B. Subrecipient shall require all of its employees, agents, subcontractors and volunteer staff who may provide services to Subrecipient under this Contract to sign an agreement with Subrecipient before commencing the provision of any such services, to maintain the confidentiality of any and all materials and information with which they may come into contact, or the identities or any identifying characteristics or information with respect to any and all participants referred to Subrecipient by County, except as may be required to provide services under this Contract or to those specified in this Contract as having the capacity to audit Subrecipient, and as to the latter, only during such audit. Subrecipient shall provide reports and any other information required by County in the administration of this Contract, and as otherwise permitted by law. C. The State of California Information Practices Act of 1977 sets forth certain requirements and safeguards regarding records pertaining to individuals, including the rights of access by the subject individual and by third parties. The disclosure of information from student records is governed by the Federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and in part by the State of California Education Code and Subrecipient Policies Applying to the Disclosure of Information and Student Records. It is the purpose of these policies to provide reasonable interpretations of those laws and to protect the student’s right to privacy. The Federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a U.S. federal law that protects the privacy of student records. Generally, this law states schools must have written permission from the student in order to release any information from a student’s education record. The Subrecipient shall be guided by the following principles: (1) the release of any personally identifiable student information to any third parties shall be managed in ways that are in compliance with FERPA and (2) the information in the student’s file should be disclosed to the student upon request. Therefore, Subrecipient shall procure the written consent from students enrolled through the County allowing Subrecipient to disclose to the participants’ employer, County of Orange, State of California, or U.S. Department of Labor student information such as grades, academic disputes and other matters related to a student’s status as a student. Such consent shall be obtained materially in the form, titled Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Authorization to Release Information to a Designated Third Party. D. Subrecipient agrees that any and all subcontracts entered into shall be subject to the confidentiality requirements of this Contract. 33. Contingent Fees The Subrecipient warrants that no person or selling agency has been employed or retained to solicit or secure this Contract upon an agreement or understanding for a commission, percentage, brokerage, or contingent fee, except bona fide employees of the Subrecipient or bona fide established commercial or selling agencies maintained by the Subrecipient for the purpose of securing business. For breach or violation of this warranty, the County shall have the right to terminate this Contract in EXHIBIT 2
