Privacy Policy

Acme Weather prioritizes your privacy and aims to maintain your trust. We collect and retain only the information necessary to provide our services, and we make efforts to remove personally identifiable information from the data we keep. User data is only shared with third parties when required by law or when it directly supports the services we offer, and we take precautions to protect personal information.

This Privacy Policy outlines how Acme Weather Corporation, LLC and its affiliates ("Acme Weather") collect, use, share, and transfer your information, including personal details, when you use the AcmeWeather.com website ("Website") or the Acme Weather iOS and Android applications ("Applications," collectively "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the data practices described in this policy.

We may disclose your information in the following ways:

• in the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, we may share only the information necessary to ensure the continued operation of the Service

Opt-out

To halt all data collection by the Service, uninstall the Applications and discontinue use of the Website. Due to the anonymization of most collected data, we cannot link it to specific users or delete previously gathered information.

You may also turn off notifications in the Application to prevent location data collection when the Application is not active.

California Do Not Track Disclosures

Some browsers offer "do not track" signals, but as there's no standards for this yet, we don't currently act on them.

Security

We take the protection of your information seriously and employ various safeguards including physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards. Access to your data is limited to authorized personnel only, and we take reasonable steps to secure your information, though no system is entirely breach-proof.

This Privacy Policy applies to the collection of information from U.S. residents. If you access our services from outside the U.S., your data may be transferred to and processed in the U.S., where our servers and database are located. U.S. data protection laws may differ from those in your country. Please be assured that we seek to take reasonable steps to ensure that your privacy is protected. By using the Service, you consent to the transfer and processing of your information as described.

This Privacy Policy is effective January 1, 2026.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason. We will notify you of any changes to our Privacy Policy by posting the new Privacy Policy here (https://acmeweather.com/privacy) and informing you via a post on our blog.
