Overview

OSD Weather Watch keeps an eye on the sky for you. It monitors showers, thunderstorms and severe weather around your home, your phone's current location and the sites you care about, and alerts you before weather arrives — not after.

Built by One Source Datacom's managed-services team to protect client sites across South Texas, it cross-checks multiple data sources (NWS alerts, radar, hail and wind reports) so alerts are fast and trustworthy.

Features

  • Early alerts with an ETA — estimated impact time, direction of travel, speed and impact type (rain, hail, damaging wind, tornado).
  • Spoken alerts — hear the warning even when your phone is in your pocket.
  • Follows you — optionally watches your phone's current location in addition to saved sites.
  • Watch list of sites — homes, offices and client locations, each with its own status card.
  • Map and Severe tabs — live radar map and severe-weather view from the Weather Watch service.
  • 15-minute updates when severe weather is within 15 miles.
  • Weather reports — submit what you're seeing (photo optional) to improve future alerts.
  • Light, dark and Glass looks.
  • Secure back end — password-protected, encrypted with TLS, hosted by One Source Datacom.

Screenshots

Screenshots will be published with the public store release.

Requirements

  • Android 7.0 (Nougat) or later
  • Internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data)
  • Location services for current-location alerts (optional)
  • An OSD Weather Watch account

Permissions

Permission Why the App asks for it
Location (precise, including background) To alert you about weather approaching where you are now, even when the App is closed. Optional — saved sites still work without it.
Notifications To deliver weather alerts.
Camera / Photos Only when you choose to attach a photo to a weather report.
Internet / network state To download weather data and send alerts.
Run in background (foreground service) To keep watching the weather and speak alerts reliably.

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how One Source Datacom, LLC ("One Source Datacom", "we", "us") handles information in OSD Weather Watch (the "App"). It applies to the App on every platform we publish it on, including Google Play, the Apple App Store and the Microsoft Store where available.

Information we collect

  • Account information — name, email address and a securely hashed password, used to sign in.
  • Location — saved site addresses you enter and, if you enable it, your device's precise location, used only to check weather near you. Location history is not sold or shared.
  • Weather reports you submit — description, time, location and an optional photo.
  • Device notification token — so we can deliver alerts to your device.
  • Technical logs — server logs (IP address, timestamps, errors) kept for security and troubleshooting.

How we use information

  • To provide and operate the App's features.
  • To keep the service secure, prevent abuse and troubleshoot problems.
  • To respond to support requests you send us.

We do not sell personal information, use it for advertising, or share it with data brokers.

Sharing

We share information only with service providers that host or operate the App's infrastructure on our behalf under confidentiality obligations, when required by law, or to protect the rights, safety and security of our users and systems.

Security

All data sent between the App and our servers is encrypted in transit with TLS. Servers are hardened, patched automatically, monitored, and protected against brute-force login attempts.

Retention

Account data is kept while your account is active. Precise-location readings are used for live checks and kept no longer than 30 days. Weather reports are kept to improve forecasting unless you ask us to delete them. Server logs are kept up to 90 days.

Your choices and rights

You can access, correct or delete your information at any time — see Account & Data Deletion. Depending on where you live (for example California or the EU/UK), you may have additional rights; contact us to exercise them.

Children

The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We will post any changes to this policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date above.
