Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 28, 2024
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
At Weather4Fly, your privacy is not just important to us—it's fundamental to how we built our app. We believe that you should have complete control over your personal information, which is why we designed Weather4Fly to work without collecting any of it.
What Information We DO NOT Collect
- Personal Information: We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or any other personally identifiable information
- Location Data: Your location is processed entirely on your device and never transmitted to our servers
- Usage Analytics: We do not track how you use the app, which features you use, or when you use them
- Device Information: We do not collect device identifiers, IP addresses, or technical specifications
- Browsing History: We do not track your browsing patterns or app usage history
How Weather4Fly Works Without Data Collection
Weather4Fly is designed with "local-first" architecture, meaning all data processing happens directly on your device:
- Weather Data: Your device requests weather information directly from Apple's WeatherKit service using your location
- GPS Information: All GPS and location processing happens locally on your device
- Settings & Preferences: Your app settings are stored locally on your device and never synchronized to external servers
- Drone Profiles: Your selected drone configurations are stored only on your device
Third-Party Services
Weather4Fly uses the following third-party services to provide weather data:
Apple WeatherKit
We use Apple's WeatherKit service to provide weather data. When you request weather information, your device communicates directly with Apple's servers using your approximate location. This communication is handled by Apple's privacy-focused infrastructure and is subject to Apple's Privacy Policy.
NOAA Space Weather
For K-index (geomagnetic activity) data, your device may access publicly available data from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. This access does not involve sharing any personal information.
In-App Purchases
If you choose to purchase premium features, the transaction is processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment information, purchase history, or any financial data. Apple handles all payment processing according to their privacy policy.
Contact Information
If you contact us through our website's contact form or email, we will only use your contact information to respond to your inquiry. We do not store this information long-term or use it for marketing purposes.
Children's Privacy
Since Weather4Fly does not collect any personal information, it is safe for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, because we don't collect personal information from anyone.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Changes are effective immediately upon posting.
International Users
Weather4Fly's privacy-first approach means that regardless of where you are located, we do not collect your personal data. The app works the same way worldwide, processing all information locally on your device.
