Terms

Terms of use for this site.

Short version: this site describes a snowpack model. It is not an avalanche forecast, and decisions in the mountains are yours.

Not an avalanche forecast or safety service

Everything Snowvy shows, on this site and in the app, is modelled from weather and terrain data. It can be wrong, incomplete or out of date. It is not an avalanche bulletin, a danger rating, a stability test or a navigation service, and it never says that terrain is safe. Always read the official avalanche bulletin for your region, check conditions yourself, carry the right equipment and get proper training. You are responsible for your own decisions and safety in the mountains.

Ski area information

Ski area names, runs, lifts and elevations come from OpenStreetMap through OpenSkiMap, © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL 1.0), processed by OpenSkiMap. They are what volunteers have mapped and may differ from official resort figures. We show no lift status, opening dates or resort snow reports. Resort names are used only to identify places; Snowvy is not affiliated with any resort.

The waitlist

Joining the waitlist is free and does not commit you to anything. It does not guarantee early access, a launch date or particular features. Our privacy notice explains how we handle your email.

Use of the site

You may read and link to this site freely. Please don't scrape it at a rate that disrupts it, or present its content as your own. The underlying ski area data is open under the ODbL; you can get it directly from OpenStreetMap and OpenSkiMap.

Liability

The site is provided as it is, without warranties. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses arising from using it or relying on it. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
