USU Website Usage Rules

1. Departments, faculties and work units are responsible for creating and updating their pages. Always update the information on related websites.
2. Departments, faculties and work units must provide an English version of the website.
3. Department, faculty and work unit websites must have an RSS feed. If the website uses USU's WordPress functionality, an RSS feed will be generated automatically. If the department/faculty/work unit website is made by yourself, make sure it has RSS feed capabilities.
4. Be aware of all copyright issues. Make sure you have permission to use the material you post from the relevant author or photographer. Make sure ingredients are labeled correctly. Also review the legal notice on the copyright/property page and provide a link to this page if you need one for your site.
5. Each department, faculty or work unit must have at least one person who is fully responsible for the contents of the related website (website administrator).
6. The website administrator is responsible for ensuring that authors of university materials keep the materials up-to-date and do not post inappropriate materials on the educational institution's website. Authors should always assume that all content on websites hosted on university servers can be public (free-for-all access), even if they are not actually intended for the public. It is important to keep the material up-to-date and available. Changes to this page cannot be made without notification from the entity responsible for content management. For more information, contact the USU Help Desk/ Call Center.
7. Website operators are responsible for ensuring that their websites are accessible to users with disabilities who can use assistive technology (eg screen readers or screen magnifiers) to read the website. Information about university studies and programs should be accessible to everyone. In addition, elements of lecture programs and materials offered online must be easily accessible.
8. If the information displayed is related to time, the effective date must be clearly stated (eg "tuition fees 2022-2023").
