This service is used in the Historic Weather app. UI preferences (light/dark mode, display settings) are stored locally in your browser via localStorage. Google Tag Manager/Analytics and Vercel Analytics are used for aggregated statistics, and Google Ads/AdSense serves advertisements — both may set cookies that require consent in some jurisdictions. Third parties may set additional cookies. Read more about your choices.

2. What data is collected

5. Google Analytics
Google Tag Manager may load analytics tools (including Google Analytics 4) that collect aggregated information (page views, approximate geography, device type, referrals). Data may include IP address (anonymized by default in GA4), browser/device identifiers, and timestamps. You can opt out via browser extension: Google Opt-out.
6. Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights
Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights are used to measure performance and stability (e.g., page views, Web Vitals, and load times). Data may include technical metadata such as IP address (can be anonymized), device type, and browser. See Vercel's privacy policy.
7. Google Ads / AdSense and third-party technologies
Third-party advertisers (including Google) may place and read cookies, use web beacons/pixels, and record IP addresses and contextual signals to deliver and measure ads. We aim for non-personalized (contextual) ads. You can manage your preferences at Google Ads Settings and Your Online Choices.
