- Weather
What is the service?
The ‘Weather’ service provides you with an hourly and daily weather and rain forecast at your home address or your current location.
What personal data will Proximus use?
- Home address;
- Geolocation of your device (optional)*.
*The processing of the geolocation of your device is optional and will only take place if you allow the Proximus+ app to access the geolocation information. Your device’s geolocation is used to provide you with a weather and rain forecast for your current location. You can use the ‘Weather’ service without enabling the Proximus+ app to access geolocation information, in which case your home address will be used for the weather and rain forecast. If you want to stop the Proximus+ app from accessing geolocation information, you can turn off the access to geolocation information for the Proximus+ app in the settings of your device. The geolocation of your device will not be used to follow your movements.
