This website (meteotemplate.com) is a static, informational tribute and "bridge" site that continues the Meteotemplate story and points visitors to the WS40 — Weather Station 40 WordPress plugin. It has no login, no forms, no newsletter, no user accounts and no profiling. It collects no personal data beyond what is strictly necessary for the site to work and, only with your consent, basic anonymous traffic statistics.

With your consent, this site uses Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Ltd. It helps us understand how many people visit and which pages they read, in aggregate. IP addresses are anonymised. Analytics scripts and cookies are not loaded until you actively accept them in the cookie banner; if you reject, Google Analytics is never activated. Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the United States under the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework. You can withdraw consent at any time (see “Your choices”).
The site owner uses Google Search Console to view how the site performs in Google Search. This is a tool for the owner only: it relies on a verification tag and does not set any cookies on your device and does not track you on this site.
The site is hosted by Aruba S.p.A. (Italy, EU). For security and correct delivery of the pages, the hosting infrastructure may set strictly-necessary technical cookies (for example load-balancing or security tokens). These are not used for tracking or profiling and do not require consent. Standard server access logs (IP address, timestamp, requested page, user agent) may be processed by the host for security and troubleshooting, as is normal for any web server.
Because the site is static, it does not: run contact or subscription forms, create accounts, send marketing, build advertising profiles, or share your data with advertisers. There are no social or advertising trackers.
You can accept or reject analytics at any time via the cookie banner. To change your mind after
choosing, delete the site cookies in your browser (or the ws40consent cookie) and reload the
page — the banner will appear again. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, and to data portability. You may exercise these rights, or withdraw consent, by contacting the data controller above. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Italian supervisory authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
We may update this policy; the “last updated” date above always reflects the current version.
