Your weather.
Not your data.

🗂What we use, and why

🔔Alerts & Live Activities

Rain and severe weather alerts, and Live Activities that update while the app is closed, are sent by a small server we run on Cloudflare, with a database hosted by Turso. When you turn these features on, the app sends it:

• an Apple push token: a random identifier from Apple that lets us deliver notifications to your device. It doesn't identify you.
• a random app ID created when Weather360 is installed, so your device doesn't get duplicate alerts if Apple gives it a new push token. It's deleted with the app (a reinstall gets a new one), doesn't identify you, isn't shared with anyone, and isn't used for advertising.
• the place you get alerts for: its name, its coordinates rounded to about 1 km, its time zone, and whether it follows your device's location
• whether you have Premium, and when it ends, so Premium alerts go only to subscribers
• your alert preferences, such as which alerts are on and how early to warn you about rain
• for Live Activities, a Live Activity push token and display settings such as units

The server uses this only to check the forecast for your place and send the alerts you asked for, through Apple's Push Notification service. It keeps a short record of which alerts were sent, so you don't get the same one twice. When you move with device location on, the stored place is updated to your current place; earlier places aren't kept. While alerts are on, the app checks in about twice a day; if the server hasn't heard from your device for a day, it sends a silent notification you never see, which your device answers, so alerts stop for devices that no longer have the app. The server keeps no usage statistics or history about your device, and nothing it holds is linked to who you are.

📺Ads

Weather360 for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch shows no ads and includes no advertising software.

On Android, to help cover running costs, the free version may occasionally show ads from Google AdMob.

When ads appear there, Google's software may collect information such as your IP address, device type, operating system, app version and how you interact with ads. It uses this to show and measure ads and to prevent fraud. Learn more in how Google uses information from apps that use its services.

⭐️ Premium never shows ads.

💳Purchases

Subscriptions are sold and managed by Apple through the App Store. Apple tells the app whether Premium is active; we never receive your name, Apple ID or payment details. Manage or cancel your subscription in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions.

📱What stays on your device

• Forecasts are cached on your device, and shared with your widgets, so the app opens quickly.
• Plain-words summaries are written on your device by Apple Intelligence where available. Nothing is sent to us or to anyone else to write them.
• Settings, saved places and activities stay on your device.
• We don't include any analytics or tracking tools. If you choose to share crash reports with developers in iOS settings, Apple may share anonymous diagnostics with us.

🤖On Android

Weather360 for Android follows the same principles, with a few differences:

• Alerts are worked out on your phone. Rain and severe weather notifications are scheduled on your device, so the Android app doesn't send anything to our alert server.
• Location comes from Google Play services, with your permission.
• Maps and place search use OpenStreetMap, which receives the area shown or the place you search for.
• Plain-words summaries are written on your device by Google's on-device AI where available.
• Ads, when shown, come from Google AdMob, which may use your device's advertising ID. You can reset or delete it in your phone's Settings → Google → Ads.
• Purchases are handled by Google Play. Manage or cancel in Google Play → Payments & subscriptions. We never see your payment details.

🙅What we don't do

• Sell, rent or trade your information
• Build advertising profiles or track you across other companies' apps and websites
• Keep a history of where you've been
• Require an account, or collect your name, email, contacts or photos

🗑Keeping & deleting data

Data on your device is removed when you delete the app. Alert data on our server is kept only while you use alerts, Live Activities or rain-aware widgets. It's deleted when you turn them all off, and automatically after 90 days without your device checking in (for example, after you delete the app). Push tokens stop working when you turn off notifications or delete the app, and we don't use them for anything else. Our server's request logs, used only to fix problems, are kept for 7 days.

To have your alert data deleted from our server sooner, email us from the support page and include the place you get alerts for.

🎛Your choices & rights

• Location: choose Never, While Using or Always, or turn off Precise Location, in Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Weather360. You can also use a searched place instead of your location.
• Notifications & Live Activities: turn them off in the app, or in Settings → Notifications → Weather360.
• Ads: on Android, if the free version is showing ads, Premium removes them.
• Access & deletion: wherever you live, including under GDPR in Europe and the CCPA in California, you can ask what we hold about your device and ask us to delete it. We'll respond within 30 days.
