Welcome to First Grade Calculator (“we,” “our,” “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains what we (and our service partners) collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Quick Summary

  • We don’t require account sign-ups and we don’t ask for personal details to use our calculators.
  • Calculator inputs (e.g., points, totals, grades) are processed to show a result; we do not use them to identify you.
  • We may use cookies for essential site features, analytics, and advertising (if enabled).
  • You can control cookies through our consent banner (where available) and your browser settings.

What We Collect

1) Information you provide

  • Calculator inputs (e.g., number of questions, correct answers, weights). These are used solely to compute a result on the page.
  • Contact messages (if you email us). We receive your email address and message content.

We do not intentionally collect names, passwords, IDs, payment info, or sensitive categories.

2) Information collected automatically

When you visit the site, standard web logs may capture:

  • Device & usage data: browser type/version, language, operating system, pages viewed, time on page, referring/exit pages.
  • IP address & general location (at a regional/city level), primarily for security, fraud-prevention, abuse mitigation, and aggregate analytics.
  • Cookies & similar technologies used by us and our partners (see “Cookies” and “Third-Party Services” below).

We use this aggregated information to improve performance, troubleshoot issues, and understand what features are helpful.

Cookies & Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files saved by your browser. We use:

  • Essential cookies to keep the site functioning (e.g., load balancing, security).
  • Preference cookies (optional) to remember simple choices (e.g., theme).
  • Analytics cookies (optional) to understand site usage.
  • Advertising cookies (optional) to deliver and measure ads (if ads are enabled).

You can:

  • Manage preferences via our cookie/consent banner (where shown).
  • Disable or clear cookies in your browser settings (site features may be limited if you block essential cookies).

How We Use Information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our calculators and site features.
  • Monitor performance, fix bugs, and prevent abuse/spam.
  • Understand usage patterns (in aggregate) to make better tools.
  • Where applicable, show non-intrusive ads and measure their performance.
  • Respond to your messages and support requests.

We do not sell personal information. If local laws treat certain analytics/ads data as “personal information,” see your regional rights below.

Third-Party Services (Examples)

We may use reputable providers to run the site. These partners may set their own cookies and receive limited data under their privacy policies.

  • Analytics (e.g., Google Analytics or similar) — page views, events, aggregated usage.
  • Advertising/Monetization (e.g., Google AdSense and/or Ezoic) — to display ads, prevent fraud, and measure performance.
  • Security/Performance (e.g., CDN, cache, firewall) — to keep the site fast and secure.
  • Email (when you contact us) — to receive and respond to messages.

Each provider processes data under its own terms. Where required, we request consent before setting non-essential cookies.

Data Retention

  • Calculator inputs: used transiently to show results and are not stored in a way that identifies you.
  • Analytics/ads logs: retained by providers for the periods they specify (typically months, per their policies).
  • Emails you send us: kept as long as needed to respond and maintain records, then deleted when no longer necessary.

Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures (HTTPS, access controls, minimal data collection) to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we work to keep risk low and respond to issues quickly.

Children’s Privacy

Our tools are education-focused but not directed to children under 13 as a service that collects personal data. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights over your information:

GDPR / UK GDPR (EEA/UK)

You may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or objection to processing where applicable. You may also withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time via the consent banner.

CCPA / CPRA (California)

We do not sell personal information as defined by CCPA/CPRA. You may request access, correction, or deletion of personal information. You can also opt out of cross-context behavioral advertising by rejecting advertising cookies in the consent banner.

Other Regions

We honor applicable local laws. Contact us and we’ll help with your request.

International Transfers

Our providers may process data on servers located outside your country. We use providers that implement appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses) where required.

Third-Party Links

Our site may link to other websites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Review their policies before sharing information.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our features or laws. The “Last updated” date will change. Significant changes will be highlighted on this page or via the consent banner
