POLICY NOTICE

To exercise and safeguard academic freedom and uphold your right to quality education, lyceum-Northwestern University (L-NU)  needs to process your personal and sensitive personal information (personal data) – that is, information that identifies you as an individual.

L-NU is committed to comply with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA) https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/2012/08/15/republic-act-no-10173/ in order to protect your right to data privacy. 

This privacy notice explains in general terms: 

1. The nature, purpose/(s)  and extent of the processing of  your personal data;

2. the legal basis/(es) for such processing; 

3. the risks associated with such processing and the measures that L-NU has put in place to protect your data privacy; and 

4. your data privacy rights and how you may exercise the same.

Please note that there are specific  privacy notices for L-NU portals i.e. AIMS Online, L-NU data processing systems e.g. privacy notice for pre enrollment health assessment, the registration system that you used or are using in order to enroll, the learning management system (LMS), etc. of your campus that may also apply to the processing of your personal data. System wide privacy notices are available and posted.

The term AIMS refers to L-NU’s Academic Information Management System, and to any of its offices, or any of its officials or authorized personnel. 

The term you/your refers to all students of the L-NU AIMS, as well as those qualified to enroll in L-NU who seek to be admitted to the University and, where the context so indicates, in the case of students and admission applicants who are below eighteen (18) years of age, their  parents or guardians who also sign registration related forms. 

PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED FROM STUDENTS, AND THE PURPOSE/S AND LEGAL BASIS/ES FOR PROCESSING SUCH INFORMATION

Various L-NU offices collect your personal data through paper based and online processing systems. L-NU may likewise collect publicly available information about you as allowed by the DPA. Some application forms require you to provide a photograph. In some instances, your image is captured by L-NU’s closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras, or when L-NU documents, records, broadcasts (including live streaming), or publishes University activities or events.

When you applied for admission to L-NU you provided us, through the forms you submitted and signed (and in the case of minors– that your parents/guardians also signed), among others, your name, sex assigned at birth, date and place of birth, citizenship, your photograph, information about your family (names of your parents, their citizenship, civil status), if applicable, your access credentials for the portal you used in order to file your application for admission,  signature and other personal information that we use, along with other documents you provide us (e.g. information contained in educational records and your PSA birth certificate and or marriage certificate) to be able to verify your identity  in the course of determining your eligibility to enroll in L-NU.

We required you to attest that the information that you provided us is true and correct as we also use the information in order to prevent the commission of fraud. Such processing is necessary for compliance with our legal obligation as a Private University and to uphold our legitimate interest as an educational institution. When you provide L-NU with the personal data of third parties i.e. your parents and or your legal guardian or other person you have identified as your person to contact in case of emergency you warrant that you have obtained their consent for L-NU to process their personal data  and will hold L-NU free and harmless from all liabilities for the processing of their personal data that you have provided to the University pursuant to its policies,  rules and regulations.

Non-Filipino citizens seeking admission to the University are required to provide personal data in order for L-NU to ascertain that their admission and enrollment is allowed under applicable Philippine laws, rules and regulations, and University rules and procedures.

Upon your initial enrollment as well as in the case of your re-admission (if applicable),   as a precondition for  the issuance of your L-NU admission slip, you were required pursuant applicable university policies  to sign and submit the L-NU student pledge as attached to your enrollment form to your University Registrar which states:

In consideration of my admission to Lyceum-Northwestern University and of the privileges of a student in this institution, I hereby promise and pledge to abide by and comply with all the rules and regulations laid down by competent authority in the University and in the College or School in which I am enrolled. 

By signing and submitting such student pledge you entered into a  contract with L-NU.  

Your personal information e.g. your name, photograph, signature,  sex assigned at birth, address, contact information, the name of your parents,  etc.  will be processed by L-NU (for recently admitted students) or,  in the case of continuing students, was processed pursuant to such contract under 12b of the DPA.

