RECORDED PROGRAMS
We may choose to record activities such as panel discussions, webinars, workshops and other related programs. This might consist of: (1) pre-recorded content (created by instructors or guest speakers) that can be viewed at any time; (2) pre-recorded learning content (created by project participants) including oral presentations, group discussions, or testimonials; and (3) recordings that occur while participants take part in live-streamed activities.
With the exemption of pre-recorded learning content created by instructors or presenters, the above activities may put participants in a position of having their information recorded in a number of ways, either through their direct participation (e.g. video, audio, chat) or through indirect means (i.e. online identifier, such as name or telephone number.) These conditions raise privacy concerns that should be taken into account. Before engaging in any such activity, we have considered the following:
NOTICE FOR RECORDING:
Notice of recording will be prominently displayed on all program registration forms. Additionally, a notice of recording will also be given at the beginning of every activity that is expected to be recorded.
ALTERNATIVES
Participants who do not wish to be recorded, those in significantly different time zones, those who do not have the technological means to participate, or those who would be disadvantaged in any way by video/audio recording, will be offered an alternative method of participation.
STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Recordings will not be stored long term on presenters or instructors personal devices, even if the device is encrypted or password protected. Overtime, recordings that are stored on personal devices may be forgotten which then can pose a risk for inadvertent access or disclosure of personal information.
Program recordings will be kept in accordance with Broad Reach records classification and retention schedules, then securely disposed of when they are no longer needed.
LIMITATION AND RISK
Recording is not without limitation and risk which may include: (1) limitation to ensuring privacy security of information despite reasonable efforts; (2) unauthorized copying and disclosure, disclosure as required by law; and (3) introduction of malware into computer system, which could potentially damage or disrupt computer, networks and security settings. We are not responsible for connectivity/ technical difficulties or loss of data that is associated with the student’s hardware, software or internet connection.
