This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use GoWeather: Travel Planner (the “App”).

The App provides weather conditions, forecasts, radar information, widgets, and travel-planning features. Certain features may require an optional paid subscription.

Depending on your device settings and the features you use, location information may include:

Approximate location;

Precise location;

City, region, latitude, or longitude;

Locations that you manually search for or select.

Location information is used to identify the relevant geographic area and retrieve weather information for that location.

You may disable location access at any time through your device settings. If location access is disabled, you may still be able to view weather information by manually searching for or selecting a location.

We do not use location information to continuously track your movements, create advertising profiles, or sell your location data.

If the App experiences an error, crash, or other technical issue, limited diagnostic information may be collected, including:

Crash logs;

Error reports;

App performance information;

To provide weather information, the App may process:

Your current location;

A location you manually search for or select;

The location for which you request weather information;

Technical parameters necessary to process the request.

This information may be transmitted to a third-party weather data provider solely to retrieve weather conditions, forecasts, radar data, and related weather information.

1.5 Subscription and Purchase Information

The App may offer optional auto-renewable subscriptions, including weekly or yearly plans.

Subscriptions and payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not directly collect or store your full payment card details, bank account information, or Apple Account password.

Apple processes payment and billing information according to Apple’s own terms and privacy practices.

The App does not intentionally collect:

Full payment card numbers;

Bank account credentials;

Photos or videos;

Health information;

Advertising identifiers for personalized advertising.

Unless an account or contact feature is introduced and clearly disclosed, the App does not require users to create a separate GoWeather account.

3. Location Permission

You may review or change location access through:

Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > GoWeather: Travel Planner

Depending on the options provided by iOS, you may select:

Never;

Ask Next Time or When I Share;

While Using the App;

Precise Location on or off.

Disabling location access may affect automatic local weather features but will not affect features that do not require location access.

4. Subscriptions and Apple Payments

All subscription purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store.

We do not control Apple’s payment authorization, billing schedule, tax calculation, refund decisions, or payment-method management.

You can manage or cancel subscriptions through your Apple Account subscription settings.

Deleting the App does not automatically cancel an active subscription.

Where available, the App may provide a “Restore Purchases” function. This function uses transaction information provided by Apple to confirm whether your Apple Account has an eligible active or previous purchase.

For payment, billing, refund, or Apple Account issues, you may need to contact Apple Support directly.

5. Third-Party Weather Services

The App relies on one or more third-party weather data providers to deliver weather conditions, forecasts, radar information, and related data.

When you request weather information, your location, selected city, and limited technical request information may be transmitted to the relevant weather provider.

Third-party providers process information according to their own privacy policies and security practices.

6. Third-Party Technical Service Providers

We may use third-party service providers for functions such as:

Weather data delivery;

Cloud infrastructure;

App hosting;

Subscription validation;

Crash analysis;

Performance monitoring;

Security and technical support.

These providers may process limited information only as necessary to provide their services.

We do not authorize service providers to use information obtained through the App for unrelated advertising, independent marketing, or user profiling.

7. Information Sharing

We may share limited information in the following circumstances:

7.1 With Service Providers

Information may be shared with weather data providers, infrastructure providers, diagnostic providers, transaction-validation providers, or other technical partners necessary to operate the App.

7.2 With Apple

Subscription purchases, renewals, cancellations, refunds, trials, billing retries, and purchase restoration are processed or supported through Apple’s App Store systems.

7.3 For Legal Reasons

We may disclose information where reasonably necessary to:

Comply with applicable law or a valid legal request;

Protect users, the public, or the App’s legitimate rights and security;

Investigate fraud, misuse, or security incidents;

Enforce applicable terms and policies.

7.4 Transfer of the App or Related Assets

If ownership, operation, or related assets of the App are transferred, information associated with the App may be included in that transfer, subject to applicable law and privacy protections.

8. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the App, administer subscriptions, resolve technical or billing-related issues, maintain security, and comply with legal obligations.

Location information used for an individual weather request is generally processed only as necessary to return the requested weather data.

Diagnostic and technical information may be retained for a limited period for troubleshooting, security analysis, and performance improvement.

Transaction records may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to validate purchases, restore access, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and comply with accounting or legal requirements.

When information is no longer required, we will delete or anonymize it unless a longer retention period is required by law.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no internet transmission, mobile application, payment system, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. International Data Processing

Depending on your location and the location of our service providers, information may be processed in countries or regions other than the country in which you live.

Where required by applicable law, we will take reasonable measures to ensure that cross-border data processing complies with relevant data protection requirements.

11. Children’s Privacy

The App is not specifically directed to children under the age required to consent to data processing in their country or region.

We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information for advertising, profiling, or account registration.

Purchases made by minors are subject to Apple Account settings, parental controls, family-sharing settings, and applicable law.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us.

12. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your country or region, you may have the right to:

Request access to personal information associated with you;

Request correction of inaccurate information;

Request deletion of eligible information;

Object to or restrict certain processing activities;

Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;

Submit a complaint to a competent data protection authority.

Because the App may not require a separate account, we may need sufficient information to determine whether any data can reasonably be associated with your request.

You may withdraw location permission through your device settings.

13. California Privacy Notice

Where applicable under California law, California residents may have the right to request information about the categories of personal information collected, disclosed, or retained and to request access, correction, or deletion.
