Photo boards

At each section, a photo board is located displaying photos of staff members.

The photo boards are updated monthly, and your photo will be displayed on the board, if you update your Pure profile within the first 2 months of your employment. If not, an anonymous photo with your name will be displayed. 

Photos are made for:
All employees, both paid and unpaid, who are employed/affiliated with the department for over 6 months. Our student worker receives a list of new employees every month, and the picture will be displayed within the first 2 months, depending on when the employee updates their Pure profile.

What photo is used?
Because of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we are only allowed to use the photos from our employees’ Pure profile. If the employee wishes to have another photo, they must fill out a statement of consent and send it and their photo to our student worker.
If the employee updates their photo on Pure within the first month, this photo will be displayed on the photo boards. If their Pure profile does not have a photo, an anonymous photo will be displayed the following month.
If you update or change your Pure-photo and wish to have it changed on the photo boards, you must send an email to our student worker, who will change it during the next photo board update.

Master students/other affiliations:
Master students and other employees/affiliations who do not fall under “paid or unpaid employees who are affiliated with the department for over 6 months” must put up their own photo. Because of GDPR we can not create a photo for them, but if they wish to have a photo, they are welcome to add it to the boards themselves.

Statement of consent:
The statement of consent can be found on this page. If you wish to have your photo and name on the photo board or have any amendments, please write an email to our student worker. Attach your photo and signed statement of consent. If we use your Pure profile picture, you do not need to sign the statement of consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time. Enquiries must be made in writing to bio@au.dk.

AU’s Photography Unit provides staff photos. Please book an appointment yourself or ask our student worker to make an appointment with a photographer from the unit.
