I. Purpose

The purpose of the Student Account Access By Non-Owner policy is to clearly define the circumstances where someone other than the owner of an account would be provided access to University resources of a °®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ student.

II. Description

Data Ownership

Data that resides on University resources or resources for which °®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ contracts for student access belongs to °®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ. °®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ does however value the security and privacy of these data.

°®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ staff or faculty will not be granted access to ‘student data’ including network logs of individual activity, except with the approval of the Provost. The most likely reason for granting this type of access is to investigate security breaches.

°®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ will comply with all legal subpoenas. In addition, °®¶¹´«Ã½ÊÓÆµ will act to preserve data in the absence of a subpoena when notified of anticipated legal action.
