You're allowed to give students a signup link to your own mailing list where they can do so voluntarily, but only in the final "bonus lecture" of your course.


Some instructors also host their own course materials and communities on their own websites, and direct students there as part of the setup for the course. If students find your mailing list signup there, that's OK. But you're not allowed to require students to sign up to your own mailing list as part of the course.
