Link Policy

External Links Disclaimer

Any links to websites outside the Texas State University System (TSUS) website are provided as a convenience to visitors. TSUS includes links to external websites that it determines to be consistent with its mission and goals. However, TSUS has no control over the content of external websites and does not necessarily endorse the information, products, or services contained on those sites.

If you discover an error or wish to comment on the content of an external website, please contact the webmaster of the website directly.

Permitted Uses of TSUS Website

Advance permission to link to the TSUS website is not required for simple links to the TSUS homepage. You may also link to TSUS subages; however, TSUS reserves the right to modify or remove subpages at any time without notice.

Prohibited Uses of TSUS Website

The TSUS website and all TSUS-created materials contained on it are protected by copyright and may not be reproduced without written permission from the TSUS Vice Chancellor and General Counsel. TSUS and its component institutions' trade names, service names, and trademarks are likewise protected and may not be used without written consent from the Chancellor (for System names and marks) or the appropriate component institution president (for individual institution names and marks).

Accordingly:

  • Do not frame TSUS webpages or present TSUS content in a manner that suggests it is your own.
  • Do not link directly to individual graphics, images, or tables, particularly in a way that places the burden of content delivery on TSUS servers, as this may be considered a misuse of state resources.
  • Any link to the TSUS website must be a direct, full link that allows the user's browser to navigate freely to the TSUS site. Use of browser navigation controls, such as the back button, should return the user to the original website.

Reciprocal Links

The TSUS website does not participate in reciprocal link agreements. While TSUS may provide links to external websites that support its mission and goals, the inclusion of a link does not obligate the external website to link back to TSUS, though such links are welcome.
