Data Security & Stewardship Policy

Rollins College takes seriously the proper use and protection of personal and institutional data. This policy pertains to all individuals who are involved in Rollins College business, whether they are paid or volunteers. Deans and Department heads are responsible for functioning as data stewards, ensuring that all individuals in the school/department are familiar with their responsibilities under this policy.

Information falls across a continuum of concern regarding its disclosure. While confidential information (e.g. social security number, bank accounts) must be given our closest attention, the College could also be harmed if other personal data are exposed (e.g. salaries, student grades). Therefore, protecting the College’s data is everyone’s responsibility.
