  • Faculty and staff who use UiO's digital services, such as e-mail, on private devices are advised not to download or use TikTok and Telegram on these devices.

  • Where there are official needs to use these apps, devices that are separate from UiO's internal systems must be used.

The IT department has also prepared a website with safety advice in connection with the installation and use of apps. The advice is general and applies to all apps you want to install. Remember to always consider carefully whether you actually need to install the app.
