1. Introduction & Our Core Privacy Promise
Welcome to the Website SRM CGPA Calculator.
We operate an academic calculator and student information platform designed to help students calculate, understand, and manage common academic metrics such as SGPA, CGPA, percentages, grade points, and attendance.
We take student privacy seriously.
ut creating an account or submitting your academic records to us.
However, like almost every public website, our website may process limited technical information required to operate, secure, analyze, and improve the service. This Privacy Policy explains what that information may include and how we handle it.
Important: Our calculators are designed to process academic inputs on your device. Nevertheless, you should avoid entering sensitive personal information into any website field unless the field specifically requires it.
2. Client-Side Execution Notice
How our calculators work
Our core academic calculators are designed using client side technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
This means that the calculation generally takes place inside your web browser rather than on our server.
For example, when you enter marks and credit hours into an SGPA calculator, the browser receives your input and performs the mathematical calculation locally.
The general process is:
- You open the calculator page.
- The calculator’s HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files load in your browser.
- You enter your academic values.
- JavaScript performs the calculation within your browser.
- The result is displayed on your device.
- The calculator does not intentionally send those academic values to our database for storage.
What this means for your academic information
Our core calculator architecture is designed so that academic inputs are not submitted to our servers as part of the calculation process.
We do not maintain a database containing individual users’:
- Transcripts
- Course histories
- Marks
- Credit hours
- SGPA records
- CGPA records
- Attendance records
- Calculated academic profiles
We also do not sell student academic information to advertisers, data brokers, universities, employers, or other organizations.
Browser memory and local processing
Calculator inputs may temporarily exist in your browser’s memory while the page is open.
Depending on your browser, operating system, extensions, caching behavior, or other local settings, information displayed on a webpage may also remain temporarily in browser memory, page state, cache, or other local browser mechanisms.
Our client-side calculators do not intentionally create a server-side academic record from these inputs.
If a future calculator introduces a feature that requires server-side processing, account storage, cloud synchronization, or another form of persistent data collection, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide appropriate notice before or when that feature is introduced.
3. Information We Collect Automatically
Although we do not collect and store the academic inputs used by our core calculators, our website infrastructure may automatically receive certain technical information when you visit the Website.
This is common for websites and is generally necessary for security, reliability, troubleshooting, and performance monitoring.
Depending on our hosting and service configuration, automatically collected information may include:
- IP address
- Date and time of a request
- Requested webpage or resource
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- Device information
- Referring or previous webpage
- Approximate geographic information derived from an IP address
- HTTP status codes
- Pages requested
- Basic performance or error information
- Other technical information contained in standard web server logs
Server logs
Our web hosting provider may automatically create server logs when your browser requests a page or resource.
These logs can help us:
- Detect security attacks
- Investigate technical errors
- Prevent abuse
- Diagnose website failures
- Maintain website performance
- Monitor server reliability
Server logs are different from calculator data.
For example, a server may record that a browser requested our SGPA Calculator page. This does not mean that the server receives or stores the marks, credit hours, or SGPA values entered into the calculator itself.
IP addresses
An IP address may be included in standard server or security logs.
We may use IP addresses for legitimate operational purposes such as:
- Security monitoring
- Fraud and abuse prevention
- Rate limiting
- Troubleshooting
- Website security
- Legal compliance
We do not use IP addresses to create or sell individual student academic profiles.

C. Advertising cookies
If we introduce display advertising or other advertising services in the future, advertising providers may use cookies, pixels, web beacons, or similar technologies to deliver, measure, personalize, or limit advertisements.
Advertising practices will depend on the providers we use and the jurisdictions in which visitors are located.
We will update this Privacy Policy and, where legally required, provide appropriate consent or preference mechanisms before using non-essential advertising technologies.
D. Web beacons and pixels
Certain third-party services may use small technical elements such as pixels or web beacons to measure page views, advertising performance, or other interactions.
These technologies generally work together with cookies or similar identifiers.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the inquiry.
You may request deletion of your personal information, subject to applicable legal exceptions.
7. Data Protection Rights GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA & CPRA
Depending on where you live and whether the applicable legal requirements apply to our activities, you may have certain privacy rights.
These may include rights under laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, and applicable U.S. privacy laws including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
Not every right applies to every person or in every circumstance.
Your rights may include:
Right to know or access
You may have the right to ask what personal information we process about you and request access to that information.
Right to correction
You may have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information.
Right to deletion
You may have the right to request deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions.

