The University image database contains University images for use in printed materials and websites. The purpose of the image database is to create a central distribution source for all University images.

Images are an increasingly important part of communication, but how do you choose suitable ones for the website and where can you find them? This page offers tips on finding the right image and what to watch out for.

The images included in the image database are solely intended for use on the University website or in University printed materials.

A data processing register is a record of which personal data you process and who you share this data with. If you collect personal data for your research, you must record this in the data processing register.

If you bring in a (new) person who will be processing personal data for you, this person is not allowed to use this information for his or her own purposes. You need to formalise this in a data processing agreement. The university will usually have an agreement in place.

Are you handling personal data just once, for instance when taking the minutes of a meeting or organising an employee outing? You do not need to include this use in the data processing register if you stick to the following conditions.
