Confidential Data
王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光 faculty, staff, and student employees have varying access to electronic information that is sensitive and confidential. 王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光 considers the protection of such information and its electronic infrastructure from unauthorized use to be a key responsibility of all faculty, staff, and student employees. Failure to act in accordance with College guidelines may result in disciplinary and/or legal action.
Confidential information must be stewarded in an ethical, professional, and legal manner at all times. All institutional electronic data, regardless of how they are stored, remain the property of the College and are governed by this policy.
By law, certain institutional data may only be released with proper authorization, in compliance with applicable federal and state laws concerning storage, retention, use, release, and destruction of data. Users are encouraged to seek guidance from an appropriate supervisor, senior officer, or the chief information officer if it is unclear whether or not specific information is confidential.
Confidential data shall be used only as required in the performance of College duties, and may not be inspected, copied, altered, deleted, shared, granted access to, or used in any other manner, except as required in the performance of those job duties.
Reed community members are responsible for the security, privacy, and control of data in their care, access privileges entrusted to them, and their username/password. If there is reason to believe that the user's username/password is known by or has been used by another person, the user must immediately notify an appropriate supervisor, senior officer, or the chief information officer. Reed community members must take every reasonable precaution to prevent unauthorized access to confidential data. Such data shall not be presented or shared inside or outside the College without prior approval from the appropriate supervisor or senior officer of the College. Confidential data should never be left on any device to which access is not controlled.
When using the institution's electronic information systems, care must be exercised to protect data from unauthorized use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Users must understand the definition of confidential information in the context of their job responsibilities and take steps to ensure that co-workers, staff, and student employees understand existing statutes and policies (such as FERPA, HIPAA, Donor Bill of Rights, Digital Millennium Copyright Act, GLBA, GDPR, etc., and College departmental guidelines that may supplement this agreement). Before granting access to confidential information, users should be satisfied that a "need to know" is clearly demonstrated. Users should seek guidance from an appropriate supervisor, senior officer, or the chief information officer when the appropriate use of, or the granting of access to, such information is unclear.
It is a violation of College policy, and may be a crime, for individuals to attempt to gain access to College electronic data that they do not need in the performance of their job or to which they are not authorized to have access.
Use of Personal Devices or Services
When handling restricted or highly sensitive college data, college employees are required to use ONLY Reed-provided technology resources. Such resources include Reed-owned equipment as well as Reed-managed online services and cloud services. Examples of restricted or highly sensitive college data, along with proper handling instructions, may be found in Reed’s data classification and handling guidelines.
If you have questions or concerns regarding the appropriate way to handle specific data, please contact the Chief Information Officer (cio@reed.edu) for guidance.
Use of Cloud Services
Confidential or otherwise sensitive College information must not be stored, shared, or otherwise processed by a cloud computing service unless the service enters into a legally binding agreement with Reed, approved by the chief information officer, to protect and manage the data according to standards and procedures acceptable to the College.
Information Technology (IT) shall review requests for access to central data systems and serve as the initial point of resolution in instances where requests for such access conflict with this statement.
Appropriate College procedures shall be followed in reporting any breach of security or compromise of safeguards.
Illegal Copying of Software and Other Copyrighted Materials
Respect for intellectual labor and creativity is vital to academic discourse and enterprise. This principle applies to works of authors, artists, and publishers in all media including text, music, images, software and other domains. It encompasses respect for the right to acknowledgment and the right to determine the form, manner, and terms of publication and distribution of one's work. Because electronic information is volatile and easily reproduced, respect for the work and personal expression of others is especially critical.
Copyright infringement and unauthorized access to digital materials may be grounds for legal action. Use of illegally copied software or other materials undermines Reed's ability to negotiate favorable software agreements and may result in legal action against the user as well as the College.
Reed prohibits the illegal use of copyrighted materials. Under the terms of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), the College is committed to respond to lawful requests for information. Reed will not protect or defend a user against criminal investigations or lawsuits resulting from intentional copyright infringement. (For further information, see Reed’s Copyright Policy and the Reed Library .)
