No, we do not grab users’ Blackboard passwords. We do store their usernames as a part of the verification process, but we do not get their passwords. The main pieces of information that we use are the user’s Blackboard email address and the unique ID that gets assigned to each user within Blackboard. Because a user is logged in to Blackboard, we assume that they have already been authenticated.
