You can create new informers here: <a href="https://billing.meteoprog.com/informer?utm_source=wp-plugin&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=meteoprog-weather-widgets" rel="nofollow ugc">https://billing.meteoprog.com/informer</a>.</p>

<h3>Privacy</h3>
<p>This plugin itself does not collect or store any personal data. However, when the widget is displayed on the frontend, visitors’ browsers load the widget script from the Meteoprog CDN, which receives standard request information (IP address, User-Agent, Referrer).</p>
<p>The CDN may also set technical cookies required for content delivery or security. These cookies are managed by Meteoprog and are subject to their privacy policy.</p>
<p>This plugin adds a suggested section to WordPress’s default Privacy Policy page, explaining what data is transmitted when widgets are displayed.</p>

<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to the Meteoprog services to display widgets.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>https://billing.meteoprog.com — used by the plugin to fetch your informer list via a secure API request (Authorization header with your informer API key and site domain).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>https://cdn.meteoprog.net — the visitor’s browser loads a small JavaScript file from the Meteoprog CDN to render the widgets. As with any CDN, the visitor’s IP address and browser information are transmitted as part of the HTTPS request. This is standard browser behavior.</p>

</ol>
<p>No personal data is collected or stored by the plugin itself.</p>

<h4>Responsive Web Design</h4>
<p>When placed in a horizontal layout (e.g., within an article), the widget reformats to a vertical layout on mobile devices.<br />
Details of the current condition (such as feels-like temperature, wind, humidity, pressure, UV index) and forecasts extending beyond 3 hours/days are hidden on mobile devices to maintain an uncluttered appearance and preserve the design on narrow displays.</p>
<h4>Easy Styling</h4>
<p>Choose from two predefined layouts (vertical and horizontal) and customize the widget to fit your website.<br />
Font size can be manually set (in px, pt, em, rem, %, etc.) to override the automatic adjustment to the website’s font size and page placement.<br />
Background color, which adapts to the current temperature, can be set to a fixed color, including transparency options.<br />
Text color, automatically optimized for contrast against the background, can also be manually overridden.</p>
<h4>Weather Icons</h4>
<p>The weather condition icons are elegantly designed, simple, and adapt in size, color, and shade to match the widget’s text.</p>
<h4>Comprehensive Data</h4>
<p>Select from a range of weather information, including current conditions, hourly, and long-term forecasts.<br />
Current conditions display temperature, weather icon, feels-like temperature, wind, humidity, pressure, UV index, and sunrise/sunset times.<br />
Hourly forecasts provide up to 5 hours of temperature predictions with weather icons, while the daily forecast offers up to 5 days of high/low temperatures and weather conditions.</p>
<h4>Versatile Placement</h4>
<p>The Weather Atlas Widget is designed for flexibility, allowing placement either in a sidebar or within the main content of your site.<br />
It supports integration through user-friendly Gutenberg blocks or via a simple shortcode option, offering versatility and ease of use within your WordPress site.</p>
<h4>Worldwide Locations</h4>
<p>Access over 800,000 locations from 238 countries and territories. Your location is likely included 🙂</p>
<h4>Languages</h4>
<p>The widget automatically selects the language based on your site’s language settings (Settings / General / Site Language).<br />
If a local translation is unavailable, it defaults to English.<br />
Local translations can be updated for further customization.</p>

<p>Weather data is displayed in either the Imperial (°F, in, mi) or Metric system (°C, mb, mm, km).</p>