Fees
In general, the College does not charge students, faculty, or staff a fee for the use of computing or network resources. However, fees are charged in specific instances including:
-
Printing: There is a per-page charge to students for printing to networked printers in the IRCs, Library, residence halls, and elsewhere. Students are billed through the Business Office. Information about current rates and charges can be obtained from Computer User Services or found on the web at:
/it/help/print/ -
Stolen or damaged computers: Under certain circumstances, faculty and staff may be charged a fee in the event that College-provided computing equipment in their care is lost, stolen, or damaged beyond repair. A policy describing the details of potential employee liability are provided on the web at: /it/policies/theft_loss.html
Privacy, Storage and Transmission of Electronic Materials
The College respects each individual's right to privacy and takes steps to prevent unauthorized access to electronic materials stored or transmitted via College computing or network equipment. However, the College reserves the right to examine such materials at its sole discretion in certain cases; for example, when there is a potential violation of a law or of College policy.
Users should be aware that Reed's learning management system, Moodle, maintains logs of user activities. Faculty members and other Moodle site administrators have access to Moodle logs for their sites.
The College may use external service providers to store, transmit, or otherwise process user data. By endorsing this agreement, users agree that: (a) their data can be processed by external providers used by the College; and (b) they will abide by the terms of use and other policies of such providers insofar as those policies apply to Reed. A list of such providers is available from Information Technology.
Computer User Services is NOT responsible for personal files stored on hard drives in student Information Resource Centers (IRCs). Users are responsible for saving personal files to their own disk(s). IRC hard disks are erased on a regular basis and user-created files are deleted. Centralized disk storage is available to all students, faculty, and staff and may be requested by contacting Computer User Services.
The College uses email to communicate with members of the college community. Students, faculty, and staff are expected to check their email regularly.
Email is not a secure medium of communication. Users are reminded that the storage and transmission of electronic materials, including email, can be disrupted by hardware and software failure as well as by hacking. Users are cautioned about storing or transmitting material that is sensitive or confidential. It is the user's responsibility to back up their materials except for instances where the College specifically provides backup services.
Mass Email
Mass emails are messages sent to large segments of the Reed Community, such as the entire faculty, staff, student body (or student class year), a curricular division, or a group of organizations. While such messages may seem like a good way to spread information to a wide audience, many recipients perceive them as spam or may even find them offensive. In order to avoid this problem, faculty, staff, students, or other members of the Reed community who wish to send a mass email need to follow these steps:
- first, determine the desired audience for your message (refer to the Reed Mass Email Lists described above);
- then, obtain approval to send an email to the desired email distribution list by following the Mass Email Guidelines
- then, email Public Affairs at mass-emails@reed.edu, indicating who has approved the message.
When Public Affairs confirms that you have received authorization to send your message they will provide guidance on technical details for sending the message.
Sending mass emails to the Reed community without authorization, by circumventing college distribution email lists or other means, is a violation of the Computer User Agreement and is subject to the penalties described in the Failure to Comply section below.
Requests for Access to Email and other Files by Third Parties
From time to time, IT may receive internal or external requests for access to employee's or student's electronic mail and other files, including system, network, and user audit logs.
At no time shall IT staff members examine the contents of email or other user files in response to an access request by a third party unless so directed by the chief information officer, a senior officer of the college, or college legal counsel. In cases where a request is made as part of an eDiscovery process, IT response shall be governed by 王钟瑶婚礼视频曝光 eDiscovery Guidelines.
Requests that do not fall under eDiscovery shall comply with the following guidelines:
-
Requests for electronic materials must be made to the chief information officer and must specify the timeframe, the type(s) of electronic materials to be searched (emails, documents, etc.), well-defined search criteria (sender and/or recipient, header keywords, etc.) and the reason for the request;
-
When a third party access request is made, the chief information officer shall consult with an appropriate senior officer and/or legal counsel to obtain written authorization prior to approving access;
-
If access is approved, a IT staff member designated by the chief information officer shall contact the requester(s) to determine the optimal format for delivering the electronic materials and notify the chief information officer when the materials have been delivered.
Failure to Comply
The College will suspend or revoke the computing privileges of anyone who violates this agreement or fails to pay a required fee. The terms and conditions of usage are subject to change as computing resources and user demands vary. This policy is reviewed on a regular basis by the Computing Policy Committee. The Reed community will be notified if the agreement is changed. The current version will be available on the IT website at:
/it/policies/user_agreement.html
Ongoing use of Reed's computing facilities and services implies a user's acceptance of the most current version of this agreement. Users who decline to accept the current version will be prohibited from using Reed's computing facilities and services.
If a computer user fails to comply with these terms and conditions, it will follow the "Procedures for Handling Violations of the User Agreement," located at:
/it/policies/violations_procedures.html
Other policies related to the use of Reed's computing resources may be found at:
