Summia Heat Alert helps users view local WBGT, heat-risk, and air-quality information. This policy explains what information the app may collect, how it is used, and the choices available to users.

1. App Covered by This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Summia Heat Alert, a weather-risk information app for local heat and air-quality conditions.

2. Information We Collect

The app may collect or process the following types of information:

Location information: With your permission, the app may access your device location to find nearby weather, WBGT, heat-risk, and air-quality data. This may include latitude and longitude.
Saved locations and app preferences: The app may store selected locations, notification settings, widget settings, and other preferences on your device.
Weather and air-quality request data: Approximate coordinates or location identifiers may be sent to weather and air-quality providers to retrieve local conditions and forecasts.
Notification data: If you enable notifications, the app may use device notification permissions and push notification services to deliver alerts.
Analytics and diagnostics: The app may use Firebase Analytics or similar services to understand app usage, performance, and reliability.
Advertising data: If ads are shown, Google Mobile Ads may collect or use device identifiers and ad-related data according to its own policies.
Purchase and subscription data: If premium features are offered, RevenueCat and the relevant app store may process purchase status, subscription status, product identifiers, and transaction-related information.

3. How We Use Information

We use information to:

Show local WBGT, heat-risk, weather, and air-quality information.
Find nearby National Weather Service grid data or other relevant weather data sources.
Update app widgets and optional background refresh features.
Send heat-risk or air-quality notifications when enabled by the user.
Maintain premium subscription access and restore purchases.
Improve app reliability, performance, and user experience.
Display ads, where applicable.

4. Location Information

Location access is used to provide local weather-risk information. Latitude and longitude may be sent to weather and air-quality providers only as needed to retrieve local conditions, forecasts, and related information. Summia Heat Alert does not sell your location data.

You can disable location access at any time in your device settings. Some app features may not work correctly without location permission.

5. Third-Party Services

The app may rely on third-party services that process data under their own privacy policies, including:

National Weather Service and related public weather data services.
WeatherAPI or other weather and air-quality data providers.
Firebase services, including Firebase Analytics and Firebase Cloud Messaging.
Google Mobile Ads.
RevenueCat for subscription and purchase management.
Apple App Store or Google Play for purchases, subscriptions, and distribution.

6. Data Storage and Retention

Some data, such as saved locations, widget settings, cached weather data, and notification preferences, may be stored locally on your device. Local data remains on your device until you change settings, clear app data, or uninstall the app.

Third-party services may retain analytics, advertising, notification, or purchase-related data according to their own retention policies.

7. Sharing of Information

We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared with third-party service providers only to operate app features, provide weather and air-quality data, deliver notifications, support analytics, manage subscriptions, display ads, comply with legal obligations, or protect the app and its users.

8. Your Choices

You can control your information through your device and app settings, including:

Turning location permission on or off.
Turning notification permission on or off.
Changing alert and widget settings in the app.
Resetting advertising identifiers or limiting ad personalization through device settings, where available.
Managing subscriptions through Google Play or the Apple App Store.
Uninstalling the app to remove locally stored app data from your device.

Summia Heat Alert is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

10. Health and Safety Notice

Summia Heat Alert provides informational weather-risk guidance only. It is not a medical device and does not replace professional medical advice, emergency services, employer safety rules, or official local guidance.
