Privacy Policy

KnowMyGPA ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at knowmygpa.com. This policy explains what information is collected when you use our calculators and how it is handled. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

The short version

Our calculators run entirely in your browser. The grades, credits, and numbers you type are processed on your device and are never sent to or stored on our servers. We do not require accounts, and we do not ask for your name, email, or any personal details to use the tools.

Information we collect

We do not directly collect personal information. We do, however, use third-party services that automatically collect limited, non-identifying technical data to help us understand traffic and to display ads:

• Usage data — pages visited, approximate location (country/region), device and browser type, and referring site, gathered through analytics.
• Cookies and similar technologies — small files stored by your browser, used by the services below.

One first-party value we store on your device is a small preference for light or dark mode. It stays in your browser's local storage, is not a tracking cookie, and is never transmitted anywhere.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Google Analytics sets cookies and processes usage data on our behalf. We do not collect personally identifiable information through it. You can learn more in Google's Privacy Policy, and you can opt out across all sites using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We display ads through Google AdSense to keep the site free. To do this:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the UK, or another region with similar laws, ad partners will request the consent required by those laws before using cookies for personalised advertising.

How information is used

The limited data collected is used only to operate and improve the site, measure traffic, and display relevant advertising. We do not sell your personal information.

Children's privacy

Our tools are intended for a general student audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country). If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will remove it.

Your choices

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can use the opt-out links above to limit personalised advertising and analytics. Blocking cookies will not affect your ability to use the calculators, since they run locally.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
