Visit counts

We count visits with PostHog, on its EU cloud (data stored in the European Union), reached through our own address po.scubaforecast.com, to learn which pages and features people use. It runs in cookieless mode: nothing is stored on your device, and visits can't be linked across days. PostHog is set to discard IP addresses. What it records: the page, the page you came from, your country, your type of device and browser, and a few actions on the site (choosing a day, opening a search result).

Your choice of units

If you change the units (for example to feet or °F), the choice is saved in your browser's local storage so pages show it next time. It stays on your device and is never sent to us. Clearing your browser's site data removes it.

Hosting

The site is served from Amazon Web Services in the EU, through its CloudFront network, which needs your IP address to deliver pages. We don't keep its access logs. For each page requested we keep, for 14 days and without your IP address, the page, the response status and the software that asked for it (its user agent), to count visits from AI assistants and crawlers, which our visit counter can't see. Fonts and map tiles come from our own servers, not from third parties.

Forecast data

Forecasts are made on our servers before you visit, from Open-Meteo and the Copernicus Marine Service. Your browser doesn't contact them.
