Havergal Media  By sending your daughter to Havergal College, you agree that her picture, voice, likeness, full name  (first and last), grade/year can be used on the school’s websites, external websites managed by  Havergal College, including social media sites (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram,  Pinterest and YouTube) and in school publications (e.g., newsletters, brochures, magazines and  projects), press releases, advertising and marketing materials. Please note: full names will never be  associated with photographs/videos without parental consent.  On external websites managed by Havergal, appropriate and available privacy settings will be  implemented when available (i.e., no name tagging by fans/visitors of these sites). Parents should  discuss appropriate privacy settings for their daughters’ personal social media accounts.  In addition, media are periodically invited to attend Havergal College events and may request  photographs of students to accompany print articles and online or broadcast segments pertaining  to the school. Whenever possible, parents will be notified in advance of the presence of media at  the school. Also, text, images or recordings may appear in electronic form on the Internet, media or  other publications by external groups or organizations outside Havergal’s control. Havergal will not  be held responsible for any harm that may arise from such unauthorized reproduction.  Social Media Policy  This policy requires agreement for employment at Havergal College by employees. It is included  here in order to clarify why faculty and staff are restricted from connecting with parents and  students through the use of social media for reasons outside of their professional relationship.  Havergal College (“Havergal”) is committed to ensuring that social media and electronic  communication is used effectively, purposefully and professionally.  Introduction  “Social Media” describes forms of Internet‑based communication through which users create  online connections to share information, ideas and other content. Examples include, but are not  limited to, sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Flickr, Instagram, YouTube, Picasa and  MySpace.  All materials will remain the exclusive property of Havergal College and Havergal College shall own  all copyright and other proprietary rights therein.
