Privacy notice
What we collect, and what we never collect
This is a prototype privacy notice. If the platform becomes an official university system, privacy, data protection, security and institutional approval will require formal review.
What a barrier report contains
- The building and the exact spot you describe.
- The barrier category and your description of the problem.
- How much the barrier affects your access.
- The date and time of submission.
What we never collect
- Medical diagnoses or health records. We only ever ask about functional access needs.
- Your location in the background, or any tracking across other websites.
- Any requirement to disclose a disability in order to use the platform.
How reports are handled
- Reports are held for moderation and are not published automatically.
- Reporters are never publicly identified, whether or not they are signed in.
- Anonymous submission stores no link to your account at all. Signed-in submissions store a reference so staff can follow up, and it is never shown publicly.
- Image upload is not enabled yet, because moderation must be in place before any user-submitted image can be displayed.
Accessibility information itself
Accessibility information affects real-world safety and independence, so each record is labelled as verified university data, a community report, or not yet verified, with the date it was last checked. During the prototype every record is demo data and describes no real campus.
