Privacy Policy

How CampCall handles information when you search a place and get a camping verdict. No account is required.

Last updated: July 4, 2026

Overview

CampCall("we," "us") gives camping go / caution / no-go recommendations from weather forecasts. There is no login or registration today, and we do not ask for your name, email, or password.

Information we collect

Location queries.When you search a place, we send the place name and coordinates to our servers so we can fetch a forecast and compute a verdict. We do not track your GPS unless you tap "Near me," which only runs when you start it.

Search limits. To enforce daily search limits and prevent abuse, we may store an anonymous client identifier in your browser and count searches against it (or your IP address). This is not tied to a name or email.

On your device only.Recent searches and display preferences (such as temperature units) may be saved in your browser's local storage. That data stays on your device unless you clear it.

Weather data providers

Forecasts come from WeatherAPI.com. When you search a place, we send coordinates and place names needed to return forecast data. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policy.

Cookies

We do not use authentication cookies or advertising cookies. Any preferences we store use your browser's local storage on your device.

How we use data

  • Return camping decisions and forecasts for the places you search
  • Enforce daily search limits and prevent abuse
  • Cache forecasts briefly so repeat checks stay fast
  • Respond if you email us for support

What we do not do

We do not sell personal information. We do not run ads or build advertising profiles. We do not create user accounts or store email addresses unless you choose to email us.

Data retention

Cached forecast data expires on a short schedule (typically about one hour) to reduce API usage. Anonymous search-limit counters reset daily. Data stored only in your browser stays there until you clear it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access or delete personal data we hold about you. Because we do not run accounts, there is usually little or nothing stored on our side beyond short-lived search limits and caches. Contact us at contact@getcampcall.com and we will respond within a reasonable time.

Children

CampCall is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept the updated policy.
