Privacy Policy
Shinkai Sky (the Chrome extension and the website at weather.tinytoolsstack.com)
The short version: Shinkai Sky shows you the weather. It does not have accounts, does not run ads, does not track you, and does not sell or share your data. It only contacts one server, to fetch the forecast.
What the extension stores
- Your temperature unit (°F or °C) and the cities you choose, kept in your browser's local storage so the widget remembers them.
- The most recent temperature, cached so the toolbar badge can show it quickly.
This information stays on your device. It is not uploaded to us.
What is sent off your device, and why
- The place you ask about. To show a forecast, the extension sends the chosen city, or coordinates, to weather.tinytoolsstack.com, which returns the weather for that place. Weather data itself comes from the public Open-Meteo service.
- Your location, only on request. If you tap "use my location," your browser provides your coordinates, which are sent once to look up the weather there. The extension never reads your location in the background and never without you asking.
What it never does
- No accounts, no logins, no sign-up.
- No advertising, no sponsored content.
- No analytics or trackers inside the extension popup.
- No reading of the pages or sites you visit. The extension only runs when you open its popup and only contacts its own weather server.
- No selling or sharing of any data with third parties.
Permissions
- Storage: remember your unit and chosen cities.
- Alarms: refresh the toolbar temperature in the background.
- Location: only when you tap "use my location," to fetch the weather there.
- Access to weather.tinytoolsstack.com: to load the widget and fetch forecasts. This is the only site the extension contacts.
Children
