Whilst it is useful to share personal information such as email address, telephone number etc with Governors at the same school/college (in a single school/college GVO) this is not the case where the GVO is being used by a Multi Academy Trust (MAT).
In the case of a GVO set up in a MAT the system operates 'data redaction' such that personal data is 'hidden' based on certain rules. The rules are based on membership of the Trust and Local Boards.
Note: The data that is 'hidden' includes email address, telephone number and address. The 'Other Information' box remains visible to all users of the GVO.
1. All users who are in the same board can see the email address etc of other users in that board. If users are not on the same board in the GVO then the data is redacted. This will be the case in all parts of the GVO (profiles, member lists, board lists etc).
2. The GVO Manager can see the information (this is necessary as they set up the user profile)
Below are examples of how the redaction looks....
1. Member List
2. Board List (viewed by a user not on that board but who shares board membership in other boards)
3. User profile
If you require more information about data redaction please contact the support desk.
