Privacy
This document applies to faculty, staff, students, and other personnel associated with the University of Florida. The University of Florida Internet Privacy Policy applies to our Internet visitors.

CLASnet uses a policy of "informed consent" when using your information. You should understand how CLASnet uses the information you provide, and your right to approve the use of that information.

While using CLASnet, you may be required to provide various information (name, email address, departmental affiliation, and other contact information). This information will only be available to CLASnet (a division of the UF CLAS Dean's Office) for daily administrative duties and to communicate with you. The information will not be redistributed to other agencies without notification.

Network traffic
CLASnet does not monitor the contents of traffic crossing the network. However, CLASnet may monitor the volume and type of traffic, in order to provide better service to our departments.

CLASnet reserves the right to remove any machine or user from the CLAS network if we suspect the user/machine negatively affects the security or available network bandwidth of our other machines and/or users.

Electronic Mail
CLASnet does not monitor on a regular basis the contents of incoming or outgoing electronic messages. CLASnet may monitor the volume and type of messages in order to provide better service to our departments. We normally do not examine the contents of any messages stored on the CLASnet servers. However, we may monitor the size of the messages stored, in order to prevent system DoS (Denial of Service) attack and/or recognize a mis-configured client computer.

If a user contacts CLASnet noting a problem with email, we may examine the message headers in order to trace the problem. We will not examine the messages' contents unless explicitly requested by the user or a competent authority.

Disk Storage
CLASnet normally does not monitor the contents of user files stored on the CLASnet servers. CLASnet may monitor the volume and type of files in order to provide better service to our departments, particularly if a department suffers from a dearth of storage space.

In the event of a system intrusion (aka "break-in"), we may be required to examine files that meet the attacker's modus operandi. This includes suspiciously-named files, files created immediately following the intrusion, etc.

CLASnet disk storage may be examined for content upon instruction by a competent administrative authority. Such examination will occur only on suspicion of materials forbidden by the CLAS and/or UF AUP.

File Archival
CLASnet systems will archive files stored on the CLASnet disk(s) as part of our normal operations. These archives are stored off-site, and are available only to CLASnet staff.

Termination of account
In the event that you close your account(s) with CLASnet, all of your personal information and files will be removed from the system. All files stored on the SHARE volume(s) of the server(s) will remain, and their ownership will be transferred to the department contact.

If requested by the departmental contact, CLASnet may transfer explicitly non-personal files from your HOME volume to the SHARE volume(s), assuming you do not object. If you object, it is your responsibility to contact us before the termination of your account.

Legal Uses
You agree to use information contained on the CLASnet site only for legal purposes.

Links to other sites
Parts of CLASnet (web.clas.ufl.edu) may link to other web sites, or to CLASnet personal web sites (web.clas.ufl.edu/users/). CLASnet does not have any involvement or liability for the contents of such sites, and does not necessarily endorse their contents.

Modification of terms
The University of Florida and/or the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences may change the terms of this agreement at its discretion. Major changes to this agreement will be announced to the departmental computer contacts and posted on the CLASnet web site. It is your responsibility to keep informed of any changes to this agreement.
