As the guardians entrusted with this personal data, HMIS end-users have a moral and a legal obligation to ensure that the data they collect is being collected, accessed, and used appropriately. It is also the responsibility of each employee, volunteer, and any other person with access to the HMIS to ensure that client data is only used to the ends to which it was collected, the ends that have been made explicit to clients and are consistent with the mission of the HMIS, to use the HMIS to advance the provision of quality services for homeless person, improve data collection, and promote more responsive policies to end homelessness in San Diego County. Proper user training, adherence to the HMIS Policies and Procedures, and a clear understanding of client confidentiality and HMIS user responsibility are vital to achieving these goals. Client Confidentiality A Multiparty Authorization form must be signed by each client whose data is to be shared within the HMIS. Client authorization may be revoked by that client at any time through a written notice. No client may be denied services for failure to provide authorization for HMIS data collection. Clients have a right to inspect, copy and request changes in their HMIS records. HMIS end-users may not share HMIS client data with individuals or agencies that have not entered into an HMIS Agency Participation Agreement or obtained written permission from that client. Excluding information shared in the client profile, HMIS users may not share client data with any agency that is not specified without obtaining a written permission from the client. HMIS end-users will maintain HMIS data in such a way as to protect against revealing the identity of clients to unauthorized agencies, individuals or entities. Personal User Identification (User ID) and Passwords must be kept secure and are not to be shared. Confidential information obtained from the HMIS is to remain confidential, even if the individual’s relationship with the participating agency changes or concludes. Misrepresentation of the client data by entering known or inaccurate information is prohibited. Any information that is not given by the client should be marked unknown. Discriminatory comments based on race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, handicap, age, sex and sexual orientation are not permitted in the HMIS. Profanity and offensive language are not permitted in the HMIS. The HMIS is to be used for business purposes only.

The HMIS will not be used to defraud the Federal, State, or local government or an individual entity or to conduct any illegal activity. Any HMIS end-user found to be in violation of the HMIS Policies and Procedures, or the points of client confidentiality in this User Agreement, will result in immediate suspension of access to the HMIS and may jeopardize your employment status with the participating agency.
