Privacy Policy

This page explains, in plain terms, what Final Grade Calculator does and does not do with the information you type into its calculators. The short version: every calculation runs in your own browser, nothing you type into a calculator field is sent to a server, and the only data this site collects is anonymous and does not identify you.

What the calculators do with your input

The final grade calculator, the exam calculator and the grading scale chart all run entirely as JavaScript in your browser. When you type a score, a weight or a target grade into a field, that number is used immediately by code running on your own device to compute a result. It is never transmitted to this site's servers, logged, or stored anywhere outside your browser.

Your entries are saved to your browser's local storage so that the fields are still filled in if you refresh the page or come back later. Local storage is a standard browser feature, similar to a cookie but not sent over the network with every request; it stays on your device until you clear it, either through your browser's settings or by using the Reset button on the calculator itself, which clears that calculator's saved values immediately.

The feedback button

Each calculator has a small "was this tool helpful" feedback control. Clicking a thumbs-up or thumbs-down sends a single anonymous signal to this site's server: which tool you rated, and whether you clicked up or down. No score, grade, weight, or anything else you entered into the calculator is included in that signal, and no cookie, IP address, or device fingerprint is stored alongside it. A flag is saved in your browser's local storage afterward so you are not asked to vote again on a later visit; that flag never leaves your device.

If you use the "Send feedback" link instead, it opens your own email application with a pre-filled address and subject line. Anything you choose to write and send in that email is handled the same way as any other email you send, and is not automated or tracked by this site.

Analytics and advertising

If this site uses a web analytics service, it is a privacy-focused, cookieless option that reports only aggregate figures such as total visits, popular pages, and country-level location: it does not track individuals across visits or across other websites, and does not use cookies to do so. If this site displays advertising, the advertising network may use its own cookies or similar technology, governed by that network's own privacy policy rather than this one; this site does not share your calculator inputs with any advertiser under any circumstances, because those inputs never reach this site's server in the first place.

What this site does not do

This site does not require an account, a sign-up, or a login for any calculator. It does not ask for your name, your school, your email address, or any other personal information to use any tool. It does not sell data, because it does not collect the kind of data that would be sellable in the first place: your grades and scores stay in your browser, not on a server.

No account or sign-up required for any calculator
No score, grade, or weight you enter is ever sent to a server
No cookies are used by the calculators themselves
No personal information is requested to use the site

Children's privacy

This site is a general-audience reference tool and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Since the calculators do not ask for a name, email address, or any other identifying information, and calculator inputs never leave your browser, there is no personal information collected from any user, regardless of age, beyond the anonymous, non-identifying feedback signal described above.

Changes to this policy

If the way this site handles data changes, for example by adding a new feature that requires sending information to a server, this page will be updated to describe it accurately before that feature goes live. Checking back here periodically is the way to stay current, since no separate notification list exists.

Contact

Questions about this policy, or about how any of the tools on this site work, can be sent to the contact address in the feedback link on any calculator page. See the final grade calculator, the exam calculator or the grading scale chart for that link.

Frequently asked questions

Does this site store my grades?

No. Your grades, scores and weights are used only in your own browser to calculate a result, and are saved only in your browser's local storage so the fields stay filled in between visits. They are never sent to a server.

Do I need an account to use the calculators?

No. Every calculator on this site works without signing up, logging in, or providing any personal information.

What does the feedback button send?

Only an anonymous signal indicating which tool you rated and whether your vote was thumbs-up or thumbs-down. It does not include anything you typed into a calculator, and no cookie or device identifier is stored with it.

Does this site use cookies?

The calculators themselves do not use cookies. If an analytics or advertising service is active, it may use its own cookies or similar technology under its own privacy policy, but calculator inputs are never shared with any such service.

How do I clear my saved calculator entries?

Use the Reset button on the calculator itself to clear that tool's saved values immediately, or clear your browser's local storage for this site through your browser's own privacy or site data settings.

Does this site sell or share my data with third parties?

No. There is no personal data collected to sell or share in the first place, since calculator inputs never leave your browser and no account or personal information is requested anywhere on the site.

Is this policy specific to this site, or a generic template?

It describes exactly how this site's own calculators, feedback button and any analytics currently work, based on the actual code running on this domain, not a generic boilerplate policy copied from elsewhere.
