GoDayGoDay privacy
Last updated 3 October 2026
GoDay is run by C9 Operations Pty Ltd, trading as C9 Apps (ABN 79 662 559 962), in South Australia. This page explains what happens to your information when you use godayapp.com. In short: no accounts, no cookies, no ads, and we never sell your information.
Kept on your device
Your spot, your saved spots (up to 8), the sport you last looked at, your units and, for beaches, which way the beach faces. They're kept in your browser's storage so GoDay remembers them next time, and they never reach our server. Clearing this site's data in your browser removes them.
Sent to the weather service
Your browser gets forecasts straight from Open-Meteo. Each forecast request carries the spot's coordinates, rounded to about 100 metres, and like any web request, your IP address and browser details. When you search for a place, what you type, your browser's language and, if known, your country go to Open-Meteo's place search. Your browser starts connecting to Open-Meteo as soon as the app opens, so Open-Meteo can see your IP address even before you pick a spot. Open-Meteo's own privacy terms cover what it does with requests.
"Use my location"
Only if you tap it, and only after your browser asks your permission. Your position is rounded to about 100 metres before it's used or saved, and then it's treated like any other spot. You can always search for a place instead.
The rain map
The map's pictures come from OpenStreetMap and RainViewer. Your browser asks them for the map squares around your spot, so they see your IP address and roughly which area the map shows. See the OpenStreetMap and RainViewer privacy policies.
Cloudflare
All traffic to GoDay goes through Cloudflare, which protects the site and delivers it quickly. Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits and measures page speed, without cookies. Cloudflare also works out which country you're in from your IP address, and GoDay uses that only to list places in your country first in search. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Our server's records
Like most websites, our server records each visit: your IP address and country, the time, the page, the page you came from, your browser and its language. We use these records to keep the site secure, fix problems and count visitors. The visit records are deleted after 7 days, and the server's logs within 30 days. To show where visitors come from, our hosting dashboard also looks up the approximate place (city and internet provider) of each IP address with ip-api.com, and keeps those lookups.
Sharing a rating
A shared link carries the sport, the spot's name and region, and its coordinates rounded to about 1 kilometre. They sit in the part of the address after the #, which browsers don't send to our server, but whoever you send the link to can see them. A link from "Use my location" carries no place name.
What we don't do
No accounts, no cookies, no ads, no tracking you across other sites, and no profile of you. We don't sell your information or share it for marketing.
Where it's handled
Our server is in Australia. Open-Meteo, Cloudflare, OpenStreetMap, RainViewer and ip-api.com may handle requests in other countries, under their own policies.
Children
GoDay is a general weather site. It doesn't ask anyone for personal details, and isn't aimed at children.
Your choices
You can use GoDay without "Use my location", and clear its data from your browser at any time. GoDay has no accounts, so we can't link our records to your name. If you want to ask about, see or delete information about you, email [email protected] and we'll help as far as we can. If you're not happy with our answer, you can complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner or your own country's privacy regulator.
Changes
If any of this changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top. Questions: [email protected].
