We are currently in the process of refining our policies and processes for third party app integrations with Canvas to ensure we are following existing University policies and relevant laws including accessibility, data security, and the sharing of sensitive student information with external vendors.

If you are planning to use third-party apps that aren’t currently available through Canvas, please note the following:

  • Integrating a new app may require additional vetting which can take several weeks to months depending on the level of integration.Technical support of a third party app is not provided by the University.
  • See PPM 4-16 (C-2) for more information about requiring students to pay for third party apps.
  • See PPM 10-1 for more information about protecting sensitive student data and privacy.

Most third-party apps can be used outside of Canvas as standalone platforms so long as they adhere to university data and privacy standards.

For questions about university data and privacy standards, please contact the ISO and/or Legal Counsel. For more information about the vetting process or third-party apps in Canvas, please contact us at LMSadmin@weber.edu
