7542 - ON-SITE ACCESS TO DISTRICT TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES FROM PERSONALLY-OWNED COMMUNICATION DEVICES

For purposes of this policy, "personal communication device" means as defined in Bylaw 0100 - Definitions.

Board members, employees, and students, as well as contractors, vendors, and agents of the District may use their PCD to wirelessly access the District's technology resources (guest or business networks, servers, printers, etc.) while they are on-site at any District facility. Access to the business/guest network shall require adherence to District policy and guidelines.

If the user wants to access the District’s technology resources through a hard-wired connection, the user’s PCD must first be checked by the IT Department to verify it meets the established standards for equipment used to access the network.

The use of PCDs must be consistent with the established standards for appropriate use as defined in Policy 7540.03 – Student Technology Acceptable Use and Safety, and Policy 7540.04 – Staff Technology Acceptable Use and Safety.

Any user who violates the established standards and/or the Board’s Acceptable Use Policy, or who accesses the District’s technology resources server and network without authorization may be prospectively denied access to the District’s technology resources. If the violation is committed by a contractor, vendor, or agent of the District, the contract may be subject to cancellation. Further disciplinary action may be taken if the violation is committed by a student or employee.

The owner of a PCD bears all responsibility and assumes all risk of theft, loss, or damage to, misuse, or unauthorized use of the device while it is on Board property. This provision applies to everyone, regardless of their affiliation or connection to the District.
