Privacy & Data

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you visit GradePilot and use the weighted grade calculator.

Updated November 4, 2026

Last updated: November 4, 2026

1. Information you enter into the calculator

The current GradePilot calculator runs in your browser. It does not require an account, and the calculator code in this website package does not automatically send the scores or course details you enter to a GradePilot server. Your entries are not automatically saved by the calculator. You may choose to export a report or print a summary yourself.

2. Technical information

Like most websites, the server and hosting provider may process technical request information to deliver and protect the website. Depending on the hosting configuration, this may include an IP address, browser and device details, requested page, date and time of the request, and security or error logs. The hosting provider's own privacy information explains its processing and retention practices.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

The current calculator code does not require an account or use cookies to save your grade entries. Your browser or hosting environment may use essential technical mechanisms to deliver the site. If analytics, advertising, embedded content, or other third-party tools are added, those services may use cookies or similar technologies. This policy should be read together with the consent choices shown on the website where applicable.

4. Advertising and Google AdSense

If Google AdSense or another advertising service is enabled on GradePilot, Google and its third-party advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, or similar technologies to deliver, measure, limit, and personalize advertisements. These technologies may use information about visits to this website and other websites, subject to the visitor's location, consent choices, and the providers' policies.

Learn how Google uses information on partner sites in Google's partner-site privacy information. You can review or change Google's advertising personalization settings at Google Ads Settings. You can also learn about industry advertising choices at YourAdChoices.

5. Analytics and third-party services

The current website package does not include Google Analytics or an account-registration system. If analytics, advertising, embedded services, or other third-party tools are enabled later, this policy must describe the services actually used and the information they process. Third-party providers process information under their own privacy policies.

6. Your privacy choices

Where consent is required, non-essential cookies and advertising technologies should only be used in accordance with the choices presented through the website's consent mechanism. Visitors can also manage cookies through their browser settings, although blocking some technologies may affect website functionality.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, publishers using Google advertising services must configure an appropriate Google-certified consent management platform and pass valid consent signals where required. See Google's publisher consent requirements.

7. Data security and retention

GradePilot does not operate user accounts or automatically store calculator entries in this version. Technical logs, if retained by the hosting provider, are subject to that provider's security and retention practices. No method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

8. Children's privacy

GradePilot is a general educational calculator and does not ask visitors to provide student IDs, passwords, or identifiable academic records. Do not submit sensitive personal or education information through the calculator.

9. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when website features, hosting arrangements, analytics, advertising, or applicable requirements change. The latest revision date will be shown at the top of this page.

10. Contact

For website and privacy enquiries, use the contact information made available by the GradePilot website operator on the Contact page. You can return to the Weighted Grade Calculator homepage at any time.
