Tomáš Kodet 6.1 54 === Possible use ===
ser0018 2.1 55
Tomáš Kodet 6.1 56 When using the Google Workspace services, keep in mind that the data is not actually stored on the university's technical resources. Google stores user data in its data centers located around the world.
Denisa Wernerová 2.2 57
Tomáš Kodet 6.1 58 While Google Workspace is intended for internal use, there is an option to use external accounts. You can share your work calendar from the domain g.vsb.cz to a private Google account. The same rule can be used when sharing a project document from VSB-TUO to the account of a colleague from another institution involved in Google Workspace.
ser0018 2.1 59
Tomáš Kodet 6.1 60 Google lets you easily switch between different accounts in your browser.

Tomáš Kodet 6.1 63 === Sharing your calendar with a private account ===
Denisa Wernerová 2.2 64
Tomáš Kodet 6.1 65 If you want to use your personal account primarily, you can simply add a calendar from your work account as another calendar. However, you will not have scheduling features that need access rights to your colleagues' calendars. You will need to switch to a work account for these activities.
ser0018 2.1 66
Tomáš Kodet 6.1 67 You can only link to a calendar. For services like Google Drive, colleagues need to share everything directly to a personal account, or access through a Google Workspace account.
