    You can disable the photograph mode using the following path:

    However, provided you find something amiss with your photograph, you should have a new one taken since disabling the photograph mode will prevent you from seeing the other IS users' photographs.
    What you should realize, though, is that even if you disable the mode, your photograph will still be displayed to the Office for Studies staff and teachers teaching the courses you have enrolled in for identification purposes.

  • 8.When and where can I have myself photographed?
    You can have yourself photographed every Tuesday and Thursday. For further information, go to https://it.muni.cz/sluzby/fotografovani-osob.

    Yes, you can have a watermark of your personal identification number printed on your photograph. Provided you wish to enable the watermark mode, do so in the section the path to which is as follows:

    The Information System People Settings Chování aplikace select photograph mode

    Nevertheless, the likelihood of your photograph being misused is comparatively low since the System administrators constantly monitor the numbers of photographs displayed to individual users. Provided one of them has a large number of photographs displayed, his/her access to them is denied.

  • 11.Are there any rules governing the use of photographs displayed by the Information System?
    The IS users can, after logging into the System, browse other users' photographs. These should be utilized merely for identification purposes inside the System. Any other use of these, their distribution outside the System, and their batch downloading are strictly prohibited.

    The Information System hosts tools that keep track of the numbers of photographs displayed to individual users. Provided it detects a massive download or display of photographs by someone - an indicator of their possible misuse, it will disable the culprit's access to them.

    Violating the aforementioned rules may lead to blocking the violator's access to the IS photographs and make him/her subject to disciplinary proceedings.

  • 12.I would like to make the record of my study results accessible via my Personal Page. What am I supposed to do?
    Under each of your programmes of studies you can find a link to a form enabling you to activate this option and specify which users your study results should be displayed to. Once you change the settings, remember to save them.
