IT and Computing Meetings & Seminars

Yes, if speaker has given permission. Please remember that Q&As cannot be recorded. Prior to the talk you will need to display this notice. If a person asks a question during a talk, then the licence would cover the recording. If you want the recording on WIN's Recorded Archive, please email admin@win.ox.ac.uk. The above consent form gives us permissions to recorded anything in the past year, so you don't need to fill out every time they give a recorded talk. You can also record a group discussion using the participant consent form on this page, where each individual must give their consent. If a person removes their consent for recording, please email admin@win.ox.ac.uk so that we can remove their recording from their archive. If you want to make your recording open to the public, you will need to fill out a separate form and email admin@win.ox.ac.uk. WIN has a Vimeo channel.
