Privacy Policyfor “Metar Taf” Chrome Extension
Last Updated: 14 June 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how InvestAllocator Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares information in connection with the “Metar Taf” Chrome extension (“Extension”).
The Extension helps users view, decode, and understand METAR and TAF aviation weather reports.
By using the Extension, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Extension.
- Information We Collect
We aim to collect as little information as reasonably necessary to provide and improve the Extension.
1.1 Information Stored Locally in Your Browser
The Extension may store the following information locally in your browser:
- airport codes you search for or save;
- favorite airports;
- recent searches;
- unit preferences;
- display preferences;
- other settings related to how the Extension works.
This information is stored locally using Chrome’s extension storage or similar browser storage mechanisms. Local data remains on your device unless you delete it, reset the Extension, clear browser data, or uninstall the Extension.
1.2 Weather Data Requests
When you request METAR, TAF, or other aviation weather information, the Extension may send the airport code or weather station identifier to a third-party aviation weather data provider or to our own server in order to retrieve the requested weather data.
Depending on the technical implementation, the third-party provider or our server may receive technical information that is normally transmitted as part of an internet request, such as your IP address, browser information, operating system, request time, and basic technical logs.
We do not use airport searches to identify you personally.
1.3 Information You Provide Directly to Us
If you choose to contact us, submit feedback, report a bug, request support, join a waitlist, subscribe to product updates, create an account, or use paid features, we may collect information you provide directly to us, such as:
- your name;
- email address;
- feedback or support message content;
- account information;
- billing-related information;
- transaction information;
- any other information you voluntarily provide.
We only collect this information when you choose to provide it or when it is necessary to provide the requested feature or service.
1.4 Paid Features and Payment Information
If the Extension offers paid features, subscriptions, or other paid services, payments may be processed by third-party payment providers.
We do not intend to store full payment card numbers ourselves. Payment providers may collect and process payment details, billing information, transaction identifiers, and related information according to their own privacy policies and terms.
We may receive limited payment-related information, such as transaction status, subscription status, purchase date, renewal status, billing email, and payment provider identifiers, in order to manage access to paid features.
1.5 Analytics and Error Reporting
The Extension may use limited analytics or error reporting tools to understand usage, improve performance, detect bugs, and maintain security.
If analytics or error reporting tools are used, they may collect technical information such as:
- extension version;
- browser version;
- operating system;
- general usage events;
- crash logs;
- error messages;
- performance information;
- approximate country or region based on IP address.
We do not use analytics to collect browsing history, web page content, or sensitive personal information.
If we do not use analytics or error reporting in a particular version of the Extension, then this section does not apply to that version.
2, Information We Do Not CollectUnless clearly stated otherwise in this Privacy Policy, we do not collect:
- your browsing history;
- the content of web pages you visit;
- passwords;
- private messages;
- precise GPS location;
- biometric information;
- health information;
- financial account credentials;
- personal documents;
- contacts from your device;
- microphone or camera data.
The Extension is designed for aviation weather lookup and decoding, not for tracking your browsing activity.
