Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how WeatherCompare processes information when you search for a location, compare weather forecasts, and interact with our website.

WeatherCompare is built to help users compare weather conditions, hourly outlooks, air quality, wind, and related forecast data across multiple providers for the same city.

Information We Process

When you use WeatherCompare, we may process search inputs such as city, region, country, coordinates, selected weather providers, and interaction signals needed to return weather comparison results.

We may also process technical data such as browser type, device type, referring pages, approximate IP-based location, performance logs, and error events to operate, secure, and improve the service.

How We Use Information

We use information to retrieve weather data, compare responses from multiple providers, maintain service availability, debug failures, prevent abuse, measure product quality, and improve search relevance and result presentation.

We may use aggregated and de-identified usage patterns to understand which cities, providers, or weather views are most useful to users.

Third-Party Services and Weather Providers

WeatherCompare relies on third-party weather data providers, infrastructure vendors, and analytics or monitoring tools to deliver the product. Search requests and related technical metadata may be transmitted to those services only as necessary to fulfill your request and keep the site reliable.

Each third-party provider processes information under its own policies and technical controls. We recommend reviewing the privacy terms of any provider you interact with through our service.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to remember interface preferences, retain selected platforms or locations on the same device, understand usage trends, and improve performance.

You can control certain browser storage settings through your browser or device preferences, though disabling them may affect parts of the site experience.

Data Retention

We retain operational logs, analytics events, and service diagnostics only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain security, investigate incidents, and comply with legal obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the data type, system purpose, and whether the data is required for debugging, fraud prevention, or regulatory compliance.

Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data with service providers, hosting partners, analytics vendors, and weather providers when required to operate WeatherCompare.

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights, to investigate abuse, or to respond to valid legal requests.

Children's Privacy

WeatherCompare is not designed for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the service, please contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights related to access, deletion, correction, restriction, or objection regarding personal information. You may also choose not to use certain features that rely on stored preferences or browser-based data.

If you submit a rights request, we may need to verify the request and evaluate what information is technically available within our systems.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as WeatherCompare evolves, including when we add new providers, analytics capabilities, or product features. Material updates will be reflected on this page with revised content.
