CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

FOR EMPLOYEES, CONSULTANTS, CONTRACTORS, VOLUNTEERS (WOC), AND

OTHER DESIGNATED INDIVIDUALS WHO CONDUCT BUSINESS ON BEHALF OF

HOWARD UNIVERSITY

As an employee, consultant, contractor, volunteer (WOC) or other designated individuals

who conduct business on behalf of Howard University, I may have occasion to come into

the knowledge and/or possession of personal and private information relating to other

employees, consultants, contractors volunteers (WOC) or other designated individuals

who conduct business on behalf of Howard University. I hereby agree to follow University

rules for the protection of information to which I have access and to keep such information

private and confidential.

I understand that financial and employee information from any source, including

information about another employee that comes directly from that employee and in any

form, does not belong to me, belongs to the University, is private and confidential, and is

available to me solely because of my relationship with the University as a Howard

University employee, consultant, contractor, volunteer (WOC) or other designated

individuals who conduct business on behalf of Howard University. I agree that I will not

disclose to anyone or to any entity, private and confidential financial and employee

information to which I have access and shall use it solely for the performance of my

official duties for Howard University. I also understand that through PeopleSoft,

Mercer’s Connect V7 and other systems, I may have the capacity to access financial

and employee information outside of my unit of responsibility. I agree NOT to access

financial or employee information outside my unit of responsibility, without express

written authorization from the administrative authority responsible for that unit.

I FURTHER AGREE THAT:

1. I will only access information that I need to perform my job.

2. I will protect and maintain the privacy of financial and employee information.

3. I will keep my passwords secret and will not share them with anyone for any of the

systems cited above as well as other University-wide technology systems that may

be in use.

4. I will keep my passwords and/or access codes secret for inner office password

protected files, data, and other programs and will not share them with anyone.

5. I will not use anyone else's password to access HU confidential sites.

6. I will log off any password protected applications each and every time before leaving

my workstation, regardless of the length of time I will be away from my workstation.

7. I will not show, tell, copy, give, sell, review, change or discard any confidential

information unless it is part of my job. If it is part of my job to do any of these tasks, I

will follow the correct departmental procedure (such as shredding confidential papers

before throwing them away). I understand that I must obtain and retain a current copy

of the correct departmental procedures and will keep these procedures posted at my

work station. I understand that a copy of these procedures will always be available

from my supervisor.
