What kind of data does the Duo app not collect?
- Duo has no access to your apps, files, contacts, pictures, movies, text messages, or emails stored on your phone.
- Duo does not monitor or track your internet activity, including what websites you visit or what data you send to or download from other websites.
- Duo does not sell your device data to other companies.
What kind of data does the Duo app collect?
- Duo does collect the names of applications you have saved in the Duo app, but only the name of the application is saved. Any interaction you have with those applications or data you send/receive are not monitored or saved.
- Duo does collect the On/Off value of various security-related settings on your phone. For example, Duo will log whether you do or do not have fingerprint or face recognition enabled, but the actual fingerprints or facial scans are not accessible by Duo. Duo will log whether your device is “jailbroken” or “rooted,” whether it is encrypted, what operating system it is running, and whether you have a screen lock enabled.
What kind of permissions does Duo need on my phone?
- Duo does ask for the ability to provide Notifications to you. This is used to notify you of login attempts and ask for your approval. You can remove this permission, but you’ll need to remember to manually open the app whenever you need to approve a Duo request.
- Duo does ask for access to the network so that it can send and receive information about your login attempts. You can remove this permission, but you’ll then need to rely on the offline Passcode authentication method that isn’t as easy or convenient as other options.
- Duo does ask for camera access so that it can scan for QR codes to more easily add accounts to the app. You can remove this permission, but you will then need to type a long string of numbers and letters into the app instead.
My Evergreen laptop is lost or stolen, what should I do?
If any Evergreen laptop is lost or stolen, the user should contact their supervisor immediately. Then, the user or their supervisor should submit two critical forms on myHelpdesk. First, submit the LOST OR STOLEN DEVICE REPORT form as it is critical that our Privacy Office and Security Teams can carry out the proper protocols for a lost piece of IT Equipment. Then submit the EVERGREEN LAPTOP REQUEST form and choose “disenroll an Evergreen user,” so that ITS stops monthly billing for the laptop. ITS will follow up with the department and user as needed and the department can expect to be charged for the remaining value of the device.
Will my Evergreen laptop work at the hybrid workstations that are available at 575 Lex?
Data Documentation

Why Should I Share Data and Code
- It is required by some journal publishers (e.g., Nature), and funding agencies (e.g., the National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation, etc.). It is expected other funding agencies will also require researchers to share data produced during the course of their funded research based on a recently released Office of Science and Technology Policy Memo.
