How your location is used

  • Nothing happens until you press Use my location and your browser asks your permission.
  • Your position is rounded to about 10 km (6 miles) and sent only toOpen-Meteo, a weather data service, to look up 30 years of winter low temperatures for your area. No cookies or other details go with it.
  • Big Tree Finder has no server that receives your location, and your location is never saved anywhere.
  • Only the zone number it works out is saved, in this browser on this device, so the picker remembers it next time. Choose Any zone or Reset filters to clear it.
  • The zone is an estimate from climate data and can differ from official maps by about half a zone. In the US, you can check it on the USDA map.
