Information We Collect

Location Data

To provide sun visibility predictions, we collect location information in the following ways:

• Browser Geolocation: With your permission, we access your device's geolocation to determine your latitude and longitude coordinates. This data is used solely to provide accurate sun visibility predictions for your location.
• IP-Based Location: If you decline browser geolocation, we may use your IP address to estimate your approximate location. This provides less precise location data but still allows us to offer sun predictions.
• Manual Input: You may choose to manually enter your location coordinates.

Important: We do not store your location data on our servers. Location information is processed in real-time to fetch weather data and is not retained after your session ends.
