UT’s contract with Google allows students, faculty, and staff to store Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), personally identifiable information (PII) data, and protected health information (HIPPA/PHI). Google Drive is online storage that allows you to store photos, stories, designs, drawings, recordings, videos – almost anything, in a networked storage area.
