Safeguard data in our use of AI. Please remember, unless you are using a tool from the GenAI Tools web page, you may only use public data with a generative AI service. Using any UMBC proprietary data is forbidden.
For administrative AI use, UMBC's DoIT guidance says that unless a user is using a tool from the GenAI Tools page, only public data may be used with a generative AI service and use of UMBC proprietary data is forbidden.
Unless this information is considered public material, something you would publish on a website for the Internet to see, you should not use content from UMBC on any GenAI service unless you know that UMBC has verified it is safe to use. Luckily, UMBC has access to several GenAI tools that have been verified as safe to use on UMBC Level 1 & FERPA data, which is data intended to be kept internal to UMBC.
