Terms of Service & Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 24, 2026

Part 1: Terms of Service & Disclaimers

1. Nature of the Service

WeatherWin provides weather information and a gamified interface ("The Slot") to present vouchers and deals. WeatherWin is not a gambling platform. No real money is wagered, and "wins" consist of access to third-party discounts, affiliate offers, or digital rewards with no inherent cash value.

2. Affiliate & Advertising Disclosure

Important: WeatherWin is a for-profit application. We use affiliate networks (including Skimlinks and Sovrn). This means that when you click on a deal or "redeem" a voucher through our app, we may receive a commission from the merchant if you make a purchase. This does not increase the cost to you.

3. Accuracy of Information

Weather data is provided "as is" for informational purposes. While we strive for accuracy, WeatherWin is not responsible for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by incorrect weather forecasts. Furthermore, we do not guarantee the availability or validity of third-party merchant vouchers.

4. Third-Party Links

Our app contains links to external merchant websites. Once you leave WeatherWin, we have no control over the content, privacy policies, or practices of those third-party sites.

Part 2: Privacy Policy

1. Data Collection & Legal Basis

To provide weather-contingent deals, we process:

  • Approximate Location: Used to sync weather conditions with relevant local offers.
  • Device ID: A unique, anonymous string to track your "win" history and voucher redemptions.
  • Affiliate Tracking Data: When you click a deal, a tracking "click ID" is generated to ensure we receive credit for the referral.

2. How We Use Your Data

  • Contextual Matching: Matching the "Slot" results (e.g., 3 Suns) to high-value summer/outdoor deals.
  • Fraud Prevention: Ensuring vouchers are not being manipulated or redeemed in violation of merchant terms.

3. Third-Party Data Sharing

We share minimal technical data with:

  • Affiliate Networks (Skimlinks/Sovrn): To facilitate the tracking of your purchases for commission purposes.
  • Weather API Providers: Your approximate coordinates (obfuscated) to fetch local data.

We do NOT sell your personal identity or contact info to data brokers.

4. Affiliate Cookies

When you engage with a deal, the affiliate network may drop a "cookie" on your browser or device. This cookie typically lasts 30–90 days and exists solely to attribute a sale back to WeatherWin. You can clear your cookies via your device settings at any time.

5. Your Rights (GDPR/CCPA/VCDPA)

Regardless of your location, we honor requests to:

  • Access: See what data is linked to your Device ID.
  • Delete: Wipe all history associated with your device.
  • Opt-Out: Disable location tracking (though this will limit the app's functionality).

6. Contact & Data Controller
