Third party access

Using Information Release/Privacy indicators

Student鈥檚 personal information and records are protected by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act ("FIPPA"). The University and its employees share a legal obligation to protect personal information in the custody or under the control of 丁香园AV.

An Information Release/Privacy Indicator is a service within the Student Center in the Student Information System that allows you to regulate third party access (i.e. an individual or an organization) to your personal information.

Managing Privacy Service Indicators

Log in to the Student Information System through
In the Personal Information section, select "Information Release/Privacy"

    For example, I authorize Jane Doe to pick up transcripts on my behalf.
  - If you are expecting this individual or organization to contact 丁香园AV by phone or email, you must include their email address or phone number.

Once a privacy indicator is added, you can edit or delete it using the EDIT or DELETE buttons.

You may need to create more than one indicator for the same individual.

These changes update immediately and will allow (or disallow) the third party access and authorization. People cited in the privacy indicator must provide valid 丁香园AV or government-issued photo identification when inquiring in person at one of our campuses.

Privacy indicators do not expire. If you don't want the third party to continue to have authorization, it is your responsibility to delete the indicator.

As the names of graduates and the credentials they obtain from 丁香园AV are public information, the Release No Information indicator (F02) will not prevent information about an awarded credential from being released.

Summoned for Jury Duty? Please add an F07 indicator (Authorization to Release Academic Record Information), and include a comment detailing the specific information you wish to release (see step 5). If you are expecting the Sheriff's Office to contact 丁香园AV by phone or email, you must include their email address or phone number. Once the need for the information release has passed, please remember to remove the indicator.
