Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

This Privacy Policy explains what information iCaelum ("the App"), developed by Fasulloland in Denmark, processes when you use it, why, and for how long. Fasulloland is the data controller.

Information We Process

• Location: When you allow it, your device's coordinates are sent with forecast requests so we can return weather, tides, alerts and sky data for where you are. Sun and Moon positions are calculated on your device.
• Request logs: Our servers record each request: the time, the requested feature, your IP address, the app version, your device model, a hashed form of an app-specific device identifier, and the request's coordinates rounded to about 100 metres.
• App security (Apple App Attest): To confirm requests come from a genuine copy of iCaelum, your device creates a security key with Apple's App Attest service. We store the key's identifier and public key. They contain no personal details.
• Purchase verification: To confirm Full Access, the App sends us the Apple-signed record of your purchase or paid download. We store the transaction identifiers, the product, the purchase date and the App Store environment, linked to your installation's security key. Apple also informs us of refunds so that refunded purchases stop unlocking the App.
• Crash reports: If you share analytics with app developers in iOS Settings, Apple provides us with anonymous crash reports.

How We Use Your Information

We use this information only to:

• Provide forecasts, tides, weather alerts and sky data for your location
• Verify that requests come from a genuine copy of the App and that Full Access is valid
• Protect our service against abuse and keep it reliable
• Fix problems and improve performance

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process this information to provide the service you requested (Art. 6(1)(b)) and for our legitimate interest in keeping the service secure and working (Art. 6(1)(f)).

Location Data

• Location access is requested only for the App's features and can be turned off at any time in iOS Settings
• Coordinates are passed to the data providers listed below only to fetch forecasts and other data for that place
• Location is never used for advertising or shared for marketing

Service Providers

• Weather and sea forecast providers receive coordinates from our server to return forecasts: MET Norway, Open-Meteo, the US National Weather Service (NOAA), SMHI, FMI, the Hong Kong Observatory, Taiwan's Central Weather Administration, WeatherAPI and OpenWeather.
• Solar and map data providers receive coordinates from our server to return solar estimates and nearby map features: the European Commission, the Heidelberg Institute for Geoinformation Technology (HeiGIT) and public OpenStreetMap data services.
• Weather warnings and space weather are fetched by our server for whole countries or regions and receive no data about you.
• Rain radar maps open directly from the provider you choose (RegnRadar, DMI, meteoblue or RainViewer). That provider receives your IP address and, for some maps, an approximate position rounded to about 1 km.
• AI summaries: Google, Groq and Cloudflare write short weather, air and pollen summaries. They receive forecast values, such as temperatures, rain and wind, but not your location or any identifier.
• Cloudflare carries the encrypted connection between the App and our app server and therefore processes your IP address and the content of requests, including coordinates.
• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure hosts our app server and its request logs on our behalf, in Frankfurt, Germany (EU).
• Apple provides the App Store, purchases, refunds, App Attest, crash reports, maps and place search under its own privacy policy.

Our app server is operated by Fasulloland on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure in Frankfurt, Germany (EU). This website and its contact form are hosted by Fasulloland on its own server in Denmark (EU).

How Long We Keep Information

• Request logs: 12 months, then deleted
• Security keys and purchase records: while they are needed to verify access to the App. Purchase records are removed when Apple reports a refund.
• Data on your device (settings and cached forecasts) stays on your device and is removed when you delete the App

Your Rights

You can ask for access to, correction or deletion of the information we hold about you, or object to its processing. Because we have no accounts, include your device model and the approximate time you used the App so we can find the records. You can also complain to the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet).

• Location: grant or revoke access at any time in iOS Settings
• Notifications: enable or disable them in the App's settings
• Crash reports: iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements

Children's Privacy

iCaelum is suitable for all ages. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover we've inadvertently collected such information, we'll delete it immediately.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the App or for legal compliance. The date at the top shows the latest version.
