Purpose

This policy provides an overview of how Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ University, in some instances, may retrieve personal and non-University files, data and/or information stored electronically on Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ computers, devices or systems for individuals no longer employed by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.

Scope

This policy applies to the retrieval of personal files, data or information of former employees stored on Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ devices or systems.

Policy

As a general matter, all workstations, computers and other electronic devices provided by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ to employees are Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ property and should be used solely for fulfilling job duties and responsibilities. As such, personal documents, pictures, and other non-work-related data or files should not be saved to Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ systems, computers or devices. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is not responsible for any personal data, information or files stored or saved on Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ systems or devices.

In the event a Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ employee leaves employment with Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ, voluntarily or involuntarily, and has personal data, files or information stored on University systems or devices, the employee should submit a request to Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµâ€™s Human Resources Departments for Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ to attempt to retrieve such personal information. Requests should be made as soon as possible and should include as much detail as possible. The University will review such requests and evaluate the scope and scale of work involved to attempt to retrieve such files and inform the individual if Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is able to accommodate such requests. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is under no obligation to retrieve personal data and reserves the right at its discretion to deny requests for the same.
