Data Privacy Day / Month

January 27, 2021 - February 28, 2021

It's that time of year again! With Data Privacy Month upon us, we turn the conversation to privacy in times of crisis. Privacy must be balanced against the many rights, values, and desires of our society, such as public health, student success, and efficient workplace technologies. This balance is among the most challenging issues of our time. UC San Diego are committed to striking and maintaining that balance and protecting the privacy of our students, employees, alumni, donors, patients, and research participants. Privacy is essential to many core university activities, and the UC San Diego Guiding Principles for Personal Data are designed to protect individuals and their data while not hampering the business of the university.

Please join us as we celebrate Data Privacy Month with the following programs:
