Lucid Launcher 2
Privacy Policy
Data
The app itself does not collect any information from any user. All of the permissions required for the app are for additional functionality such as searching contacts and launching shortcuts.
Weather Feature
Lucid Launcher 2 uses the Open-Meteo API (https://open-meteo.com) for weather data. This API is free, open-source, does not require an API key, and does not track or profile users.
The weather feature is disabled by default. It only activates when you manually enable it in Clock Settings and explicitly consent to the privacy notice. Until then, no weather-related requests or location access occurs.
Location is only accessed when the weather feature is enabled and you have granted location permission. If you enter a custom city name, the app does not request your device location. It resolves the city name to coordinates once and uses those coordinates for all subsequent weather fetches. If no custom city is set, the app reads your device’s last known location solely to retrieve local weather. Your raw coordinates are never stored by Lucid Launcher 2. They are sent only to the Open-Meteo API for weather lookup and are not retained by our app.
The following data is sent to Open-Meteo’s servers:
- Latitude and longitude coordinates (either from your device location or your entered city name)
These requests are standard HTTP GET calls and may be logged by Open-Meteo in accordance with their own privacy policy: https://open-meteo.com/en/privacy
We do not collect, store, or transmit your location, weather data, or any other personal information to third parties outside of the direct API calls described above. Weather data is cached locally on your device for up to 10 minutes and is never uploaded anywhere.
You can disable the weather feature at any time in Clock Settings. Doing so immediately stops all location access and weather-related network requests.
Shortcuts
Shortcuts from other apps could collect information but that should be written in their own privacy policy.
Local Storage
The app also uses different types of application data caches locally for quick startup next time the app is started.
Rights & Distribution
We reserve rights to modify this policy whenever needed, but the latest version will be on this page. Unauthorized distribution of Lucid Launcher is not allowed.
