Privacy Policy for Sunly

Effective Date: 05/24/2025

Thank you for using Sunly (“we”, “our”, or “us”). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is collected, used, and disclosed when you use our iOS app.

By using the app, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal personal data and only what is necessary to provide the core functionality of the app.

a. Location Data

We request access to your device’s location to fetch local weather data using Apple’s WeatherKit.
We do not store or transmit your location to our servers. Location data is passed directly to Apple’s WeatherKit API.
You can control location permissions at any time through your device settings.

b. Analytics & Crash Reporting (via Firebase)

We use Firebase, a service provided by Google, to collect anonymized analytics and crash reports. This helps us understand app usage and improve performance.

Firebase may collect:

Device and app information (e.g., model, OS version, crashes)
General usage patterns and event metrics (no personally identifiable information)
IP address (used temporarily for analytics purposes)

You can learn more about Firebase’s data practices here:
https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

Provide weather data relevant to your location
Monitor and improve the app’s stability and performance
Understand user engagement and fix issues

We do not use your data for advertising or tracking purposes.

3. Data Storage

We do not store any user data on our own servers. All analytics and crash data are processed and stored by Firebase in accordance with their privacy policies.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. Data may be shared only with:

Apple, for providing weather data via WeatherKit
Google Firebase, for app performance monitoring and crash analytics
Authorities, only if required by law

5. Your Choices

You can opt out of sharing location data by disabling location permissions in iOS settings.
You can disable analytics and crash reporting through your iOS device’s privacy settings under “Analytics & Improvements”.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our app is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
