01 / The rule

What Proctoring Fairness requires

Schools, colleges and testing bodies that use remote or AI proctoring, and the vendors that supply it.

01Public institutions: weigh the Fourth Amendment before compelling room scans of students' homes, and offer alternatives (Ogletree's vacated 2022 ruling shows the risk).
02Provide alternative exam methods so results reflect achievement, not a disability-affected skill (34 CFR 104.44(c)).
03Have a person review AI proctoring flags before any academic integrity action, especially where disability may explain behavior.
04Public entities: make online proctoring and exam platforms meet ADA Title II web accessibility rules by the compliance date.
05Get informed written consent and publish retention rules before collecting face or other biometric data where state law requires it.

02 / In this sector

In a clinical AI workflow

AI proctoring uses face detection and eye or motion tracking to flag 'suspicious' behavior, which can misfire on students with disabilities or whose faces the system detects poorly. OCR's now-rescinded 2024 AI resource gave this exact scenario as grounds for an investigation.

Clinical committees and health system AI governance.

Optional evidence · where Planisphere fits

Keep a record anyone can check

When your team meets a duty, Planisphere can seal the event it reports as a receipt.

01 · Your teamRecord the event

A disclosure shown, a review signed, a model change approved: the event your system reports.

02 · PlanisphereSeal it

The event becomes a sealed receipt, dated and attributed to whoever is signed in.

03 · AnyoneCheck it

Paste the receipt into Verify. No account or key.

A record supports your compliance evidence process. It is not a legal finding or a certification. Systems that call Planisphere's gate API can also hold or refuse an action before it runs.
