App information and location
The app uses fixed Myrtle Beach-area coordinates or selected source locations. It does not request the device's precise location or create a user account. It can keep cached condition values, source metadata, and source preferences on the device.
Public and linked providers
Myrtle Beach information can come from public condition services, SafeBeachDay or GraphCDN-delivered resources, and webcam or video operators. When the app contacts a provider, that provider necessarily receives ordinary request information such as an IP address, time, and device/network headers under its own policy.
Web views and provider storage
Some condition, webcam, video, or source pages open in a persistent web view. Those outside pages may receive network and referrer information and may use cookies or other local website storage under their own policies. The app developer does not control those providers' content or retention.
Retention and your controls
Cached conditions and preferences remain on the device until they are replaced or the app is removed. Source-priority preferences can be reset in the app; this does not necessarily erase cached condition values. Outside providers retain request or web-view information under their own policies. The app does not maintain a developer-held account.
Website analytics
Myrtle Beach Companion's page on brentgaddis.com uses first-party, aggregate website analytics operated through Cloudflare. The site counts page views and allowlisted actions such as opening an App Store, support, or privacy link; it also keeps coarse source, country, device, browser, operating-system, engagement, performance, and reliability totals. It does not store raw event rows, visitor or session identities, IP or hashed-IP identifiers, cookie or local-storage visitor IDs, full user agents, full referrers or URLs, form contents, arbitrary text, or a person's raw click history. Country and source cells below five are suppressed, and aggregates are retained for up to 24 months. Cloudflare still processes request and network metadata as necessary to deliver and protect the site. These website measurements are separate from the app.
