Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 29, 2026

Welcome to Weather Radar USA ("we," "our," or "us"), available at https://weatherradarusa.online/. We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our visitors while delivering real-time weather radar maps, interactive Doppler loops, and National Weather Service (NWS) storm alerts.

This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how it is used, and how advertising partners like Google AdSense use cookies.

1. Information We Collect

a. Non-Personally Identifiable Information

Like most web platforms, our servers automatically collect standard log data when you visit our website. This includes:

  • Browser type, operating system, and device information.
  • IP address (used to infer broad regional weather coordinates or country).
  • Date, time stamp, referring/exit pages, and click counts.

b. Geolocation Data

When you click the "Use My Current Location" button, your browser prompts you for permission to share your GPS latitude and longitude. This information is processed strictly within your local browser session to focus the radar map and fetch your local temperature. We do not store or track your precise location on our servers.

2. Cookies and Web Beacons

Weather Radar USA uses cookies to store user preferences (such as your chosen Fahrenheit/Celsius unit or Dark/Light theme mode). You may choose to disable cookies through your individual browser settings.

3. Google AdSense & DoubleClick DART Cookies

We use Google AdSense and third-party advertising vendors to serve ads when you visit our website:

  • Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on Weather Radar USA.
  • Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our users based on their visits to our site and other sites on the Internet.
  • Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or through the Network Advertising Initiative at aboutads.info.

4. Affiliate Links & Advertising Disclosure

Weather Radar USA participates in affiliate marketing programs, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This means we may earn a small commission when you purchase weather radios, home weather stations, or storm preparedness gear through links on our site, at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links use tracking cookies with a limited duration to attribute qualifying purchases.

5. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

Under the CCPA, California consumers have the right to request that a business disclose what personal data it collects, request deletion of personal information, and request that a business not sell their personal data. We do not sell any personal information.

6. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

For visitors from the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights regarding access, rectification, portability, and erasure of personal information. You can adjust your consent choices at any time.

7. Third-Party Meteorological Services

Our website interfaces with reputable public weather data APIs including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA / NWS), Open-Meteo, and RainViewer to display Doppler radar tiles and forecast models.
