Privacy Policy
Last updated July 19, 2026
This policy explains what information GPAWorld collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
The short version
The GPA calculator runs entirely in your browser. The grades, credit hours, and CGPA you enter are never sent to our servers and are not stored by us. We use privacy-respecting analytics and, where enabled, advertising to keep the site free.
Information we collect
Calculator inputs: processed locally in your browser to show your results. We do not receive or retain them.
Usage analytics: if analytics are enabled, we use Google Analytics to understand which universities and countries are popular so we can prioritise new data. This collects aggregated, non-identifying information such as pages visited, approximate region, device type, and referring site.
Advertising: if ads are enabled, we use Google AdSense to display advertisements.
Cookies and advertising
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 visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.
Your rights (GDPR / CCPA)
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data, and to object to certain processing such as personalised advertising. Because we do not collect personally identifying account data, most requests relate to the third-party cookies described above, which you can control through the opt-out links provided. Visitors in the EEA/UK are shown a consent choice for non-essential cookies before advertising and analytics load.
Children
GPAWorld is intended for university and college students and is not directed at children under 13.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
