Privacy
1. Information We Collect
We collect the location you search for (such as a city name or coordinates) to provide weather forecasts for that location. If you allow browser location access, we use your approximate coordinates only to show local conditions, and do not store this data or link it to your identity. Basic technical information (such as device and browser type) may be processed to keep the service secure and reliable.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to provide weather forecasts and related content, operate and improve our service, and communicate with you if you contact us. We do not sell your personal information.
3. Cookies & Analytics
We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use our site, such as which pages are viewed and how the site performs. Analytics cookies are only set after you provide consent through our cookie banner or Privacy Choices page, and you can withdraw consent at any time. Essential preferences (like theme and language) are stored locally in your browser and do not require consent.
4. Third-Party Services
These providers only receive the information needed to perform their function and process it under their own privacy policies. WeatherPerch does not have user accounts or sign-in — there is nothing to authenticate and no billing to process. We may introduce advertising in the future; if we do, it will be subject to the same consent requirements described in this policy and disclosed here in advance.
5. Data Retention
We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy.
6. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to opt out of certain data uses, including under laws such as the GDPR and CCPA/CPRA. You can manage cookie and analytics consent at any time through our Privacy Choices page, and we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.
