Privacy Policy
GPAce (“we,” “us”) is a mobile app that helps you track college GPA and optionally sync grades from your school’s Canvas LMS. This policy explains what information is involved and how it is handled.
Information on your device
Course names, grades, credits, Canvas course data you sync, and related settings are stored locally on your device. We do not require you to create a GPAce account.
Canvas access
If you use Canvas sync, you sign in on your school’s Canvas page. GPAce stores that sign-in on your device and uses it to request your courses and grades. We do not ask for your Canvas password.
Completing Canvas sign-in goes through GPAce’s login service. That service talks to Canvas for you and sends the sign-in back to your phone. We use this to make the connection work, not to build student profiles for advertising.
Purchases
App purchases (including GPAce Pro) are processed by Apple or Google. We use RevenueCat to verify entitlements. Apple, Google, and RevenueCat process purchase identifiers according to their own privacy policies. We do not receive your full payment card details.
Notifications
If you enable grade notifications, the app uses the system notification service on your device to alert you about newly detected grade changes after a sync. You can disable notifications in system Settings or in the app.
Analytics and crash data
We may receive limited technical information needed to operate and improve the app (for example, crash reports or basic usage metrics if enabled through Apple, Google, or our tooling). We do not sell your personal information.
Children
GPAce is intended for college students and general audiences. It is not directed at children under 13. Do not use the app if you are under 13.
Your choices
- Delete courses or disconnect Canvas in the app to remove local academic data.
- Disconnect Canvas in the app anytime. You can also remove GPAce from Canvas Account, then Settings.
- Uninstall the app to remove local GPAce data from that device.
