Privacy & Data Protection
Learn how GPA-X secures your academic records with zero server collection policies.
1. Local-First Storage Policy
GPA-X is built with a strict **Local-First** design pattern. All information entered on the student dashboard—such as your name, course selection, annual family income, SC/ST/OBC category, and semester GPAs—is saved locally in your own browser using the industry-standard \`localStorage\` API.
2. Zero Server Logs & Databases
Our application operates entirely database-free. We do not host any remote databases, user registration scripts, or tracking backends. Because of this, **it is technically impossible** for the GPA-X team or any third party to collect, view, or sell your academic scorecard data.
3. Dynamic URL Sharing
When you use the "Share Profile" feature, the system compiles your profile data and encodes it into a standard Base64 string appended to the URL hash (e.g. \`#share=...\`). This data is parsed purely client-side by whoever opens the link. It is never routed to or stored on our servers.
4. Third-Party Analytics
We run lightweight, privacy-focused Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to monitor application load speeds and routing performance. This tracking collects zero personal identifiers or academic marks details.
