10. INFORMATION

What is this consent for?

This Consent Form authorises the Department and the State to use the Individual’s personal information and copyright material, together with information about the Individual’s participation in Departmental and State initiatives, for any use by the Department and the State associated with the purposes identified in Section 6 of this Consent Form. The consent covers the entire or partial use of the Individual’s personal information and copyright material in conjunction with other words and images.

For example, the Individual’s personal information and copyright material may appear in school newsletters, magazines, websites (including Social Media Websites) and other school, departmental or State publications, as well as in television advertising, videos, brochures, forms, public relations displays, annual reports, press advertising, internal documents such as manuals, websites, certificates and strategic plans, and posters and other promotional material. There may also be occasions on which the Department may approve the media, such as local newspapers and television stations, using information and copyright material in relation to the Individual (for example, where the Individual is involved in dramatic or musical performances, sporting activities or award ceremonies).

Websites

Individuals and Signatories should be aware that publication of an Individual’s personal information and Individual work on Social Media Websites is similar to publication in newsletters, magazines, brochures, etc; however publication on Social Media Websites is publication of that material to the world at large.

Individuals and Signatories should be aware that the publication of an Individual’s personal information and Individual work, by the Department or the State, on a Social Media Website typically constitutes a permanent and publicly available record of that material. This means that anyone may be able to copy and use an Individual’s personal information and Individual work that has been published on a Social Media Website for any purpose and without the consent or knowledge of the Department, the State or the Individual. Individuals or Signatories should not grant their consent to the Department or the State to use an Individual’s personal information or Individual work in connection with a Social Media Website if the Individual or Signatory does not agree to the material being permanently available to the public.

If an Individual’s personal information or Individual work is published on a Social Media Website, that material will be governed by the privacy policy and terms of use of the relevant Social Media Website. The Department or State cannot reasonably control how an Individual’s personal information or Individual work is used by third parties once the material has been published on a Social Media Website.

Uncontrolled Copy. Refer to the Department of Education and Training Policy and Procedure Register at http://ppr.det.qld.gov.au to ensure you have the most current version of this document. Page 4 of 4

What is copyright material?

An Individual’s copyright material may include written work (e.g. stories and poems), paintings, pictures, drawings, designs, photographs, videos, films, music, performance, recordings, computer programs, websites, sculptures, fashion, metal- or wood-works made by them or to which they contributed. In the case of students, it includes, but is not limited to, work that they create in the course of their studies during the time they are enrolled at a State school. These materials may form part of their academic assessment or be part of their studies generally and may attract copyright.

The Department understands that students and volunteers generally own the intellectual property rights in the material they create and that this Consent Form is not meant to transfer the Individual’s ownership of the intellectual property in their copyright material.

This Consent Form does not provide for copyright consent in relation to copyright works an Individual creates in the course of employment (whether or not the material is created in normal work hours or using departmental facilities or equipment). Where copyright material is created by a State employee while performing their duties under the terms of their employment, the copyright is owned by the State as the employer (section 35 Copyright Act 1968). There are limited exceptions to this including, for example, where the copyright material is created by an employee pursuant to a prior agreement with the employer.

Generally, the deciding factor is whether the employee is performing their official duties. In addition, section 176 of the Copyright Act 1968 applies where the work was created by or under the direction or control of the State. However, moral rights may still apply to copyright material created by an employee. The Queensland Public Sector Intellectual Property Principles provide further information on intellectual property. If as an employee you have any further queries about the ownership of the intellectual property in respect of the works you create you should contact the Legal and Administrative Law Branch.

What is personal information?

Personal information includes information or opinions, whether true or not, about an individual whose identity is apparent or can reasonably be ascertained from the information or opinion. This includes the Individual’s name, image or video or sound recording. It also includes the Individual’s educational information such as the Individual’s assessment and results, and health information and court orders provided to the Department, where such information may enable the Individual to be identified.

What happens to the Consent Form once it is completed and signed?

The Consent Form is retained by the Department and it will be placed on the Individual’s file and/or the project file. The Individual or Signatory may request a copy of the signed form by contacting the Principal of the school.

What if I give my consent and later change my mind?

This consent will be in effect from the date the Consent Form is signed. The Department and the State will then start using the Individual’s personal information and Individual work to create material incorporating the Individual’s personal information and Individual work and entering into contractual obligations in relation to that material.

If you wish to later modify or revoke this consent, the Individual or the Signatory should send a notice in writing to the person nominated in Section 2 of this Consent Form. After that notice is received, the Department and the State will not make any new additional use of the Individual work, but any existing uses will continue.

Where the Department or another person uploads material to a Social Media Website or other website, it may need to accept contractual obligations that are perpetual and irrevocable. It may not be possible to ensure that all copies of the material are deleted or cease to be used, and the Department and the State cannot take responsibility for doing so.

