List Policies Reminder

[ten grrl]

Hi everyone,

As we are in the midst of the busy CCCC-forwarding season, I want to share a few policies that I follow as I forward messages to the list. First, I want to remind everyone that messages must be accessible. If the message is an image only, I usually won't forward it. Please provide a transcript for all images. Because of the high volume of messages forwarded, I frequently do not have time to create a transcript for you.

These guidelines are intended to protect your privacy and keep your events secure:

1. No phone numbers (personal or cell) are included in messages. Institutional numbers tied to an HR announcement are sometimes included.
   
   
2. No direct Zoom links are allowed, including links to personal Zoom rooms. If your link will take me directly to a Zoom room, I will not forward the message in order to avoid Zoom bombers. Links to Zoom registration forms are fine.
   

In order to streamline the posts, I omit some extraneous information. My goal is to keep the messages short and on point. These guidelines apply to that goal:

1. Confidentiality statements are deleted (the statements that say this information if for the recipient only, etc.)
   
   
2. Extra sig information is deleted. Your quotations of various great writers and speakers are nice, but they are extra, irrelevant text.
   
   
3. No appointment sign-up links are forwarded. Those are typically meant for local readers on the sender's campus.

Have a great CCCC experience everyone!
