"We may share your personal information with business partners to provide products or services you request. We may also share your personal information with business partners with whom we jointly provide products or services and for administrative purposes. Third parties who collect personal data about you to display personalized advertising."

The appendix lists seven third-party services including Google AdMob, Facebook, Pangle, Mintergral, and Vungle — all advertising SDKs that collect data directly from the user's device for ad targeting purposes.

"We will store the personal information we collect as described in this Privacy Policy for as long as you use our Services, or as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the information was collected, to provide our Services, to pursue legitimate business purposes, and to comply with applicable laws. Generally, we retain your personal data indefinitely."

The policy explicitly states indefinite retention of personal data with no clear deletion timeline, even after the stated purposes have been fulfilled.

"Some of our applications may collect the real-time location of your device if you opt-in, in which case you may opt-out of further allowing us to access such location data by managing your location preferences in the application and/or on your device."

A weather app collecting real-time location data is expected, but combined with sharing data with ad networks like Facebook, Pangle, and Vungle, this location data may be shared with third parties for advertising purposes.

"The following are the categories of personal information we collect: Information about your device and device capabilities; Information about your device's operating system; Information about your browser; Information about how you use the Services; Your activities on the Services; Mobile or internet operator/provider; Browser type; Browser identifier."

The app collects extensive device information including device capabilities, operating system details, browser identifiers, and mobile operator data — much of which goes beyond what a weather app needs for core functionality.

"We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices and services. We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time in our sole discretion. Where required by applicable law, if we make material changes to the way we collect, access, or otherwise use your personal information... we may notify you through other means, such as notifications in the App."

The company reserves the right to modify the privacy policy at its sole discretion, with notification only where legally required and only through optional app notifications — no affirmative consent is needed.

"Third parties who collect personal data about you to display personalized advertising. The privacy agreements regarding third parties can be viewed in the Appendix. Software development kits. We may use third-party application programming interfaces ("APIs") and software development kits ("SDKs") as part of the functionality of our services."

The app integrates Facebook, Google AdMob, Pangle, Mintergral, and Vungle SDKs, all of which build cross-app user profiles using device identifiers and advertising IDs to track users across apps and services.
