ForeDrive is built so that we hold as little about you as possible. There are no accounts, and your trips stay on your device.
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.
| Service | What it receives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Open-Meteo | The latitude and longitude of points along your route, and the dates | Hourly forecasts |
| National Weather Service (NOAA) | The area your route crosses | Official watches and warnings |
| OSRM (routing.openstreetmap.de) | Your start, stops and destination | Route and travel times |
| Photon (komoot) and Open-Meteo geocoding | The place names you type, and route points | Turning names into map positions and back |
| OpenFreeMap | The map area on screen | Map tiles |
| RainViewer | The map area on screen | Radar overlay, only when you turn it on |
| Google Fonts and jsDelivr | A standard web request | The typeface and the map library |
These services have their own privacy policies. Requests carry your device's internet address, as every web request does.
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.
We do not use analytics trackers, advertising pixels or third-party cookies.
ForeDrive is for drivers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from them.
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.
