner schools, ensuring robust implementation of data safeguarding practices, and strong privacy and security of data.

• Offer a carefully designed platform to empower educators to make critical, data-driven decisions by delivering actionable insights. 
• Managing personal data in compliance with GDPR and other international privacy laws, while proactively mitigating compliance gaps and risks.

9ine’s CEO & Founder, Mark Orchison says "I am thrilled to welcome Octopus BI to our Certified Vendor Programme. We are just beginning to see how AI can improve schools, and we need organisations like Octopus BI to lead the way in setting high standards for privacy and information security. They are committed to taking a professional approach to privacy and cybersecurity, placing these principles at the very centre of their platform's growth and development”

9ine aims to ensure that educational institutions - worldwide - can invest in Edtech tools safely in the knowledge that they meet the highest standards of data privacy and protection compliance.”