How to submit a privacy request?
You can contact us using the information provided in the Contact Details section below.
Please provide enough information for us to understand and respond to your request.
For security reasons, we may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
We will not normally require you to provide more information than reasonably necessary to verify your request.
8. Children’s Privacy and COPPA
Our Website provides educational information and academic calculation tools that may be useful to students.
However, we do not intentionally request unnecessary personal information from children.
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) applies specific requirements to websites and online services directed to children under 13 in the United States.
Our Website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without legally required parental involvement or consent.
Academic calculators and children
Our client-side calculators are designed to process calculator inputs locally in the browser.
We do not intentionally collect children’s marks, grades, transcripts, attendance records, or other academic calculator inputs for storage on our servers.
Nevertheless, children should not submit names, addresses, phone numbers, school identification numbers, or other personal information through contact forms unless they are permitted to do so by a parent, guardian, school, or applicable law.
Students aged 13–16
Privacy requirements for teenagers may vary depending on the country, state, or other jurisdiction.
Some jurisdictions provide additional privacy protections for minors, including specific requirements concerning targeted advertising, consent, or the processing of personal information.
We aim to apply appropriate privacy safeguards regardless of a visitor’s age.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us improperly, please contact us. We will review the request and take appropriate action where required by applicable law.
9. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information we process.
These measures may include:
- HTTPS encryption
- Secure hosting infrastructure
- Access controls
- Software updates
- Security monitoring
- Spam and abuse prevention
- Limited access to contact information
- Appropriate WordPress security controls
However, no website, internet connection, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should therefore avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive information through public website forms.
Our privacy-first calculator architecture also reduces the need to transmit academic calculator inputs to our servers in the first place.
10. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
Different information may have different retention periods.
For example:
- Calculator inputs: Designed to remain on the user’s device/browser during client-side calculation rather than being stored in our database.
- Server logs: May be retained by our hosting, security, or infrastructure providers according to their operational and security requirements.
- Analytics information: May be retained according to the settings and retention policies of the analytics provider we use.
- Contact form messages: May be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, provide support, maintain records, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations.
When information is no longer reasonably necessary, it may be deleted, anonymized, or otherwise disposed of according to applicable policies and legal requirements.
11. International Data Transfers
Our Website may use service providers located in countries other than your own.
As a result, certain technical information or communication data may be processed internationally.
Where applicable privacy laws require safeguards for international transfers, we aim to use appropriate legal mechanisms and contractual protections.
The exact countries and safeguards may depend on the hosting, analytics, email, advertising, and other service providers active on the Website at a particular time.
12. Links to Other Websites
Our Website may contain links to external websites, including educational resources, universities, software services, affiliate partners, advertisers, or other third-party websites.
Once you leave our Website, the privacy practices of the external website will apply.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of third-party websites.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any external website before submitting personal information.
13. Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
We do not sell student academic calculator inputs.
Where applicable privacy laws give you the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising or similar purposes, you may exercise that right through the privacy controls we provide or by contacting us.
If our future advertising or analytics configuration involves practices legally classified as a “sale,” “sharing,” or similar activity under an applicable privacy law, we will provide legally required disclosures and opt-out mechanisms.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
Changes may be necessary when we:
- Add new calculator tools
- Introduce new website features
- Add or change analytics services
- Introduce advertising
- Add affiliate programs

16. Our Privacy-First Approach in Simple Terms
If you remember only a few things from this Privacy Policy, remember these:
- Our core academic calculators run in your browser.
- Your marks, credit hours, SGPA, CGPA, attendance figures, and similar calculator inputs are not intentionally transmitted to our database for storage.
- We do not sell student academic calculator data.
- Basic technical information may still be processed by normal website infrastructure, such as hosting and security systems.
- Analytics, cookies, advertising, or similar technologies may be used where enabled and legally permitted.
- Information you voluntarily send through our contact form or email may be retained so we can respond to you.
