IT Professionals,
The eLearning Services team would like to notify you of two upcoming changes for Box at IU [1].
In order to simplify its language as well as the process to find regional-specific privacy policies and file privacy-related inquiries, Box has made several changes to their online Privacy Notice [2] which will be effective on December 2, 2019. A banner notifying users of these updates will be displayed in the Box web application beginning on November 21, 2019. You can read even more about these changes here [3] or here [4].
Additionally, folder uploads [5] on IE11 are no longer officially supported, and functionality will be removed on December 27. Users who wish to continue using this functionality should use a supported browser [6].
