From that PDF: "No, ProctorU cannot access your files. During the initial phase of the proctoring process, ProctorU, with
permission from the test taker, has the ability to view the screen and move their mouse and keyboard as
if the proctor was sitting next to the test taker. The proctor cannot access anything on the test taker’s
computer without the test taker’s knowledge."
The third party identification is FERPA compliant, even according to that PDF.

I am particularly upset about the third party identity verification company that accesses my personal records, public or otherwise. I'm okay with this when it is required by the IRS or FAFSA, but not Proctor U or Straighterline.
