Security in OITIncidental Use of Information Resources

  • UTSA provides information technology resources to faculty, students and staff with which to conduct their University-related duties only. However, incidental personal use is permitted but is restricted to UTSA employees and does not extend to family members or other acquaintances. Any incidental personal use must not interfere with normal performance of duties and must not result in any direct costs to UTSA.
  • Storage of any non-work-related e-mail messages, voice messages, files and documents within the UTSA e-mail system must be negligible (less than 5% of a user's allocated mailbox space).
  • Non-work-related files may not be stored on network file servers.
  • As a public institution, UTSA is subject to the Texas Public Information Act, commonly referred to as the Open Records Act. Although there are some exceptions, in general all messages, files and documents - including personal messages, files and documents – stored on UTSA information technology equipment are owned in accordance with the Regents' Rules and Regulations, and may be subject to public information requests and may be accessed in accordance with this policy.
