Necessary local data: your analytics preference and last international locale are stored in this browser. The locale is kept for up to 90 days only to show a return suggestion on the Korean home page and never triggers an automatic redirect. If the browser sends Global Privacy Control, StarsWithMe stores analytics denied as a stricter product choice.
Website analytics may collect the page URL and title, browser and device information, interaction events, cookie or client identifiers, and an approximate region inferred from network information. We use these data to understand reliability and improve page flows.
These pages do not provide accounts, comments, ratings, photo uploads, or precise browser geolocation. Stopping analytics does not change forecasts or access information.
Analytics choice, Global Privacy Control, and withdrawal
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are enabled by default. You may stop them at any time from Privacy settings in the footer. A detected Global Privacy Control signal disables analytics.
StarsWithMe does not sell personal information, share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, or use targeted advertising on these pages. A detected Global Privacy Control signal is honored as analytics denied, which is broader than the signal's sale, sharing, and targeted-advertising scope.
Stopping analytics removes the tracking scripts, attempts to clear related first-party cookies, stores your preference, and reloads the page. Data already collected remains subject to the retention periods below and applicable deletion rights.
Processors and disclosures
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity process optional analytics. Cloudflare delivers the site and may process security and network logs. These providers operate global infrastructure under their contractual and legal safeguards.
Open-Meteo and CAMS supply build-time forecast context. NWS, AirNow, NPS, state park, operator, and road authorities are source links or build inputs. StarsWithMe does not send them a visitor analytics identifier to serve a forecast page.
StarsWithMe does not sell personal information, share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, or create cross-site advertising profiles.
Retention
Your analytics preference remains in browser storage until you change it or clear site data. The last international locale expires after 90 days and is removed when you dismiss its return suggestion or clear site data.
User- and event-level Google Analytics data is retained for no more than 14 months under the StarsWithMe retention policy. Provider aggregate reports may not use the same user-level retention control.
Microsoft currently retains ordinary session recordings for 30 days and click or heatmap data, including labeled or favorited sessions, for up to 13 months. Security logs are retained only as long as reasonably needed for abuse prevention and legal obligations.
Your state privacy choices and requests
Depending on where you live and whether a law applies to this operator, you may have rights to know or access personal information, obtain a copy, correct it, delete it, opt out of sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or certain profiling, receive non-discriminatory treatment, or appeal a denied request.
Email [email protected]. We may request limited information to verify the requester and will explain if a law, threshold, exception, or retention obligation applies.
Security and service boundaries
StarsWithMe minimises collection, honors the persistent analytics opt-out and Global Privacy Control, and reviews access and retention using Federal Trade Commission security guidance.
Stargazing scores are anonymous forecast decisions, not emergency alerts. Official warning, smoke, park, operator, and road sources remain the controlling safety information.
