Privacy policy

Last updated September 22, 2026

ForeDrive is built so that we hold as little about you as possible. There are no accounts, and your trips stay on your device.

What stays on your device

What the app sends to other services

To build a briefing, the app in your browser asks these services directly. Each one receives only what it needs for that request, and none of them receives your name or email.

ServiceWhat it receivesWhy
Open-MeteoThe latitude and longitude of points along your route, and the datesHourly forecasts
National Weather Service (NOAA)The area your route crossesOfficial watches and warnings
OSRM (routing.openstreetmap.de)Your start, stops and destinationRoute and travel times
Photon (komoot) and Open-Meteo geocodingThe place names you type, and route pointsTurning names into map positions and back
OpenFreeMapThe map area on screenMap tiles
RainViewerThe map area on screenRadar overlay, only when you turn it on
Google Fonts and jsDelivrA standard web requestThe typeface and the map library

These services have their own privacy policies. Requests carry your device's internet address, as every web request does.

Your location

The app asks for your location only when you tap Locate or My location, or when you open a favorite that starts from wherever you are. Your position is used to fill in the start of the trip and to center the map. It is not stored by us and not sent anywhere except as the start point of the routing and forecast requests above.

What we store on our servers

We do not use analytics trackers, advertising pixels or third-party cookies.

Children

ForeDrive is for drivers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will note it here with a new date, and email anyone on the launch list if the change affects them.
