Tulane University Data (University Data) are valuable institutional assets. The use of University Data must be aligned with the administrative, educational, and institutional research missions of the university, regardless of where University Data is used or maintained. The purpose of this policy is to define and provide the framework and rules for how we identify, categorize, store, use, improve, protect and otherwise manage our data.

All University Data, which includes Academic, Clinical, Research, and Administrative Data, is owned by Tulane University (“University”). As such, all members of the University community must appropriately use and safeguard the data, in all formats and all locations. This policy establishes uniform data management standards for University Data and identifies the shared responsibilities for assuring the security of University Data and that University Data efficiently and effectively serve the needs of the University.
