This policy explains what information UV Index Today uses, why we use it, and how you can reach us. Last updated: September 3, 2026.

1. Location for UV readings

We use your IP address only to estimate an approximate location so we can show a relevant UV index. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not intentionally collect names, emails, or other personal identity details through the UV tool itself.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

We use essential cookies needed for the site to function. We also use Google Analytics (via gtag) to understand aggregate traffic and improve performance. Analytics cookies help us see which pages are used; they are not used by us to identify you personally.

3. Advertising cookies (Google AdSense)

We may use Google AdSense to display ads on this site. Ads are not showing yet; this section covers how Google advertising cookies work when they do.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

4. Third-party services

Hosting, analytics, and advertising providers (including Google) may process technical data such as IP address, browser type, cookies, and request timing under their own policies.
