The following privacy notice agreement is displayed the first time any user logs into the support site. Users must accept this notice before they can continue and access the support site:
Atomwide processes personal and sensitive data relating to pupils and staff on behalf of UK schools, various Local and Regional Authority agencies, and some third party companies that support these establishments. Atomwide is diligent in its protection of that data against any unauthorised access or usage, and compliance with both the legal and moral aims of data protection legislation is an essential element of that protection.
To this end, Atomwide retains an audit trail of changes made to personal data, whether via the Support Site, the my.uso.im service, any other USO-integrated service, or by direct request. Most requests or enquiries relating to personal data, and/or mass data, can only be accepted via instructions submitted online using an appropriately authorised USO account.
When responding to telephone enquiries, Atomwide reserves the right to ask for an OTP (One Time Password) code to verify the identity of the caller. All calls to Atomwide's Service Desk and mainline numbers may be recorded for quality assurance and data protection purposes. Atomwide publishes service announcements from time to time, and is proactive about ensuring that its users receive timely information about, and ready access to, new developments wherever possible. Users acknowledging these Ts & Cs will receive such communications by email. Users may unsubscribe to this service at any time using the controls on the support site's "My Account : Email" page.
