Access to Electronic Records

The University of California’s Electronic Communications Policy governs when and how the University may access an employee’s electronic records, emails, and other data.  UC Davis’ Campus Policy 310-24, Electronic Communications – Privacy and Access  describes the campus-specific procedure that must be followed to access that data.  

The Campus Privacy Office reviews all access requests.   If you would like to submit a request for electronic records, complete the following forms and submit to the Privacy Office for review:

  1. Access with Consent Form 
  2. Access without Consent Form* 

*Before submitting an Access without Consent Form, a reasonable effort should be made to first seek Access with Consent.  If no effort was made, the Access Without Consent request should describe why Access with Consent was not feasible.
