FOX Weather: Daily Forecasts

"This feature uses precise location (such as precise GPS coordinates) when allowed by you, as well as other kinds of location, such as coarse location (as may also be provided by your device) and IP address-based location. We also collect location information you have entered in the app and locations associated with event tracking you have created in the Fox Weather Services."

Fox Weather collects precise GPS coordinates, coarse location, IP-based geolocation, and user-entered locations. While precise location requires permission, multiple location signals are gathered and shared with service providers and affiliates.

"We may modify this Privacy Policy at any time by posting an updated policy on the Company Services. Please look at the Effective Date at the top of this Privacy Policy to see when this Privacy Policy was last revised. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will become effective when we post the revised Privacy Policy on the Fox Weather Services."

Fox Weather can change the privacy policy at any time with no requirement for direct user notification — changes take effect simply by being posted, placing the burden on users to check for updates.

"We may share information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy with Fox News Affiliates for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We may share information we collect from and about you as described in this Privacy Policy with business partners to permit them to send you marketing communications consistent with your choices."

Data is shared broadly with Fox News corporate affiliates, business partners for marketing, advertising technology companies, and co-branded service partners, creating a wide network of entities with access to user data.

"In some instances, these entities may return an online identification code that we may store in a first-party cookie, or other similar technology, for our use in online and cross-channel advertising and it may be shared with advertising companies to enable interest-based and targeted advertising. Other parties may also use these technologies, along with activity information they collect, to recognize you across the devices you use, such as a mobile device and a laptop or other computer."

Fox Weather and its advertising partners track users across multiple devices and marketing channels using identification codes, cookies, and device recognition technologies to build unified advertising profiles.

"We will retain your information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or allowed by law. Remember that even after you cancel your account, or if you ask us to delete your personal information, copies of some information from your account may remain viewable in some circumstances. We may also retain backup information related to your account on our servers for some time after cancellation or your request for deletion."

Retention periods are undefined ('necessary' and 'some time'), and data may persist in backups and caches even after account cancellation or explicit deletion requests, with no clear timeline for full removal.

"In order to permit your connection to the Fox Weather Services, our servers receive and record information about your computer, device, and browser, including potentially your IP address, browser type, and other software or hardware information. If you access the Fox Weather Services from a mobile or other device, we may collect a unique device identifier assigned to that device, or other transactional information for that device. In certain circumstances, we also may collect advertising identifiers and geolocation data."

Fox Weather collects extensive device data including unique device identifiers, advertising IDs, browser fingerprint information, and hardware/software details beyond what is needed for a weather app's core functionality.
