1. Acceptance of terms
By creating a FlightWeatherWatch account, checking the acceptance box, or using the service, you agree to these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and the aviation disclaimer above. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use FlightWeatherWatch. You are responsible for ensuring your use of the service is lawful where you are located.
3. Your account and security
You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. We may suspend accounts that appear compromised.
4. What FlightWeatherWatch is — and is not
FlightWeatherWatch generates AI-assisted, advisory route weather briefings and planning aids: weather chart analysis, TFR awareness, personal-minimums comparisons, and GO / CONDITIONAL GO / NO-GO style analysis.
It is an advisory planning aid only. It is NOT an official FAA, NOAA, or Flight Service weather briefing, and it does not satisfy any regulatory requirement to obtain one. It does not replace NOTAM or TFR checks through official sources, air traffic control, applicable regulations, or the judgment of the pilot in command.
5. No guarantee of accuracy, completeness, or availability
We do not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, timeliness, or availability of anything the service produces, including: weather data and charts, TFR or NOTAM coverage, AI-generated analysis and verdicts, density altitude or wind calculations, or any other output. Weather products can be stale, upstream data sources (FAA, NOAA, AWC, and others) can be delayed or unavailable, TFRs can be issued or amended at any moment after a briefing is generated, and AI-generated analysis can be wrong, incomplete, or misleading even when the underlying data is correct.
6. Pilot in command responsibility
You remain solely responsible for all flight planning and operational decisions. The pilot in command is the final authority as to the operation of the aircraft. You must independently verify all safety-relevant information — weather, TFRs, NOTAMs, airport conditions, fuel, performance, and airspace — through official sources before every flight, and obtain an official briefing where required.
7. TFR and NOTAM verification
TFR and NOTAM information shown by the service is best-effort awareness only, may be incomplete or out of date, and must always be independently verified through official FAA sources (e.g. tfr.faa.gov, NOTAM search, Flight Service) immediately before flight.
8. Personal minimums
Personal-minimums profiles are user-provided planning thresholds. They are not safety guarantees, not regulatory minimums, and not a substitute for training, currency, or conservative judgment.
9. AI-generated content limitations
Briefings are generated with the assistance of large language models. AI output can contain errors, omissions, and plausible-sounding but incorrect statements. Verdicts such as GO / CONDITIONAL GO / NO-GO are advisory framing, not instructions, clearances, or professional advice.
10. Data sources and outages
The service depends on third-party data sources and APIs (including FAA, NOAA/NWS, and the Aviation Weather Center) and third-party infrastructure. Outages, rate limits, or changes in those services can degrade or interrupt briefings, in whole or in part, without notice.
11. Subscriptions and payment
Paid plans are billed monthly through Stripe at the prices shown in the app, and include a monthly allowance of briefing credits. Credits reset each billing period, do not roll over, and have no cash value. Plan changes take effect per the billing flow shown at the time of the change (upgrades may be prorated; downgrades may apply at the end of the period). Taxes may apply.
12. Cancellation
You can cancel any time through the billing portal. Paid access continues until the end of the current billing period, after which the account reverts to the free tier. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable.
13. No emergency use
The service must not be used in an emergency or as an in-flight decision tool. In an emergency, use official channels — ATC, Flight Service, and emergency services.
14. Prohibited uses
You may not: use the service as a sole or primary source for flight decisions; resell or redistribute briefings as official products; probe, scrape, overload, or interfere with the service; attempt to bypass usage limits or billing; use the service to violate law or regulation; or reverse engineer non-public parts of the service.
15. Intellectual property
The service, its design, and its software are the property of FlightWeatherWatch's owner(s) or its licensors. Government weather and aeronautical data remain public data of their respective sources. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the service for your own flight planning.
16. Your content
You retain rights to the information you enter (routes, waypoints, minimums profiles). You grant us a license to process and store it to operate the service — including generating briefings and maintaining your history.
17. Third-party services
The service is built on third-party providers, including AWS (hosting), Vercel (web hosting), Stripe (payments), Anthropic (AI analysis), and FAA/NOAA/AWC data services. Their terms and privacy practices apply to their processing.
18. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
19. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FLIGHTWEATHERWATCH, ITS OWNER(S), OPERATOR(S), SERVICE PROVIDERS, LICENSORS, CONTRACTORS, AND PERSONNEL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR USE; OR ANY LOSS, INJURY, DAMAGE, CLAIM, OR COST ARISING FROM FLIGHT OPERATIONS, FLIGHT PLANNING, WEATHER DECISIONS, AIRSPACE DECISIONS, TFR/NOTAM DECISIONS, OR RELIANCE ON SERVICE OUTPUT.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO USE THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (B) $100.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
20. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless FlightWeatherWatch, its owner(s), operator(s), service providers, licensors, contractors, and personnel from claims arising out of your use of the service, your flight operations, or your violation of these terms.
21. Availability; changes; termination
The service is provided without any uptime commitment or SLA. We may change, suspend, or discontinue features at any time, and may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. We may update these terms; material changes will require re-acceptance in the app.
22. Governing law; venue
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to FlightWeatherWatch, the service, your account, your subscription, or your use of the service are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
Subject to any mandatory law that provides otherwise, you agree that the state and federal courts located in California will have jurisdiction and venue for disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the service. The specific county and venue should be confirmed with qualified counsel before public launch.
Before filing a claim, you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days. This informal-resolution requirement does not prevent either party from seeking urgent injunctive or equitable relief where appropriate.
23. Contact
For support, account, billing, legal, or safety-related questions, contact: support@flightweatherwatch.com
For legal notices, contact: legal@flightweatherwatch.com
We may update the contact method from time to time within the app or on the website.
24. Legal document versions and re-acceptance
These Terms are effective as of Version 2026-07-03-v2. We may update these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or the aviation disclaimer from time to time. If we make material changes, we may require you to review and accept the updated terms before continuing to use the service.
Your continued use of FlightWeatherWatch after updated terms become effective means you accept the updated terms, except where we require an affirmative re-acceptance in the application.
This document is a draft prepared for the private preview. It has not been reviewed by an attorney and must be reviewed by qualified counsel before public launch. FlightWeatherWatch is currently a product/service name, not a formed legal entity — the legal structure, governing law, venue, and liability language should all be reviewed by counsel before public launch.
