StormAro Cookies and Browser Storage
Project owners, hosting and contact
StormAro.com is the project and brand created, built and owned by the creators acting as StormAro Team. StormAro Team is the public name of the creators, not automatically a separate legal person. Hosting does not give an infrastructure provider ownership of the project or brand.
BOMEGA spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością (Bomega Sp. z o.o.), Długa 2B, 56-416 Twardogóra, Poland, KRS 0000841054, NIP 9112034523, REGON 386056613, provides hosting, server maintenance and technical operations for StormAro.com. Under the platform owner's designation, Bomega is the controller of personal data processed in connection with operating the platform, to the extent that it determines the purposes and means of processing. Technical infrastructure services alone do not transfer ownership of the brand or its content.
Contact for personal-data requests and rights, incidents and technical operation of the platform: [email protected]. Enquiries about data independently handled by third-party providers, including weather and mapping providers, may also need to be directed to the relevant independent controller. Questions about data processing or responsibilities for particular features may be directed to the contact address above.
The creators acting as StormAro Team own the StormAro project and brand. Rights in particular works, software, images, trademarks and external data sources follow actual authorship, agreements and licences. Bomega acquires no such rights merely by hosting the site.
Essential mechanisms
StormAro may rely on session and security mechanisms to protect accounts, form integrity and technical functions. Blocking essential browser storage can interfere with login and saved settings.
Local storage
StormAro uses localStorage for language, default location, appearance preferences, notification preferences and selected workspace information. localStorage is not itself a cookie, but it is website storage that users can manage in their browsers.
Geolocation and notifications
Precise browser geolocation and notifications are governed by separate browser permissions. Opening a page does not automatically constitute consent to optional notifications or ongoing precise location access.
External services
Map, forecast and other external providers may use network technologies under their own policies. Non-essential tracking technologies require proper disclosures and prior consent wherever applicable law requires it.
Controls
You can block or clear website storage using browser settings and withdraw browser permissions. StormAro privacy controls can clear selected locally stored data but do not necessarily delete synchronized account data.
Browser storage technologies
StormAro can use cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage and application cache to remember preferences and interface state. These technologies differ: cookies may be sent with network requests, while localStorage and sessionStorage are accessed by scripts in the browser.
Language, units, map style, selected town and other settings may remain saved on the device. Changing browser or profile will not necessarily transfer them.
Places and route storage
Local browser storage can include chosen coordinates, cities, route control points, map scenes and dashboard layouts. These items help display the preferred weather view without having to re-enter every value.
A route or stored point may reveal home or work locations. Users sharing a device should review saved items. Clearing browser site data may erase them.
Accounts and synchronisation
Authentication and the synchronisation of selected settings may involve necessary cookies or session information. These protect access to the Account and enable requested features. Blocking them can prevent successful login or synchronisation.
Do not share session identifiers or credentials. Removing cookies may end a session but does not necessarily close the Account itself.
Geolocation
Device geolocation is controlled through a separate browser or operating system permission. It is not the same as a cookie. Users may deny permission and choose a place manually where the relevant interface is available.
After consent, coordinates may be used to request a forecast. Permission can be withdrawn at device level, and the accuracy of the resulting position varies.
Notifications and service workers
Weather notifications may require separate browser permission and storing selected alert settings. Service workers can support browser-app functionality and offline resource caching. An installed web app shortcut does not mean general consent to future notifications.
Notifications can be disabled in StormAro and through browser or operating-system settings. Clearing the app's data may also remove some saved preferences.
External weather and mapping sources
Weather layers, imagery and maps can rely on resources from data suppliers, sometimes through a StormAro server-side proxy. The information shared depends on the integration and the current function.
Other websites and external resources may use their own technologies when accessed directly by the browser. Their separate privacy and licensing notices may apply.
Optional technologies and consent
Access to or storage of information on a device is subject to electronic communications rules. Strictly necessary technologies may fall within applicable exceptions. Other uses require the relevant information and consent where provided by law.
Refusing optional functionality should not unreasonably block independent features. Any future analytics or advertising technology must have an appropriate basis and means of managing consent.
Clearing and managing storage
Browsers let users inspect, limit or delete cookies and stored website data. Removing them may erase preferred locations, routes and saved visual settings. Depending on the browser, some cached resources may also be cleared.
Deleting browser cookies does not automatically remove the data held in a registered Account. Requests concerning personal-data rights can be directed through the contacts explained in the separate Privacy Notice.
