University of Texas Police Department (UT Austin)

TX

Confirmed Contributor

The University of Texas at Austin Police Department is the first university police force confirmed as a contributor to the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange. On July 24, 2024, the university executed the standard AVCC XML Addendum (Consortium Sub-Agency) as a member of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center's Accurint Virtual Crime Center deployment, with the Austin Police Department as Consortium Lead Agency. The addendum obligates the department to contribute public safety information to PSDEX, where each submission with respect to an incident or subject becomes a Customer Data Contribution, and grants LexisNexis an irrevocable, worldwide license to use, aggregate, and distribute those records to other PSDEX customers. The agreement package, fully executed August 1, 2024, sets total compensation to LexisNexis at $0: access to the platform is exchanged for the department's data. Campus police records include incident reports in which students appear as victims, witnesses, and complainants. Which specific fields flow in the department's automated feed is not yet in the public record.

The Austin Regional Intelligence Center's 2024 Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement enumerates the full signed roster of about 25 Central Texas partner agencies in the fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access Austin PD procures. The charter does not name LexisNexis; it establishes governance, funding, and a data-sharing framework that authorizes dissemination to federal Information Sharing Environment participants. Obtained via the Austin ISD public records response, which stated the district reaches LexisNexis only through ARIC and that ARIC maintains all access configuration and data. The roster includes three school-district police departments and five university or college police departments.
