Guiding Principles
These principles have been established to guide decisions about the use of the uTexas Enterprise Directory, as well as assessment criteria for proposed additions to the data contained in the directory.
- TED contains confidential information and is not equivalent to the public "white pages" directory (located at http://directory.utexas.edu/).
- Authorization to access to confidential or restricted information contained in TED is controlled by the managers of the systems from which that information is derived.
- TED is a repository of information consolidated for the internal use of university departments. It is not the system of record for any student or employee information and from time to time may not reflect the current, official status of a student or employee.
- TED is a critical university resource and will be supported and maintained by ITS to maximize reliability and availability.
- TED is a read-only repository. No updates are permitted.
- Social Security numbers (and identifiers based on SSNs) are not stored in TED.
