Privacy Policy

Welcome to SunorSnow.com ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a secure digital workspace. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle data when you visit and use our website.

Unlike traditional platforms, SunorSnow.com operates as a client-side weather tool workspace. We prioritise data sovereignty, applying "Privacy by Design" principles to keep your personal data secure.

1. No Registration or Account Creation

We do not require user sign-up, registration, or account creation to use any of our free weather forecast tools. You can use our full suite of utilities completely anonymously. Because we do not support user profiles, we never request, collect, or store credentials, full names, usernames, or passwords.

2. 100% Local (Client-Side) Weather Forecast

The core function of SunorSnow.com is forecasting weather.

• WeatherAPI.com Data Provider: Live weather data is fetched via WeatherAPI.com. Please review their privacy policy for information on how they process location queries.
• No Server Logs: Your weather queries are not logged or stored by SunorSnow.com.
• Local Storage Only: Your preferred cities and unit settings (°C/°F, km/h/mph) are saved in your browser's local storage, never transmitted to our servers.

3. Cookie Usage and GDPR Compliance

In compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and global privacy standards, we use cookies solely to improve your browsing experience.

• Functional Cookies: To remember your unit preference (°C/°F, km/h/mph) and language selection. Duration: up to 1 year. First-party.
• Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation to collect aggregated, non-personally identifiable traffic statistics. No PII is shared with Google.
• Advertising Cookies: We display ads via Google AdSense. Google uses the DART cookie to serve relevant advertisements. Duration: up to 13 months. You may opt out at adssettings.google.com.

When you first visit SunorSnow.com, a cookie consent banner will appear. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies at any time.

4. Personal Data Collected Voluntarily

The only scenario where we collect personal information is if you explicitly choose to contact us directly via the contact form. In these cases, we only receive your email address and the content of your message. We use this solely to respond to your inquiry and do not sell or transfer this information to third parties.

5. Security Measures

For data in transit (such as loading the app interface), we use standard SSL/HTTPS encryption to protect the connection between your browser and our website.

6. Third-Party Links

Occasionally, we may include links to third-party tools or references on our platform. These third-party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We have no responsibility or liability for their content or activities.

7. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area (EEA), you retain all sovereign rights over your digital footprint under the GDPR, including the right to manage your cookie preferences and object to data tracking. Since we do not store personal data profiles on our servers, there is no personal data to export, modify, or delete upon request.

8. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to update this privacy policy to reflect technical changes to our application. Any adjustments will be posted on this page with an updated modification date.
