Privacy Policy

Updated July 2026

SunPlanner ("we," "us," "our") makes a solar production forecasting app for people who live and travel off-grid: RVs, vans, skoolies, cabins, and homesteads. This page explains, in plain language, what this website collects and what it does not, plus an honest summary of how the SunPlanner app itself handles your data. We never sell your data, we never run ads on this site, and this site never collects your location.

1. What this website collects

An email address, only if you give it to us. If you're on iPhone and use the "Notify me" form, we store your email address so we can tell you when iOS testing or launch opens. That's the only thing this website asks you for. This site has no user accounts, no contact forms beyond the notify-me box, and does not ask for your name, phone number, or location.

2. What this website never does

• Never collects your location. Nothing on this website reads or requests your GPS position, IP-based location, or any other location signal.
• Never sells your data. Your email address is used only to send you SunPlanner updates. It is never sold, rented, or shared with advertisers.
• Never uses tracking cookies. This site uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, a cookieless analytics service that counts visits and pages without a tracking cookie, a device fingerprint, or your location. That's why this site has no cookie banner: there is nothing to consent to.
• Never runs ads or ad trackers. There are no third-party ad networks, ad pixels, or retargeting scripts on this site.

3. The SunPlanner app

The SunPlanner mobile app is a separate product from this website, and it does use your device's location, because that's how it computes a solar forecast for the exact spot you're parked. Here is the honest, short version:

• Your location (GPS) is used on your device to request a forecast and draw the in-app map. Your coordinates are sent to the weather and map providers that power the forecast: Open-Meteo, BigDataCloud, Pirate Weather (through a small relay we operate), and Mapbox. Each receives only your coordinates, never your identity, because the app has no user accounts to tie them to. We do not keep a history of your locations on our own servers.
• Your equipment and production history (panel wattage, inverter type, calibration data) stay on your device only. They are never uploaded to us or anyone else.
• Crash reports go to Sentry so we can fix bugs. They contain no name, no email, and no location.
• App update checks go to Expo. They send only your platform and app version.

4. Who else sees your data

This website's own data (your email, if you gave it to us) is stored in Cloudflare's infrastructure and is never shared with anyone outside SunPlanner. We do not sell, rent, or trade it, and we do not share it with anyone for advertising.

5. How long we keep it

We keep your email address until you ask us to remove it, or until 12 months after the app's public launch, whichever comes first.

6. Your rights

You can ask us to access, correct, delete, or export your email address at any time by writing to the address below, and we will act within 7 days. If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, you have the same rights under GDPR (access, correction, deletion, portability). If you are a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA, including the right to know what we collect and the right to delete it. Since we never sell data, there is nothing to opt out of on that front, but you can still ask us to delete your email at any time.

7. Children

SunPlanner is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site and app change. Meaningful changes will be noted here with a new date at the top.
