What is OneDrive?

OneDrive is the Microsoft cloud service that stores all your personal files. It lets you store and protect your files, share them with others, and get to them from anywhere on all your devices. Your university OneDrive is managed by the University and lets you share and collaborate on work documents with co-workers.

When you leave the university the files in your OneDrive will be purged to protect your personal data. If you are actively involved in research, this may not meet your funder's data management requirements.

Research students should check with their supervisors about whether their data needs to be stored securely in a shared folder.
