Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 29, 2026

The Short Version

We don't collect, store, or sell your personal data. Your preferences stay on your device.

Data We Store

WalkMyDog.today stores only two pieces of information, and both are saved exclusively in your browser's localStorage (on your device, not on our servers):

• Breed selection - so you don't have to re-select each visit
• Location coordinates and name - so we can show your local conditions

You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser's site data.

Data We Don't Collect

• No user accounts or registration
• No cookies (beyond what your browser stores locally)
• No invasive tracking or cookies
• No personal information
• No data shared with advertisers

Third-Party Services

To provide weather, location, and regional preference data, information is sent to:

• Open-Meteo.com - for weather and air quality data (their privacy policy)
• OpenStreetMap Nominatim - for converting locations to coordinates and vice versa (their privacy policy)
• ipapi.co - for detecting your country to set a default temperature unit (°F or °C). This request uses your IP address and is only made once if you have not already set a unit preference.
• Umami Analytics - for privacy-focused, cookie-free analytics. Umami does not use cookies or track you across sites. It collects only basic, anonymized usage data (such as page views, device type, and referrer) to help us understand site usage and improve the service. No personal or identifying information is collected or stored. Learn more.

These services receive your latitude/longitude or IP address to return data. We do not control how they handle this information. Please review their respective privacy policies.

Location Data

When you allow location access, your browser provides your coordinates directly to our page. These coordinates are stored only in your browser's localStorage and sent to weather APIs to fetch current conditions. We do not have a server that receives or stores your location.

Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Significant changes will be noted on the main page.
