Privacy
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.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: administrative GenAI use limited to public data unless using UMBC GenAI Tools page tools; proprietary data forbidden in other services
Original evidence
Evidence 1Safeguard 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.

Academic Integrity
UMBC's Academic and Instructional AI page says UMBC does not license any AI detection tools at this time and describes reliability concerns with AI-detection tools.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: no institution-licensed AI detection tools at this time; AI detection reliability concerns noted
Original evidence
Evidence 1There are a number of AI detection tools available, some built on older APIs for ChatGPT and therefore they are not accurate just on this factor alone. AI, by its nature, is constantly learning and improving itself and it may never be possible to truly detect whether text is AI-generated. Note: UMBC does not license any AI detection tools at this time.

Privacy
UMBC's DoIT GenAI Tools guidance says UMBC content that is not public should not be used with a GenAI service unless UMBC has verified that the service is safe to use, and says UMBC has several tools verified as safe for Level 1 and FERPA data.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: non-public UMBC content requires UMBC-verified safe GenAI service; several tools verified for Level 1 and FERPA data
Original evidence
Evidence 1Unless 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.

Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: teaching guidance recommends clear GenAI expectations and prompt/process documentation where AI is used
Original evidence
Evidence 1Set clear expectations for using generative AI tools including how to cite or reference appropriately, if permitted (Mollick & Mollick, 2023). If students do use AI, they should have prompts readily available to explain how they made use of them and explain their process.