As for your sensitive personal information, such as information related to your education; your exact birthdate and age;    health information processed by L-NU offices in connection with your admission,  such health information you submit for excusing your absence(s),  the filing of leave of absence, readmission from absence without leave,  appeals and the like;      and, if applicable, information about your religious affiliation;  information that you are a member of an Indigenous Peoples group; your civil status (in the event you are a married woman who opts to use the surname of your spouse); information regarding any offense that you have committed or alleged to have committed for which   disciplinary proceedings may be conducted by L-NU, your  L-NU student number and other government issued identification card information or document e.g.

PSA birth certificate or marriage certificate that you submit to L-NU (in the case of a married woman who opts to use the surname of her spouse),   it is understood that by entering  into such contract with L-NU through the signing of the student pledge, you necessarily grant L-NU  your consent for  the processing of your  sensitive personal information pursuant to  the abovementioned applicable rules and regulations that L-NU adopted in order for the University  to provide you with quality education such that there is no further need for us  to obtain your consent for such processing done in the exercise of L-NU’s academic freedom. 

The personal data of  students who continue to avail of the services of L-NU i.e. continuing students and  those applying for certifications,  clearances, true copy of grades,  transcripts and other L-NU official documents shall continue to be processed pursuant to contract under 12b (contract) and 13a (consent) of the DPA.

 Note that National Privacy Commission (NPC)   the body tasked with implementing the DPA, issued  Advisory Opinion 2022-14 https://privacy.gov.ph/wp-content/L-NUloads/2022/08/Advisory-Opinion-No.-2022-014_Redacted.pdf which states: 

Although the “fulfillment of a contract” requirement is not included in the enumeration in Section 13, the NPC anchors the processing of sensitive personal information within the university's educational framework upon consent based on jurisprudence defining the contractual nature of the relationship between the school and the student. Hence, upon enrollment, the student and the university are deemed to have executed a contract imbued with public interest that necessarily carries with it the consent of both parties. A different interpretation would otherwise create an absurd situation where schools may not process or use their student’s educational information for his or her own education and benefit.

Processing of personal data within the educational framework in relation to academic freedom. 

At this juncture, the NPC would like to clarify that educational institutions may process personal data to achieve the purposes within its educational framework without the need for consent of the data subject. The data subject in an educational setting includes students, faculty and staff. It is then of utmost importance that the school delineates all processing operations, carefully identifying those that are core to the educational framework and those outside of it (e.g. marketing or public relations purposes) 

 x x x

Connected to this, the supreme Court reiterated in the Isabelo, Jr. case, the doctrine in Ateneo de Manila University vs. Capulong that:“ this Court cited with approval the formulation made by Justice Felix Frankfurter of the essential freedoms subsumed in the term ‘academic freedom’ encompassing not only ‘the freedom to determine . . . on academic grounds who may teach, what may be taught (and) how it shall be taught’ but likewise ‘who may be admitted to study.’”

In the same vein, the NPC respects the same doctrine of  Academic Freedom for the processing of personal data within the educational framework, if it is in accordance with the provisions of the DPA and other existing laws, rules and regulations. The NPC will remain neutral on the chosen methods and technology by the educational institution as long as it is within the bounds of the law (footnotes omitted).. 

You may wish to refer to  the case of Garcia vs. Faculty Admissions Committee Loyola School of Theology G.R. No. L-40779 November 28, 1975 68 SCRA 277 (1975) cited in University of the Philippines vs. Arokiaswamy G.R. No. 134625. August 31, 1999 https://elibrary.judiciary.gov.ph/thebookshelf/showdocs/1/3688 which states that:  

Wide indeed is the sphere of autonomy granted to institutions of higher learning, for the constitutional grant of academic freedom, to quote again from Garcia v. Faculty Admission Committee, Loyola School of Theology, “is not to be construed in a niggardly manner or in a grudging fashion (footnotes omitted,underscoring supplied).”

L-NU processes your personal data , in the course of fulfilling its obligation, to provide you quality education by exercising its right to academic freedom, and upholding academic standards, when the University’s duly authorized personnel process your enrollment; evaluate the work that you submit in fulfillment of your academic requirements and give you grades; act on your applications for change of matriculation, dropping, leave of absence and the like; determine your academic progress and compliance with the University’s retention and other rules; evaluate and recommend you for graduation; act on appeals on such matters; and, in the event you are qualified under the rules, recommend that you be awarded honors upon your graduation.

