The Acceptable Use Policy is to protect these resources in accordance with state law and Regents Rules. Any individual needing access (guest login) to UT Tyler Information Technology is governed by state law and Regents Rules, specifically UTS 165, UT System Information Resources Use and Security Policy and must sign and return a copy of this Acceptable Use Policy to the Department of Information Technology.

If a guest sign in is needed, please contact ITSupport@uttyler.edu well in advance of your event.
