Overview
MyUSA.us provides weather forecasts, alerts, and radar using public data from the National Weather Service and NOAA, along with air quality and links to official state 511 traffic cameras. You do not need an account to use the site, and MyUSA.us does not sell personal information.
Information you choose to provide
When you search for weather, you may enter a city, ZIP code, or address. If you select “Use my current location,” your browser asks for permission before sharing approximate latitude and longitude with the site. Location permission is optional, and you can use a city or ZIP code instead.
Search terms and coordinates are used to return the requested forecast and radar view. MyUSA.us does not create a user profile from this information or store a personal location history in an account.
If you save a location or label it Home, Work, Family, or Vacation, the location, coordinates, and label are stored only in your browser’s local storage on that device. MyUSA.us does not place saved locations in a user account or central customer database. You can remove saved locations from the weather page or clear them through your browser settings.
If you enable browser weather alerts, your browser asks for notification permission. MyUSA.us stores the alert preference and recently displayed alert identifiers in local storage to avoid repeating the same alert. Alerts are checked while the site or installed app is open on screen. Closed-app background alerts are not currently available. This feature does not replace Wireless Emergency Alerts, NOAA Weather Radio, or instructions from local authorities.
If you email MyUSA.us, your email address, message, and any information you include are used to review and respond to your request. Email is handled by our email service provider and may be retained as needed for communication, security, or recordkeeping. Please do not send highly sensitive information.
Information processed automatically
Like most websites, the hosting platform and service providers may process technical information such as an IP address, browser and device type, requested pages, timestamps, referring pages, security signals, and basic diagnostic logs. This information helps deliver, secure, and troubleshoot the site.
Advertising
MyUSA.us is 100% ad-free. It does not display third-party advertising, sponsored placements, or personalized ads, and it does not load Google AdSense or advertising trackers.
Weather, mapping, traffic, and hosting providers
To provide the site, requests may be sent to the National Weather Service and NOAA for forecasts, alerts, observations, icons, and radar; the U.S. Census Bureau, OpenStreetMap, and Nominatim for address and location search or map tiles; EPA AirNow and Envirofacts for air-quality and UV information; official state 511 systems for traffic cameras; and the site’s hosting and security providers for page delivery. These requests may include the searched location or coordinates needed to return results. Those providers process information under their own privacy policies.

Data retention and security
MyUSA.us does not operate user accounts or a customer database. Technical logs may be retained by hosting, security, or measurement providers according to their policies. Reasonable safeguards are used, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
Children’s privacy
MyUSA.us is a general-audience weather service and is not directed to children under 13. The site does not knowingly request personal information from children.
