How to get SafeZoneÌýÌý

Just download the app and register with your UCL email address:

The SafeZone app is not intended to replaceÌýany of our existing services such as dialling '222' from a UCL landline or 020 7679 2222 from all other devices, but should complement these.

When support is needed, the SafeZone app will enable the security team to respond faster and will give the team a more accurate location on campus without requiring the user to provide these through a phone call.ÌýÌýÌý

It’s not mandatory to use SafeZone, but the app is free to download and can use by anyone at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈËho wants to do so.ÌýÌý

SafeZone and your privacyÌýÌý

You choose when to share your data - the system is privacy-protected and won’t share your location unless you call SecurityÌýor use the check-in function. This also means the app will not drain your phone battery.Ìý
