Pollen & Allergy Forecast — Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-06-20
This app is built to respect your privacy. We do not sell your personal data, and
your photos, media, and precise content stay on your device. This policy explains
the limited data the app uses.
INFORMATION THE APP USES
- your approximate or precise location (used only to fetch the local pollen and allergy forecast for your area from Open-Meteo). The app does not use a camera or microphone.
- an optional symptom diary that you may choose to keep. Any symptom notes you enter are stored on your device only and are never uploaded to us.
- anonymous diagnostics and crash reports (via Google Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics) to keep the app stable.
- an advertising identifier and related data used by Google AdMob to show ads. On iOS, the app asks for your permission via App Tracking Transparency (ATT) before any tracking, and uses Google's UMP consent flow to honor GDPR/EEA choices. You can decline tracking and the app keeps working with non-personalized ads.
HOW IT IS USED
Pollen forecasts are requested from Open-Meteo using your location. Your symptom diary
and settings are stored on your device only. We use the data above only to provide the
app's features, to keep the app stable, and (with your consent) to show ads. We do not
build advertising profiles ourselves and we do not upload your photos, videos, or files
to our servers.
ADVERTISING IDENTIFIER & OPT-OUT
Google AdMob may use an advertising identifier to deliver and measure ads. You can
limit or reset this identifier in your device settings (iOS: Settings > Privacy &
Security > Tracking and Apple Advertising; Android: Settings > Google > Ads), and you
can decline tracking to receive non-personalized ads.
DATA RETENTION & YOUR CONTROL
Settings and content you create are stored on your device and are removed when you
delete the app. You can revoke camera, photo, location, or tracking permissions at
any time in the iOS Settings app; the app will continue to work with reduced features.
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
The app may use: Google Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics), Google AdMob (ads), and
the public data sources noted above. Their handling of data is governed by their own
privacy policies:
- Google Firebase: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
- Google AdMob: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
CHILDREN
This app is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal
information from children.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by the "Last
updated" date above.
