Localized display only

UTS AI system use must comply with privacy, procurement, information security and acceptable-use policies as appropriate.

Security Review

UTS's AI Operations Procedure requires a six-stage identification, assessment, approval, implementation, and management process before developing, deploying, procuring, or activating AI systems or AI capabilities.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence96%

Normalized value: six_stage_process_required_before_ai_development_deployment_procurement_activation

Original evidence

Evidence 1
4.3 When considering an AI system, UTS applies a 6-stage process for identification, assessment, approval, implementation and management. These steps must be followed before the development, deployment or procurement of an AI system or activation of an AI capability within an existing system.

Localized display only

The procedure says UTS applies a six-stage process and those steps must be followed before AI development, deployment, procurement or capability activation.

Procurement

UTS's Artificial Intelligence Operations Policy guides the use, procurement, development, and management of AI for teaching, learning, and operations, while directing research use to the separate research guidelines.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence95%

Normalized value: policy_covers_teaching_learning_operations_ai_procurement_development_management_research_separate_guidelines

Original evidence

Evidence 1
1.1 The Artificial Intelligence Operations Policy (the policy) guides the use, procurement, development and management of artificial intelligence (AI) at UTS for the purposes of teaching, learning and operations. 2.3 This policy does not apply to research projects and outputs (including university consulting). Information on the use of AI in research, as well as required research approvals and ethics clearances, is provided in the Research Policy and the Use of AI in Research Guidelines.

Localized display only

The policy covers AI use/procurement/development/management for teaching, learning and operations, while research use is handled through research policy and AI research guidelines.

Research

UTS research guidance tells researchers to check confidentiality, licence, and agreement restrictions before uploading data to GenAI tools, and to follow relevant IT, Acceptable Use, and Data Governance policies when a GenAI tool accesses UTS IT or network resources or is deployed on a UTS device.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence94%

Normalized value: researchers_check_confidentiality_restrictions_and_follow_it_acceptable_use_data_governance_for_genai_tools

Original evidence

Evidence 1
Maintain confidentiality Are you breaching confidentiality (ethical, cultural or commercial) or licences or agreements by uploading the data into a GenAI tool? Check for restrictions in contracts, agreements or licences. If you are considering using a GenAI tool that will have access to UTS IT or network resources, or be deployed on a UTS device, you must follow relevant IT policies, including the Information Security Policy, the Acceptable Use of Information Technology Resources Policy and the Data Governance Policy.

Localized display only

The research guidelines ask researchers to check confidentiality and contractual restrictions before uploading data, and require relevant IT/data policies for GenAI tools connected to UTS IT or devices.

Academic Integrity

UTS Education Express says university misconduct rules apply to AI use in assessments, students must acknowledge AI-tool use, and students should only use AI tools to generate verbatim assessment materials when instructed that this is appropriate.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence93%

Normalized value: assessment_ai_use_subject_to_misconduct_rules_acknowledgement_required_verbatim_materials_only_when_instructed

Original evidence

Evidence 1
University misconduct rules apply to the use of AI in assessments, students must acknowledge their use of these tools and only use them to generate verbatim materials for assessment when instructed that this is appropriate.

Localized display only

UTS teaching guidance links AI assessment use to misconduct rules, acknowledgement, and instructor permission for verbatim AI-generated assessment material.

Privacy

UTS Library's GenAI guide tells students that if GenAI use has not been allowed by the subject coordinator it is academic misconduct, allowed GenAI content must be referenced or acknowledged, and students should not enter personal details, confidential data, assignment text, or research text into GenAI tools.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence91%

Normalized value: library_students_ai_not_allowed_is_misconduct_allowed_content_referenced_acknowledged_no_personal_confidential_assignment_research_text

Original evidence

Evidence 1
If the use of GenAI has not been allowed by your subject coordinator, using this content in your assignment is considered academic misconduct (cheating). Even when the use of GenAI is allowed, any content that you use must be appropriately referenced or acknowledged. Privacy concerns. When you submit content to a GenAI tool, you give them the right to re-use and distribute this content. So it is important not to enter any personal details, confidential data or text from your assignments or research.

Localized display only

UTS Library says unallowed GenAI assignment use is misconduct, allowed content must be referenced or acknowledged, and personal/confidential/assignment/research text should not be entered into GenAI tools.

Ai Tool Treatment

UTS Library says UTS staff and students have access to Microsoft Copilot, and describes logged-in Copilot as a protected version where data is not used to train the AI and files and intellectual property are safe; the guide calls it the preferred tool for learning support.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence90%

Normalized value: library_copilot_access_for_staff_students_logged_in_protected_version_preferred_learning_support_tool

Original evidence

Evidence 1
UTS staff and students have access to Microsoft Copilot. Copilot is a GenAI tool with GPT-4o and DALL-E that generates text or image content based on your prompts. It's free and easy to use, and if you log in with your UTS ID and password, you are able to access a protected version. This means that your data isn't being used to train the AI and your files and intellectual property are safe. If you want to use generative AI to support your learning, this is the preferred tool.

Localized display only

UTS Library identifies Microsoft Copilot access for staff/students and says the logged-in protected version does not use data to train AI; the guide calls it the preferred learning-support tool.
