Student Web Page Policy

Information Technology Services (ITS) no longer supports student web pages or maintains a directory of such pages. The policy below is applicable to student web pages that currently exist.

Since the student server is part of UWA, it is necessary that web pages on the machine conform to University standards. The rules and guidelines are presented below. You should read and be familiar with these if you plan to create and maintain web pages on the student server.

Rules

General standards

Any webpage on the student server must conform to the following minimum standards:

  1. No material that is unlawful, obscene or inappropriate to the image University of Western Australia wishes to present.
  2. No material that infringes Australian copyright law. Prior written consent must be obtained before anything "substantial" is displayed - this includes songs and lyrics, photographs, and drawings.
  3. No commercial material.
  4. No defamatory comments.
  5. Any links must be explicit as to their destination - links cannot be misleading.
  6. The page must contain the date that the information was last current.

Note:

In addition to the above rules, ITS may have to apply further restrictions to meet AARNet access policy and the budget limits of ITS . Web pages that receive a very high number of accesses from off campus can result in significant network load and traffic expense for ITS.
