This website, mryoungmusic.com, is run by Andrew Young (Mr. Young's Music Room), an elementary music teacher. This page explains what information the site collects and how it's used. Questions? Email andrew.young.maine@gmail.com.
This site uses the Meta Pixel, a tool from Meta (the company behind Facebook and Instagram). It uses cookies and similar technology to record visits to the site and some actions on it, such as pressing Play or saving a sheet in the Iconic Notation Maker, or clicking through to the shop. Meta may use this to show you ads for Mr. Young's Music Room on Facebook and Instagram and to measure how well those ads work. The site doesn't send your name or email to Meta.

The notation tool runs in your browser. Songs you write or import, and your settings, are saved only on your own device, in your browser's storage. They aren't uploaded anywhere unless you choose to share a song.
If you use the "Share a song" form, it sends your name, your email address, any note you add, and the song itself (notes, lyrics, chords, and key). This is used to review your song and, if it's added to the library, to credit you by the name you entered. Your email is used to contact you about your submission. You'll only get other emails if you check the box asking for updates. Submissions are stored with Netlify, the company that hosts this site.
The site is hosted by Netlify. Like most websites, its servers may keep basic technical logs, such as your IP address and browser type, to keep the site running and secure. Pages also load fonts from Google Fonts and a code library from Cloudflare's cdnjs, which means your browser connects to those services.
Many links go to Teachers Pay Teachers, Facebook, YouTube, and Pinterest. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which apply once you're on them.
This site is made for teachers. Students can use the notation tool and games in class, and none of them need an account or ask for personal information. The share form is meant for adults only. If you believe a child has sent personal information through the site, email the address above and it will be deleted.
To have your song submission or email address deleted, or to stop getting emails, write to andrew.young.maine@gmail.com.
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date at the top.
