Cookie Policy
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They let a site remember information about your visit, such as preferences, and they can also be used to measure usage and show ads. Some similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a comparable way.
What We Store Ourselves
GPA Calculator Pro saves one item in your browser's local storage. It contains no personal information, is never sent to us, and stays until you clear your browser data.
gpa-consent: remembers your choice in the cookie banner (accepted or rejected) so we do not ask again on every visit.
Analytics: Google Analytics 4
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used in aggregate, for example which calculators are used most and which pages need improvement. It sets cookies named _ga and _ga_ followed by an identifier, which by default last up to two years. We do not use this data to identify individual visitors.
Advertising: Mediavine
Ads on this site are managed by Mediavine. Mediavine and its advertising partners may set cookies and use similar technologies to show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure ad performance and, where permitted, show ads based on your interests. Where the law requires consent, Mediavine's consent tool asks for your choice. See the Mediavine Legal and Privacy Center for details.
Advertising: Google AdSense
We have also applied to Google AdSense, which may display ads on this site. Google and its advertising partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. These third-party cookies enable Google to:
- Show ads relevant to your interests based on browsing activity
- Limit how many times you see the same ad
- Measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns
We do not control these third-party cookies directly. They are governed by Google's policies.
Your Choices and Consent
When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept all or Reject all analytics and advertising cookies. Your choice is remembered on your device, and you can change it at any time with Cookie Settings in the footer. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, analytics and advertising storage stays off until you accept. Elsewhere, analytics may run until you choose Reject all.
Everywhere, you can control or delete cookies through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
To opt out of personalized advertising, visit Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info. Blocking cookies does not stop the site working. Your cookie banner choice is saved in local storage, so clear it separately if you want it forgotten.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. We will update the "Last updated" date above when we do.
