We may use third-party analytics services to monitor and analyze app usage. These services may collect information about your device and how you use the app. The information collected helps us improve the app and provide better service.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy. When you delete the app, we will delete or anonymize your personal data unless we are required to retain it for legal purposes.

Location Services

The app requires access to your location to provide weather information. You can control location permissions through your device settings at any time. Disabling location services will prevent the app from providing location-based weather forecasts.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from your jurisdiction. We take steps to ensure your data receives adequate protection.
