Effective date: July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Skyla Weather App ("Skyla," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you use our mobile application, notifications, website, support channels, and related services, collectively the "Service."
By using Skyla, you acknowledge that we process information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Service.
1. Information We Collect
Location Information
Skyla may use approximate location information to provide local weather conditions, forecasts, and Smart Alerts. You may be able to provide location information through your device permissions, by searching for a place, or by saving a location in the app.
If you enable Smart Alerts, Skyla may process and sync approximate alert location, display name, and timezone information so weather checks and alert delivery work for the selected place.
Notification and Smart Alert Information
If Smart Alerts or push notifications are enabled, Skyla may process notification settings, activity preferences, quiet hours, device model, app version, build number, Apple Push Notification service token, and membership status to support alert scheduling and delivery.
App Preferences and Usage Settings
Skyla may store information you choose or configure in the app, such as saved locations, preferred weather units, weather scene choices, alert settings, quiet hours, and activity profiles.
Calendar and Reminders Information
Calendar and Reminders access is optional. If enabled, Skyla uses calendar and reminder information on your device to suggest weather-aware prompts for plans like commutes, walks, outdoor meals, travel, errands, or activities. Skyla does not use Calendar or Reminders information for advertising or cross-app tracking.
Purchase and Subscription Information
Purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple. Skyla may receive or process subscription status, entitlement status, transaction identifiers, renewal state, and related purchase metadata needed to unlock paid features, verify access, prevent fraud, and provide customer support.
Support Communications
If you contact us, we may collect the information you provide, such as your email address, message content, screenshots, diagnostic details, and other information needed to respond to your request.
2. How We Use Information
We use information for the following purposes:
- To provide weather conditions, forecasts, alerts, and app features.
- To deliver Smart Alerts and other notifications you enable.
- To save your settings, preferences, and selected locations.
- To verify subscription status and provide membership features.
- To personalize weather-aware suggestions based on settings you choose.
- To troubleshoot, maintain, secure, and improve the Service.
- To respond to support requests and communicate with you.
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
3. Weather Data Providers
Skyla uses weather data from Open-Meteo and may use other weather, mapping, infrastructure, or diagnostics providers in the future. Weather requests may include a forecast location so the provider can return local conditions and forecasts. These providers process information according to their own policies and technical practices.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information. We may share information only in limited circumstances, including:
- Service providers. We may share information with vendors that help us operate the Service, such as hosting, notification delivery, subscription verification, weather data, analytics, diagnostics, or customer support providers.
- Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information if we believe it is necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights and safety, prevent misuse, or enforce our terms.
- Business transfers. If Skyla is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
- With your direction or consent. We may share information when you ask us to or when you give us permission.
5. Data Retention
We keep information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, maintain notification delivery, support membership access, troubleshoot issues, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it is processed.
6. Your Choices and Controls
You can control many privacy-related settings directly through your device or the Skyla app, including:
- Changing or disabling location permissions.
- Turning notifications or Smart Alerts on or off.
- Opening Privacy & Data in Skyla to permanently delete the guest cloud account and synced Smart Alert data created for this installation.
- Managing saved locations and app preferences.
- Changing Calendar or Reminders permissions.
- Managing subscriptions through your Apple account settings.
7. Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or portability of personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may also have the right to appeal a decision we make about your request.
To make a privacy request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your request before responding. We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights available under applicable law.
8. Children
Skyla is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
9. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. International Processing
The Service may be operated from the United States or other countries. If you use Skyla from outside the country where our systems or service providers are located, your information may be processed in countries that may have different data protection laws than your location.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as by updating the effective date, posting a notice, or providing notice through the app where appropriate. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you acknowledge the revised Privacy Policy.
