Our information technology management systems and networks routinely carry, enable processing of, and store for varying periods, much of our core business and support services.
Information technology records encompass both internal electronic transactions and external transactions, including telephone, email and internet activity. The great bulk of the personal information records within the our network environment are described in the personal information register. In addition, there are some personal information records specifically tailored to IT systems administration, such as authentication and identification card systems, and usage tracking systems.
These records are not routinely disclosed outside the university, though in limited circumstances, information about staff will be supplied to outside organisations such as the Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre to facilitate access by those staff to external IT systems if required for business processes.
The records are generally accessible only to IT support staff.
