Information We Collect

Location information. When you use current-location features, LocalSky Weather may access your device or browser location with your permission. We use latitude and longitude, city or ZIP searches, and saved forecast locations to provide weather, alerts, radar, pollen, air quality, and related outdoor-planning features. LocalSky Weather does not use location for advertising.

Saved places and preferences. LocalSky Weather may store saved locations, selected weather mode, launch configuration, and feature preferences on your device or browser so the app can remember your settings.

Weather requests and service logs. When the app requests a forecast, our servers and hosting providers may receive the requested location, IP address, device or browser information, request time, and related technical logs. We use this information to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the service.

Notifications. If you enable notifications, LocalSky Weather may use your selected or saved locations to provide weather-related reminders or alerts. You can disable notifications in your device settings.

Diagnostics and support. If you choose to export, copy, share, or email a debug report or contact us for support, we may receive the information you decide to send, such as app diagnostics, approximate forecast location, error details, and your contact information.

Purchases. If LocalSky Plus or another paid upgrade is offered, purchases are handled by Google Play or the applicable app store. We do not receive your full payment card details. We may receive purchase or entitlement status needed to unlock paid features.

How We Use Information

We use information to provide and improve LocalSky Weather, including to:

• Show forecasts, alerts, radar, pollen, air quality, and outdoor weather tools for selected locations.
• Remember saved places and app preferences.
• Send weather-related notifications you enable.
• Operate, protect, debug, and improve the app, website, API, and infrastructure.
• Respond to support requests.
• Provide and manage paid feature access, if paid upgrades are available.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers and partners only as needed to run LocalSky Weather, such as cloud hosting, content delivery, weather data, geocoding, radar, air quality, pollen, app store billing, and support services. These providers may process information according to their own policies.

LocalSky Weather may include affiliate links, including Amazon Associate links. If you open an affiliate link, the destination site may receive information about your visit and may use cookies or similar technologies under its own privacy policy.

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer.

Retention and Deletion

Saved places and preferences stored on your device or browser remain there until you delete them, clear app or browser data, or uninstall the app. Server logs are kept only as long as reasonably needed for security, reliability, debugging, and legal compliance, then deleted or de-identified. Support messages are kept as long as needed to respond and maintain business records.

To request deletion of information you have provided directly to us, contact support@localskyweather.com.

Your Choices

• You can allow or deny location permission in your device or browser settings.
• You can search by city or ZIP instead of using current location.
• You can delete saved locations in the app.
• You can disable notifications in your device settings.
• You can manage subscriptions and purchases through Google Play or the applicable app store.

Children

LocalSky Weather is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us and we will take appropriate action.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. No internet or mobile service can guarantee absolute security.

Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the date above. Material changes will be posted on this page or communicated through the app when appropriate.
