ETHICS AND COMPLIANCE

The Office of Ethics and Compliance is committed to a culture of compliance through transparency, integrity, and reporting. We provide independent oversight of Emory's ethics and compliance programs to ensure the university is compliant with federal, state, and local laws and ensures your safety, values, and trust as you work to fulfill our university's mission... The Privacy Office is responsible for the development and oversight of privacy initiatives, including raising awareness of laws and regulations, creating policies and procedures, designing and presenting training programs, monitoring and enforcing policies and laws/regulations, conducting investigations, and providing guidance on issues as they arise. Our current programs include US laws, such as HIPAA and FERPA, state laws on genetic information and HIV AIDS, and a multitude of new state and international data protection privacy/laws and regulations.
