This weather app is deliberately designed to be data minimal: no account, no sign up, no cookies, no tracking and no analytics services. The operator runs no backend of its own; all settings remain in the browser.

The app stores the following data exclusively locally in the browser: saved favorite locations, the last displayed location, the last loaded weather report (for the offline view), the chosen language, the chosen color scheme, and a marker for the home screen install hint (time of visit and dismissal, so the hint does not reappear repeatedly).

This storage is strictly necessary for the service requested by the user (§ 25 Abs. 2 Nr. 2 TTDSG, the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act). No transmission to the operator or third parties takes place. The data can be removed at any time via the browser function for deleting site data.

Weather and the location search are retrieved via the programming interface of Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com). For technical reasons, the device's IP address is transmitted to Open-Meteo during retrieval, together with the coordinates or the search term of the requested location.

The legal basis is Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO (GDPR; legitimate interest in providing the requested weather information). The weather data is licensed under CC BY 4.0.

To display pollen levels, the app additionally calls the Open-Meteo Air Quality API at air-quality-api.open-meteo.com. For technical reasons, the device's IP address is transmitted to this service in order to deliver the data for the selected location. According to its own statements, Open-Meteo does not collect personal data and uses neither tracking nor cookies. The legal basis here is also Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO (GDPR), the legitimate interest in providing the requested weather and environmental data.

The "Use my location" feature is optional. The browser location request starts only after an active click on the button and additional approval in the browser dialog (consent under Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a DSGVO/GDPR and § 25 Abs. 1 TTDSG).

The coordinates are transmitted to Open-Meteo exclusively for the immediate weather and pollen retrieval and are not stored permanently. Consent can be revoked at any time via the browser settings; the app works fully without location access via the city search.

To function as an installable app (PWA), a service worker stores static files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, font, icons) in the browser cache. No personal data beyond a normal page visit is processed in the course of this.

This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 650 California St, San Francisco, CA 94108, USA. When the site is accessed, Vercel processes technically necessary connection data (IP address, time, user agent, requested URL) to deliver and secure the service (Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. f DSGVO/GDPR).

A data processing agreement under Art. 28 DSGVO (GDPR) is in place with Vercel. Transfers to the USA are safeguarded by EU standard contractual clauses and Vercel's certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics, advertising or tracking services. A cookie banner is therefore not required.

Towards the controller, you have the right of access (Art. 15 DSGVO/GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 DSGVO/GDPR).

Consent once given (for example for the location request) can be revoked at any time with effect for the future.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular with the Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA), Promenade 18, 91522 Ansbach, Germany, www.lda.bayern.de.