Aside from sensitive personal information in the form of grades, you also provide L-NU with health information as part of the admission and registration processes so that the University may determine your physical fitness to enroll; and be able to provide you with the proper care when you avail of L-NU’s health services; or in case of an emergency; or in compliance with University rules that are meant to uphold academic standards (e.g., submission of medical certificates in order for your absences to be excused, for you to drop a subject, go on leave of absence, or justify underloading in an appeal to graduate with honors, etc.).

L-NU processes information regarding your religious affiliation in the course of verifying your identity (e.g. offices match information in your birth certificate and school records provided to us etc.) to conduct research to see to it that we uphold the principle of democratic access; and that, as a non-sectarian institution, we do not discriminate on the basis of religious creed; and to uphold your right to freedom of religion (e.g. by providing you with services that are consistent with your beliefs in relation to your health needs and food preparation, etc.).

Contact information is processed by L-NU in order to be able to communicate effectively with you, and to enable us to contact your family or other people you identify, in the case of an emergency. For example, L-NU offices or your teachers may use the information generated by the applicable registration system in order to contact you via email or via a messaging system for class related and other academic matters, as well as L-NU related activities and information. L-NU may also contact you in order to solicit your consent to participate in academic or non-commercial research.

L-NU processes personal data, and, in particular, financial information related to your studies, in order to administer State-funded and privately financed scholarships, as well as grants or other forms of assistance, pursuant to its contractual or legal obligations as part of the University’s legitimate interests and, as well as relevant third parties, such as donors or sponsors.

CCTVs and other security measures which may involve the processing of your personal data  are intended to protect your vitally important interests, for public order and safety, and are processed pursuant to the University’s and the public’s legitimate interests. L-NU processes personal data in order to comply with its duty as an academic institution to exercise due diligence to prevent harm or injury to you or others.

You may also be required to present your L-NU ID, or if such is not yet available, your government issued identification card when you avail of University services, or when you request documents containing your personal data. If you request such information through a representative, L-NU will require that you provide a letter of authorization specifying the information or document requested, the purpose(s) for which the same will be used, and the presentation of your L-NU ID or other valid government-issued identification card (GIID), as well the GIID of your duly authorized representative, in order for L-NU to see to it that fraud is prevented, and your right to data privacy is upheld.

L-NU will process your name, student number and photograph in order to issue your L-NU radio-frequency enabled identification (RFID). A unique, randomly generated number, as well as your student number, will be encoded in the RFID tag or chip of your L-NU ID such that these will be the only information that can be read by a compatible RFID reader.

L-NU, using its RFID readers, will process the abovementioned information when you tap or wave your L-NU ID card in close proximity to such readers in order to:

1. regulate access to libraries and other University buildings in order to supplement other existing security measures in place;

2. provide you with RFID enabled services in L-NU offices where these are applicable or available; and

3. provide benefits to qualified students pursuant to relevant internal rules.

L-NU likewise  stores your personal data pursuant to Sec. 11 (f) of the DPA  which states Provided, That personal information collected for other purposes may lie processed for historical, statistical or scientific purposes, and in cases laid down in law may be stored for longer periods: Provided, further, That adequate safeguards are guaranteed by said laws authorizing their processing.

L-NU conducts research on stored,  previously processed,  de-identified   data in order to comply with its legal obligations including its right and responsibility to exercise academic freedom. L-NU as a  university must conduct scientific research in order to produce general demographic information and  statistics regarding L-NU students across various time periods. Such research enables the University to assess whether its policies, programs, as well as procedures  and revisions to the same in different years, enable  the University, among others, to enhance the access of disadvantaged students to L-NU programs and services, comply with the spirit of  other applicable laws such as the  Unified Student Financial Assistance System for Tertiary Education (UniFAST) Act, and to allow us to provide advice and technical assistance to public authorities such as, the Commission on Higher Education,  the UniFAST Board, etc.
