How do "My Locations" work in weather?

大象传媒 Weather can give you tailored forecasts based on your favourite locations.

When you add a location, like your home town, we'll use it to give you the relevant local info. If you sign in to the 大象传媒 your locations will be available across all of your devices.

We call your stored locations "My Locations".

How do you store "My Locations"?

We store the locations you add in your 大象传媒 account. You can find out more about how we treat your data here.

We ask you to sign in to add locations because it's the easiest way to synchronise them across your devices and between our website and apps.

How do I add, remove or search for a location?

To add a location: Just hit the "Add" button next to the location. If you haven't already, we'll ask you to sign in.

You can save postcodes (for security reasons we will only store the first half) and places in the United Kingdom, Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man.

To remove a location: Open your list of locations by clicking on the location search box. Then click the cross next to the location you want to delete.

You can also remove any location you've added by clicking the cross next to it.

To search for locations: Type the location you want to find in the search box.

In some cases, you'll also have the option to "detect my location". For this to work, "Location Services" will need to be enabled in your internet browser or on your device.

How do recent searches work?

Recent searches show locations you've searched for but haven't added to your 大象传媒 account.

Because they're not saved to your 大象传媒 account, each one only appears in the part of the 大象传媒 - and on the specific device - where you searched for it.

You can delete your recent searches by choosing the "clear all" button.

What's my "Home" location?

This is the postcode you entered when you registered with the 大象传媒. To protect your privacy, we only use the first part of the postcode in your list of locations.

You can change your home postcode by visiting your 大象传媒 account settings.

You need to provide your home location when you register for a 大象传媒 account. You don't have to add any other locations.

Find out more about what info we ask for and why.

Can I still use "My Locations" if I turn off personalisation?

Yes, but if you turn off personalisation (which you can do in your 大象传媒 account settings) we won't save your recent searches on the website. And parts of the 大象传媒 that use a default location might not show the information you want straight away.

There's more info about personalisation here.
