Privacy policy
Effective date: September 29, 2026
Hail on Date (hailondate.com) sells a PDF of NOAA hail records for one address and one date. It is a trading name of CHM Capital Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 17466915, registered office 59-60 Russell Square, London WC1B 4HP, which is responsible for your data. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. We keep the footprint small.
What we collect
- The address and date you check. We send the address to the US Census Bureau geocoder (and, if Census cannot match it, to OpenStreetMap's Photon geocoder) to find its coordinates, and we query NOAA with the coordinates and date. Free checks are not stored with your name or email.
- Typing suggestions. As you type an address, your browser sends the partial text to Photon (photon.komoot.io) to suggest matches. Photon is operated by komoot and receives your IP address as any website does.
- Your email address and the optional name you ask us to print on the report, so we can deliver the PDF and your receipt.
- Payment. Card payments are handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card number, CVC or expiry. We receive confirmation that payment succeeded and a limited record (such as a transaction ID and the last four digits) for accounting and refunds.
Analytics without cookies
We count visits with Fathom Analytics, which sets no cookies, collects no personal data and does not track you across sites or devices. We cannot use it to identify you, so there is no cookie banner.
We do not sell or share your personal information
We do not sell your personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA. We honor the Global Privacy Control signal as an opt-out request, although there is nothing to opt out of.
How we use it
- To build and deliver the report you ordered, and email it to you.
- To handle refunds and answer support requests.
- To keep the records that accounting and fraud prevention require.
We do not send marketing email unless you ask for it.
How long we keep it
We keep the order (address, date, email, optional name and the PDF) so you can download the report again and so we can help if something goes wrong, and for as long as tax and accounting law requires. You can ask us to delete it sooner, subject to the records we must keep. Stripe keeps payment records under its own policy.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, including the US states with privacy laws, the UK and the EU, you can ask to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, or object to how we use it. Email [email protected] and we will respond within the time the law allows. We will not treat you differently for asking. In the UK you can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
Where it is processed
Our servers are in the United Kingdom. Stripe, Fathom, our email provider and the geocoders may process data in the United States and elsewhere, under their own safeguards.
Children
This service is for adults and is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, email us and we will delete it.
Security
Everything is sent over HTTPS, and card data goes straight to Stripe. We hold as little personal data as the service needs.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the effective date above.
