WindTab — Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 7, 2026

Data Collection

WindTab does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data with any third party.

Local Storage

WindTab uses chrome.storage.local to cache weather forecast data locally on your device. This data never leaves your browser.

Synced Preferences

WindTab uses chrome.storage.sync to sync your preferences — configured spots, links, and wind thresholds — across Chrome instances via your Google account. WindTab has no access to the Google account itself.

Background Refreshes

WindTab uses chrome.alarms to schedule hourly background forecast refreshes, keeping cached data up to date.

External Services

The only external service WindTab contacts is Open-Meteo, a free weather API. Requests contain only the latitude and longitude of your configured spots — no personal identifiers are sent.

Tracking

No analytics, no tracking, no cookies, no accounts, no login required.
