Short version: RexWeather does not collect, store, sell, or share personal information. The app uses your location only to retrieve relevant weather, severe weather, model, outlook, and tornado-history data.
How App Data Is Used
- Location: Used by the app only to provide location-based weather, severe weather alerts, SPC outlooks, Tornado Potential ingredients, and nearby tornado history. Your location may be used to request relevant data from providers such as Apple WeatherKit, NOAA/NWS, NOAA Storm Prediction Center, NOAA NCEI, NOAA Damage Assessment Toolkit, and Open-Meteo. RexWeather does not collect or store your location on our servers.
- Weather & Tornado Data: Retrieved from public and platform data sources such as Apple WeatherKit, NOAA/NWS, NOAA SPC, NOAA NCEI, NOAA DAT, and Open-Meteo. This data may be cached locally on your device for offline use and faster loading.
What We Do Not Collect
- No account creation or login.
- No analytics or tracking.
- No advertising identifiers.
- No sale or sharing of personal information.
Local Caching
RexWeather may cache weather, alert, outlook, model, tornado, and map-related data locally on your device. This helps the app load faster and remain useful when service is spotty. Clearing app data or deleting the app removes locally cached data.
