Each campus service has different terms of eligibility, and is restricted to various campus affiliation types depending on what was agreed to with the vendor. For example, certain software like Adobe may only be available to current staff, faculty, and registered students, while a service like Google is also available for alumni.
If you receive the error message "Service access denied due to missing privileges." this means your current campus affiliation type is not eligible for the software you are attempting to access.
If you believe your campus affiliation type is coded incorrectly in the system, please contact your HR representative or Cal Student Central to resolve the matter.
