Restricted information will not be sent via email. Restricted information includes
FERPA-protected student education record data, HIPAA protected health information,
protected financial account information, personally identifiable information, Social
Security Numbers, and any information that can be used in identity theft. In order to
comply with legal and regulatory requirements and protect our students’ information,
restricted information must be communicated by a secure GPC-provided system.
GPC’s learning management system, iCollege, is recommended for communicating
grades and other sensitive education records information. The Office of Information
Technology can help determine the best method of sending other restricted
information.
Students must use their GPC email accounts when responding to institutional
requests. This ensures blocked or blacklisted senders will not impede the delivery of
email communication from students.
