Privacy Policy

1. Our Privacy Commitment

SRM Helper is a static website built for students. There are no user accounts and no login systems. Tool input (GPA calculator, quick notes, attendance calculator) runs entirely in your browser and is never sent to any server.

Browsing the site does not require you to give us any personal data. Two things ask for an email address: the optional update list in the footer, where you enter your own address, and buying the paid crash revision pack, where we receive it from the payment provider. Section 5 explains exactly what each involves.

2. Analytics

We use Plausible Analytics — a privacy-friendly, open-source analytics tool — on every page to understand aggregate visitor behaviour and improve the site. Plausible Analytics:

• Does not use cookies — no cookie consent banner is needed
• Does not collect personal data — no IP addresses are stored (they are anonymised before processing)
• Does not track across sites — no user profiles, no cross-device tracking, no fingerprinting
• Is hosted at click.pageview.click (a Plausible-compatible endpoint)

The homepage also loads Google Analytics 4 (property G-TN9XEZBDD5) to check how the landing page performs in search. Google Analytics is a third-party service operated by Google, it may set cookies or read device identifiers on that page, and Google processes the resulting data under its own privacy policy. It is not loaded on any other page of this site, and we do not use it for advertising or cross-site profiling. You can block it with any content blocker, browser tracking protection, or Google's own opt-out add-on; the site works normally without it.

The data we can see in either tool is aggregate: page views, top pages, referral sources, countries and device types. We do not combine it with purchase data to identify individuals.

3. Cookies

SRM Helper sets no first-party cookies — not for preferences, not for logins, not for advertising. Plausible Analytics sets none. Google Analytics, loaded only on the homepage, is the one third-party script that may set cookies; blocking it changes nothing about how the site or the tools work.

4. Third-Party Services

• Plausible Analytics (click.pageview.click) — cookie-free aggregate analytics on every page
• Google Analytics 4 (Google) — homepage only, described in section 2
• Stripe — payment processing for purchases, described in section 5
• ZeptoMail (Zoho) — delivery of the purchase email described in section 5
• Update list service (newsletter-api.charlie0simmon.workers.dev) — stores the email you enter in the footer update list and sends the update messages described in section 5

We do not embed advertisements, tracking pixels or social widgets.

5. Purchases, Delivery Email and Update List

Buying the crash revision pack is optional; the free pages, tools and calculators stay free. When you buy:

• Payment is processed by Stripe through our payment hub at pay.yito.ai. Card details are entered on the provider's hosted page and are never sent to, stored on, or visible to our servers.
• We receive the email address you give at checkout, an order reference, and the order status (amount, currency, paid or not). We use them to send the pack, to answer support questions, and to handle refunds.
• We send one transactional email with a link to your pack, delivered through ZeptoMail. The link re-checks your order with the payment provider, so it only opens for the order it was issued for. Buying the pack does not add you to the update list and we do not send marketing email.
• Retention: the order reference and payment status stay with the payment provider under their records policy. Your delivery email sits in our mail account so we can resend a pack or handle a refund; ask us any time and we will delete it.
• Refunds: contact us and we will refund through the same payment provider.

The footer update list is separate from a purchase. Every page carries an optional form where you can enter an email address to be told when a new subject page, course code or study tool goes live. You type the address yourself and tick a consent box, and the form sends it to our update list service (section 4), which stores it and sends those update messages. You can unsubscribe from any update email, or email [email protected] and we will delete the address. Joining the update list is not needed to buy the pack or to use anything on the site.

6. Data Sharing

We never sell personal data and we do not share it for advertising. The only parties that handle data are the processors named above, and only for the purposes described: Stripe and our payment hub for the payment, ZeptoMail for the delivery email, our update list service for the footer update list, Plausible and Google for analytics. Everything else on this site collects nothing to share.

7. Children's Privacy

This website is intended for university students aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13, and we do not knowingly sell the paid pack to anyone under 18.

8. Data Security

SRM Helper is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and served over HTTPS. Tools on this site (calculators, notes scratchpad, number converter) run locally in your browser using JavaScript, and no input is transmitted off-device. Card numbers never reach our servers, so there is no card data for us to lose. The personal data we hold is limited to what section 5 describes: the delivery email address for a purchase, and the email address you enter in the footer update list.

9. Your Rights

Under data protection laws including GDPR and CCPA you can ask to access, correct, delete or port your personal data. If you never bought the pack and never joined the update list, we hold nothing about you. If you joined the update list, we hold the email address you entered, and unsubscribing or asking us removes it. If you bought the pack, email us and we will act on the order records we hold: deleting your delivery email address does not cancel a refund or accounting obligation tied to the payment provider's own records.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Material changes will be announced via a notice on the homepage.
