Just the Weather • Effective date: 2026-01-07

Plain-English Summary

  • We don’t require accounts and we don’t ask for your name, phone number, or address.

  • We don’t sell personal information.

Who We Are

“Just the Weather” is a Roku channel that provides a clean, readable forecast. If you have questions about this policy, contact us at info@gregramsey.me.

Information We Collect

1) Location Information (to show you weather)

The app uses a location (for example, a city or ZIP code) to fetch and display local forecasts. Location may be provided by you (e.g., selecting a place in the app) and may be processed through geocoding services to convert it into coordinates.

We use this information only to deliver forecasts and related weather details for the location you choose.

2) Basic Technical Data

Like most internet-connected apps, requests to weather services may include basic technical information such as IP address, device/network details, and timestamps. This information may be processed by the third-party services we rely on (listed below) to provide responses and maintain reliability and security.

3) What We Don’t Collect

  • No account registration information (no usernames/passwords)
  • No precise GPS tracking outside the app’s weather lookup function
  • No contact list access
  • No microphone/camera access

How We Use Information

  • To fetch and display weather forecasts and related information for your selected location
  • To troubleshoot issues and keep the app working reliably

Third-Party Services (Data Sources)

The app relies on the following services to provide weather and related information:

  • weather.gov (National Weather Service) — forecast data
  • Open-Meteo — geocoding (converting a location name into coordinates)
  • sunrise-sunset.org — sunrise/sunset times

These services may receive your request details (such as the selected location and IP address) in order to respond. Their handling of information is governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as needed to provide weather results through the third-party services listed above, or if required by law.

Data Retention

The app does not require you to create an account, and we do not intentionally store personal information. Third-party services may keep limited logs for operational and security purposes under their own policies.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the information used by the app. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided personal information, contact us and we will address it.

International Use

The app currently supports US locations only.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Effective date” above. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
