Usability

Interface User-friendliness/complexity of the tool´s interface

Simple, slightly old-fashioned

Time efficiency Time needed for mastering the „how-to“ of the tool and a production of a task

Interface language(s) The number of languages in which the tool is currently available/adaptable to

English only

Respect for privacy Does the tool require registration? Who can see my data? Can I remain anonymous?

High. There is no privacy section on Hot Potatoes’ site, but yes on Half-baked’s, which is the software company that developed it. Half-Baked claims that it does not collect user data beyond what is necessary. It does not collect user data for marketing or business purposes. Its privacy code mentions security measures and user consent as a legal basis. Users can withdraw their consent and thus modify or delete their data on Hot Potatoes. Half-Baked does not mention compliance with the GDPR. See more here.

Saving work for future use Possiblity to save your or others´ work for reuse/reproduction

Yes

Tailorability (If so, how?) Possibility of the tool to be used for a range of different activities (e.g. to what extent you can organize a project assignment with a central activity based on this tool)

High. Different kinds of quizzes and exercises can be created through six apps, making Hot Potatoes quite tailorable.
