However, because the university has no control over whether students and employees forward their email to another service provider, the campus only allows the sending of Level 1鈥�3 data听through campus email, including to other University of Colorado campuses.

Large amounts of Level 2 or 3 student data (i.e., greater than 24 students) and data reports containing Level 2 or higher data must be sent via the听听service or other protected means, and not via email.
