Privacy and Data Protection at Tel Aviv University
Tel Aviv University is committed to protect privacy and provide data protection, including the privacy of its employees, students, whoever enters its gates, and whoever has any other research or administrative connection to it.
This regulation is intended to assert the University's policy regarding the aspects of these matters, by aiming to strike an appropriate balance between privacy interests and other University interests, such as promoting research and academic freedom, security, public order, and efficient management.
While the University, like any organization, is subject to Israeli law, there are unique aspects characterizing an academic institution with the principle goals of producing knowledge, preserving it, and imparting it on behalf of the public for perpetuity.
By virtue of being an entity that considers itself an intellectual and ethical engine, in Israel and worldwide, the University has undertaken to apply rules for protecting privacy beyond what is required by Israeli law, and as specified in this regulation.
