The website

• The website uses no cookies and no visitor analytics.
• When you tap the map or search for a place, the coordinates or the search text are sent to the weather service Open-Meteo to fetch weather figures. Open-Meteo also receives your IP address, as every web service does.
• The website is hosted by [name of web host], and the snow images are fetched from GitHub Pages. Both process IP addresses for operation and security.
• [If advertising is switched on: which ad provider is used, that it sets cookies, and how consent is given and withdrawn.]

The app

• The app has no sign-in and does not collect your name, email address or other contact details.
• Places you save are stored only on your phone.
• Snow notifications are created on your phone. The app does not use a notification service that can identify you.
• To show the weather, the coordinates of the place you are looking at are sent to Open-Meteo. The map comes from Apple.
• The short AI text is made by sending the weather figures and the coordinates of the place to a language model. [Name of the provider and how long the data is kept.]
• The app does not ask for your location.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete information about you, and you can complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet). [Contact address.]
