Scientific and Technological and Innovation Institutions, with the help of Technology
Transfer Offices, have the challenge of implementing their Innovation Policies in the
academic environment, as well as approving Intellectual Property management
policies, developing legal instruments with the objective of regulating norms internal
processes to facilitate the transfer of technology. In this context, the Secrecy and
Confidentiality Policy stands out, a legal instrument necessary to guide technology
transfer relations, adapting the academic environment to the regulatory context. In this
way, the research sought to present a formal document with the objective of protecting
the data, information and sensitive knowledge generated by the University and the
confidential information agreed in RD&I partnership legal instruments. The research,
from the perspective of nature and approach, is classified as applied and qualitative,
and in relation to its objectives, it is classified as exploratory. Thus, bibliographic and
documental research were the technical procedures used in the study, to gather
information in books, scientific articles, legal norms and also on Internet sites on the
approach of this topic in Federal Education Institutions, in order to identify the process
and flow of procedures related to the treatment of secrecy and confidentiality of
information. The freedom to socialize knowledge was one of the most discussed
factors in the scope of research, since the IFES has as one of its principles the
universality of knowledge, so the norm could not harm academic publications. The
interaction between Ifes and public and private companies is also highlighted in the
research, in the relationships of partnerships aimed at research, development and
innovation activities. Therefore, the treatment of sensitive information, data and
examination from research needs to be treated with caution in the academic
environment. PSC accepted the confidentiality procedure in course completion work
committw, the confidentiality procedure for RD&I projects, the procedure for strategic
institutional partnerships and the confidentiality procedure for outsourced workers,
interns, monitors, scholarship holders and volunteers participating in RD&I. Therefore,
the research presented how the construction process of the Ufopa PSC took place,
commenting on each phase, from the discussion to its formalization. He explained the
positive impacts of the policy for Ufopa, since the information, data and sensitive
knowledge protected will have a basis published on the institution's website, as well
as, it will bring greater speed, greater legal security to the relations between Ufopa and its partners, attraction of partnerships, dissemination of information about laws, the
Federal Constitution, resolutions dealing with the matter and others, in addition to
reducing the fears of the actors involved in the process, and also preparing Ufopa to
implement the Legal Framework for Science, Technology and Innovation. The policy
will also, as well as other documents, contribute to the implementation of an Intellectual
Property culture at Ufopa.
