Privacy Expectations
Taking photos or making audio or video recordings without permission in ANY context in which the person has a reasonable expectation of privacy is prohibited. Such physical areas on campus include, but are not limited to, on-campus housing, private offices, restrooms, changing rooms, labs, classrooms, and conference rooms. In such areas, permission must be granted by all persons being photographed or recorded.
In a situation in which it is not acceptable to take a picture or recording, it is also not acceptable to publish it. Transmission on the Internet constitutes publication. Additionally, remember that all images transmitted are subject to all applicable policies and laws, including copyright, just like any other digital document.
The use of electronic devices to transmit or record images or conversations without explicit permission and acknowledgement of all parties is prohibited.
