Your privacy rights and data protection

Last updated: August 27, 2026

Our privacy commitment

Calculator inputs stay in your browser. We use anonymous analytics and advertising cookies to improve and support the site, and you can control those preferences through your browser or Google privacy settings.

1. Information We Collect

Anonymous technical data only - no personally identifiable information

We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number. We do not require registration or login to use our website.

We automatically collect limited, anonymous technical data when you visit our website, including browser type and version, pages visited on our website and time spent on them, approximate geographic location (country/city level only, not precise), device type and screen resolution, referring URL (the page that directed you to our site), and IP address (anonymized).

This data is collected automatically via Google Analytics and is used only to understand how visitors use our website and to improve our service.

2. How We Use the Information

Anonymous data used for website improvement and relevant advertising

The anonymous usage data we collect is used to understand which pages are most popular, improve performance, accuracy, and usability, monitor for technical errors and fix bugs, analyze traffic trends to improve the overall user experience, and serve relevant advertisements to support free access.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

3. Google Analytics

Web analytics with IP anonymization for privacy protection

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), to collect anonymous information about how visitors use our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect and report on website interactions.

We have enabled IP Anonymization in Google Analytics. This means your IP address is truncated by Google before it is stored, so it cannot be used to identify you personally.

Google may process this data in accordance with its own privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

4. Cookies and Advertising

Analytics and advertising cookies for relevant ads and site improvement

Our website uses cookies, small text files stored on your device, to enable analytics and to serve relevant advertisements. Specifically:

Analytics cookies: used by Google Analytics to collect anonymous traffic data as described in Section 3.

Advertising cookies: used by Google AdSense and its advertising partners to serve ads that may be relevant to your interests based on your visits to our website and other websites on the internet.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.

5. Google AdSense

Advertisement service with IAB compliance and data protection

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google AdSense is an advertising service provided by Google LLC. Google AdSense may use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to collect non-personally identifiable information such as your browser type and version, pages of our website that you visit, time and date of your visit, and information about advertisements you have clicked or scrolled over.

This information is used to provide advertisements about products and services that may be of interest to you. It does not include your name, address, email address, or telephone number.

Google AdSense is compliant with the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework. For more information on how Google uses data collected through its advertising services, visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads

6. Browser Inputs

All calculations processed locally - no data transmitted to servers

All inputs on Grade Average Calculator are processed entirely within your browser. Any numbers or values you enter are not transmitted to our servers, not stored, and not shared with anyone. Your inputs remain completely private.

7. Children's Privacy

Safe for all ages with no personal data collection from children

Our website is available to the general public, including students and educational users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in certain jurisdictions). Since we do not collect personal information from any users, there is no risk of us retaining children's personal data.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately and we will take prompt action to address it.

8. GDPR – Rights of Users in the European Union

European users' rights under GDPR with clear data processing basis

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access the data we hold about you, the right to request correction or deletion of your data, the right to restrict or object to processing of your data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time.

Since we collect no personally identifiable information, most of these rights are satisfied by default. For data processed by Google Analytics or Google AdSense, you may exercise your rights directly with Google via: https://myaccount.google.com/privacy

Our legal basis for processing anonymous analytics data is our legitimate interest in improving our website. For advertising cookies, our legal basis is your consent, which you provide through our cookie consent banner.

9. CCPA – Rights of California Residents

California residents' privacy rights under CCPA compliance

If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected about you, the right to request deletion of your personal information, the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights.

We do not sell personal information. We do not collect personally identifiable information from visitors. For any questions or requests, please contact us using the details in Section 13.

11. Data Security

Technical and organizational measures protect anonymous data

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the limited anonymous data we collect from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. Since we collect no personal data, the risk to individual users is minimal. Anonymous analytics data is secured by Google's own infrastructure and subject to Google's security standards.
