As a good-natured person, I actually read the long disclaimer of Google Analytics©, which said I should have a privacy policy. As such, I have a privacy policy below. However, if you are reading this far, you probably should just email me at jabbott@mit.edu. My role in having Google Analytics© is purely to monitor if this website seems to be used. I offer different resources that I believe can be helpful to many educators, and I want these resources to be easily accessible on the web.
