Personal data is processed in accordance with the GDPR. It is only processed after the user has given consent for this by accepting this privacy policy. The only exception is the case where processing of data is legally allowed without the user given consent. This can for example be the case when the processing is a legitimate interest of the data controller and this interest is not overridden by rights, interests or freedom of the user.
Any user related data is deleted shortly after the purpose for storage does not apply anymore. Data is also deleted in case a legal obligated storage period exceeds except when further storage is necessary by another legal obligation or for the performance of a contract in which the user is a participant.

The app requires some permissions to work properly.
A core functionality of the app is to request data via the internet. This requires the corresponding permission for internet connectivity.
The app offers the possibility to purchase a premium version of the app with additional functionalities. For this, it requires the corresponding permission for in-app purchases.
The user is able to create a support ticket via the app. In order to be notified via push notifications in case of a response to the ticket, the user can grant the corresponding permission for push notifications. If the permission is not granted, no notification is sent to the user's device.
In order to determine the location automatically (see below) the user needs to grant the app the permission to request the device’s location. A request appears before the first usage of this feature.
The current location is stored on the device to be able to send it to the app server for retrieving new alerts when necessary.
The last entered locations are stored on the device to enable quick switching for the user.
The processing of the data described above is a legitimate interest of the data controller and this interest is not overridden by the rights, interests or freedoms of the user.
Storing data on the device is required so it is available permanently (e.g. after restarting the device). This is mandatory for the app to work.
All processed data is stored as long as the app is installed or the user manually removes the data via the device's storage settings.
Any processed data stored on the device can be removed anytime via the device's storage settings or by uninstalling the app.
The processing of the data described above is a legitimate interest of the data controller and this interest is not overridden by the rights, interests or freedoms of the user.
Forwarding above mentioned data to the “Meteo!” Server is necessary to provide the basic functionalities of the app like fetching weather alerts or sending push notifications.
The collected data is stored as long as the app is installed. No later than 30 days after uninstallation, all the above data will be deleted from the server.
The processing of above mentioned data is mandatory to provide the basic functionalities of the app. There is no possibility for objection despite deinstallation of the app which results in the removal of any stored data related to the user.
The app provides weather alerts for a given location.
The requests are send to external services (see below). The providers of these services store basic information like IP address or device info for each request.
Location data can either be determined manually by the user or automatically via the device’s location functions.
The Google Geocoding API is used to determine location details (i.e. zip code, name/coordinates of the city or county, current altitude) for the given location input (see below). Fur further information about Google Geocoding & Privacy please refer to: https://developers.google.com/maps/terms
The automatic determination of the location uses the device’s location functionalities (i.e. GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth or the mobile network). The user has to grant permission for this first.
Alternatively the user can determine the location manually by entering a city or county name. The device’s location functions are not used in this case. Thus, the user can fully determine the processed location data.
The processed data is sent to the “Meteo!” Server. The locations name, altitude as well as FCM token and language are stored for future requests or Push notifications.
Processing of data is a legitimate interest of the data controller and this interest is not overridden by rights, interests or freedom of the user.
Location determination and forwarding above mentioned data to the “Meteo!” Server is necessary to provide the basic functionalities of the app like fetching weather alerts or sending push notifications.
After at most 30 days after deinstallation all data is deleted from the server. Further information on the storage time can be found on respective privacy pages.
The processing of above mentioned data is mandatory to provide the basic functionalities of the app. The user can decide how the location data is determined. However, there is no possibility for objection despite deinstallation of the app which results in the removal of any stored data related to the user.
The app provides an interactive rain radar.
To display the rain radar, a request with the location currently set in the app is sent to external services (see below). The providers of these services store basic information such as IP address or device information for each request.
This app uses the rain radar of the German Weather Service (DWD for short). The app connects to DWD servers for this purpose. Further information about the DWD and data protection can be found here: https://maps.dwd.de/datenschutz.html
This app uses map services provided by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF). The app connects to servers operated by the OSMF in the United Kingdom and other countries. For more information about the OSMF's processing of user data, please see: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy
The processing of the data is a legitimate interest of the data controller and this interest is not overridden by the rights, interests or freedom of the user.
The forwarding of the above-mentioned data to the DWD and OSMF servers is necessary for the operation of the app and the provision of the rain radar.
Further information on the storage duration can be found on the respective data protection pages.
The processing of the above data is mandatory. There is therefore no option to object.
