DATA COLLECTION
PhosphorSol does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. The app does not require an account, registration, or sign-in of any kind.
NETWORK REQUESTS
PhosphorSol connects to NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) public APIs to retrieve live space weather data including solar wind measurements, Kp indices, X-ray flux readings, aurora forecasts, and alert bulletins. These requests are made directly from your device to NOAA servers. No data passes through any intermediary server operated by us.
