Privacy Policy & Academic Terms

Last updated: September 2026

1. Academic Open Educational Mission

Python4Physics is an open-access educational initiative founded by Dr. Alorika Chatterjee and Dr. Anirban Shaw. The platform is designed strictly for academic instruction, student learning, and research in computational physics and numerical methods.

2. Client-Side Code Execution & Privacy

Python simulations on this portal are executed entirely client-side using Pyodide (WebAssembly) inside your own web browser. Your proprietary code modifications, student assignments, and experimental data are not transmitted to or stored on our servers during execution.

3. Data Collection & Feedback

We do not collect personal data without your consent. If you voluntarily submit our feedback form, we store your name, email, and message solely to respond to inquiries and improve curriculum offerings. We never sell, lease, or monetize user data.

4. Cookies & Local Storage

We utilize minimal localStorage purely to remember your theme preference (Dark Mode / Light Mode). No third-party tracking or behavioral profiling cookies are placed by our application logic.

5. Citation & Academic Attribution

Educators and researchers utilizing algorithms, assignments, or Arduino laboratory modules from this platform in publications or university coursework are requested to cite:

Chatterjee, A., & Shaw, A. (2026). Computational Physics with Python, GNUplot, LaTeX, and Arduino. Python4Physics Portal, https://python4physics.in
