BBC Weather app and your privacy
To display weather in your current location, you can activate location services on your device. Youll find them in Settings>Privacy>Location Services.

Dont worry, your precise location is not stored by the BBC; the app chooses the closest location where weather information is available.

This info is kept anonymous, secure and we wont share it with anyone. No other personal data relating to you will be sent to the BBC either (for instance, a username, email address or unique device identifier). If you dont want the BBC Weather app to display the weather for your current location just go to Settings>Privacy>Locations Services>BBC Weather. Then where it says "Allow location access" select "Never".

If you install this app you accept the BBC Terms of Use at http://www.bbc.co.uk/terms. To read BBC’s Privacy Policy go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/privacy.

Having a BBC account offers a safe and secure way to add up to 10 locations which you can access on other devices when you sign in. To find out more about getting your own BBC account and what it lets you do, then go to https://www.bbc.co.uk/usingthebbc/account.
