Listserv Policy

EduTech, as a strategic partner of the North Dakota University System (NDUS), provides use of the LISTSERV™ e-mail list management software to North Dakota K-12 schools and organizations. In order to provide the best service and to maintain our partnership with NDUS, we have adopted the following policies regarding administration and use of e-mail lists.

  1. Requests for e-mail lists may only be submitted by staff members of North Dakota K-12 schools and educational organizations.
  2. Names of e-mail lists must start with the SDT- prefix, for example SDT-DLHS.
  3. List owners must have valid EduTech accounts and this account must be used for e-mail list management.
  4. All lists are for educational purposes only. No list may be used for commercial purposes by the list owner or any of its subscribers. Informational postings of a commercial nature by educational business partners may be allowed. Final determination of whether a message constitutes ‘commercial use’ is up to EduTech staff and may not be appealed.
  5. All subscribers from any source are expected to abide by both EduTech and NDUS acceptable use policies (http://www.edutech.nodak.edu/support/policies/aup/) and http://www.ndus.edu/NDUS_Tech_Info/policies/).
  6. Information shared on any private list (lists allowing subscription by owner only) is considered privileged information for subscribers only. You may not distribute or make public postings to any private list without the consent of the author.

Failure to abide by this policy may result in the subscriber’s removal from one or more lists, deletion of entire e-mail lists as well as further disciplinary and/or legal action. All lists are the property of EduTech and NDUS. Access to lists is provided to organizations or school district as a service. Final determination of list status is up to EduTech staff and may not be appealed.