Privacy

The consent to the recording, use and disclosure of the Individual’s personal information and Individual work is required in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth), the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 and the Information Privacy Act 2009. Personal information will be stored securely. The Department will only disclose the Individual’s personal information in accordance with your consent, except where authorised or required by law. If you wish to access or correct any of the personal information on this form or discuss how it has been dealt with, or if you have a concern or complaint about the way the Individual’s personal information has been collected, used, stored or disclosed, please contact the school.

Do not place anything else in the protective case apart from the laptop

Clean the screen with a soft dry cloth or anti-static cloth rubbing gently and slowly in a circular motion

DO NOT use liquids to clean the screen

Taking care of yourself To ensure a safe and comfortable working environment, students should consider the following points whilst at

school and at home.

Students are advised to:

Using your laptop To help create a safe and comfortable working environment students should consider the following points when

at school and at home.

Laptop security

When students are taking their laptops home, they must turn it off and pack it in its protective case before

travelling.

It is important to note, that while a laptop is in a student’s care, its security is the student’s responsibility. If a

student is concerned about the safety of their laptop, they should speak to their teachers.

Laptop battery charging:

It is the student’s responsibility to make sure their laptop has adequate charge before taking it to school. A

laptop fully charged prior to school will last all day. Battery life can be enhanced by use/recharging patterns that

allow the battery to fully discharge before charging, rather than sitting on constant charge.

Playing of games and engaging in other internet browsing activities during break times will drain the battery and

render it useless for learning activities. Students are to avoid using their laptops for such activities during the

school day so that they can make the best of their learning opportunities.

Data Security:

It is the responsibility of the student to backup all personal data. Ideally, all personal data and files should be

stored on the student’s home drive (H:) at school and on a pe rsonal USB drive.

Loading additional software:

The software loaded on the laptop is licensed to DETE or the school. The parent or caregiver must ensure that

the software is not copied, deleted or transferred, without prior written consent from the school. Unauthorised

use may breach copyright laws and the parent or caregiver may be held liable for any damages incurred.

Students may have the ability to install additional software onto the laptop. However, only licensed software

can be installed and the licence must be appropriate for installation on the laptop.

It should be noted that no file sharing (bit-torrent, newsgroups, magnet, etc.) software is installed in any way,

and the use or distribution of warez (games, software and other media including music and videos) is strictly

forbidden under school and departmental policy and are in violation of Australian copyright law. Students found

with any of the above material will have their devices rebuilt and all student data will be lost.

Laptops may be audited by a school requiring students to present a valid software licence for any personal

software installed. Laptops may be rebuilt at any time for numerous reasons without consultation with students

or parents and all local data may be lost in this process. Please ensure that you keep regular backups of your

current work in both your school H drive and other personal storage locations including USB media drive or

email.

Laptop Repairs:

Laptops requiring repair are to be delivered to the IT Technician upstairs C Block East – during lunch breaks only.

In the case of your laptop requiring repair a daily loan laptop may be borrowed from the library. If you require a

daily loan you are required to collect this at the beginning of the school day (prior to 9:00am) and return this at

the end of the school day (after 2:50pm)

Damage and loss of equipment All devices and batteries are covered by a manufacturer’s warranty which covers manufacturing defects through

normal usage.

There is no cover for negligence, abuse or malicious damage. Students will be required to replace lost or

damaged equipment.

Costs incurred by the school for the repair or replacement of devices will be charged by the school as an excess

to parents. In the event of non-compliance of agreed responsibilities, schools may review the student’s

continued participation in the take-home program.

Any software or hardware issues, vandalism, damage, loss or theft of the device must be reported immediately

to the school. Please ensure that you do not write on or scratch anything into your device or protective case, it

may be necessary to replace components of laptops at your cost if this form on vandalism is detected. Please

note – NO WRITING or markings are to be made to personalise the device- this includes stickers as the residue

from the adhesive can damage the surface.

Theft If the device is stolen outside of school, the parent/caregiver will need to report the incident to the

police and ensure they have the following documentation when informing the school:

Police crime number (QP Number); and Statutory declaration (usually completed with the police).

On receipt of the necessary documentation, DETE will initiate recovery procedures via in the inbuilt theft protection software, Computrace®. Should a device be unrecoverable – whether lost or stolen, the cost of replacement will be as per the unit cost.

Accidental damage Where a device is accidentally damaged, schools will invoice the student’s parents according to the cost of the

repairs. Repairs will be charged using a cost recovery methodology, e.g. the costs incurred by the school will be

passed onto the students account.

Wilful and malicious damage Where a school determines that damage has been intentionally caused to a device or a student has disrespected
