Terms & Conditions

Effective June 11, 2026 · Applies to wxdecoder.com and its public API. By using wxdecoder you agree to these terms.

1. Education and situational awareness only

wxdecoder is an aviation weather education and situational-awareness tool. It is not an official weather briefing source and is not a substitute for an official weather briefing, approved flight-planning software, flight service, dispatch procedures, current FAA regulations, or pilot judgment. Decodes and summaries are educational aids. The pilot in command is solely responsible for every preflight decision. Always verify weather with official sources before flight.

2. Weather data

Live weather and airport data come from third-party public sources including NOAA/AviationWeather.gov. Data may be delayed, incomplete, incorrect, or unavailable, and decodes may contain errors. We make no guarantee of accuracy, timeliness, or availability.

3. Acceptable use

You may use the site and its public API for personal and reasonable non-commercial use. You agree not to abuse, overload, bulk-scrape, or resell the service, and not to use it in any unlawful way. We may rate-limit or block abusive traffic.

4. Disclaimer of warranties

wxdecoder is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, wxdecoder and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for any loss or damage arising from reliance on information on this site - including flight decisions. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the twelve months before the claim (currently $0).

6. Changes

We may update the service and these terms; material changes will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.

7. Governing law & contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to conflict of law rules. Questions: support@wxdecoder.com.
