To Whom It May Concern,

I am the Deputy Chief Anchor of the i-CABLE News Limited which is a large-scale TV News broadcasting and media company in Hong Kong.

Our TV station will expand its free to air TV channel that targets millions of people in Hong Kong in April. We plan to have a new weather report program which includes different weather elements such as the meteorological chart, the hyetograph and the tropical cyclone track forecast. We find that your website i.e. windy.com matches with our plan and therefore, would like to know the following issues:
• If our company subscribes the premium version, could we get your permission to use all weather elements, charts, graphics and modify the countries’ names on the map on windy.com which helps enrich the weather report?
• Are there any restrictions or regulations to use the visualization on our TV channel, webpage and News APP?

Your valuable advice and authorization for us to use your contents will greatly enhance weather information to our viewers.

Yours faithfully,
Yoyo Li Man Yan

Hello,

My company (i-Cable News Limited) from Hong Kong is planning to start a weather program in April. I am just wondering whether we can get your permission to use the visualization and all the weather elements from windy.com according to the use of terms.

Thank you.

Hello @Ivo Can I use the Weather Map Widget on my business website for free, using the iframe you provide?

Korina

@ViberAir-Dev Hello, you can use it for non commercial purposes.

Is it possible to use footage from windy.com, specifically by taking a screenshot of the screen while using the browser and recording the screen itself, as material for a program? Also, if so, is it sufficient to simply include a "Source: windy.com" attribution?

@ta9-S Yes, if you provide a credit that images are from Windy.com and the logo is visible in these images/recordings, it is okay to use these materials.

Aloha Windy team,

I’m creating a jersey for Maui Paddling Hui, a canoe paddling organization in Hawaiʻi. Our paddlers regularly use Windy to check conditions for training and racing. The jersey concept shows wind flowing across and around the islands of Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi, Maui, and Kahoʻolawe.

We’re planning a run of about 200 jerseys. I’d like to use Windy screenshots as references to recreate and adapt the wind streamlines and color patterns as printed artwork. I saw your guidance about crediting Windy when using screenshots, but I wanted to ask specifically whether this kind of adaptation for jerseys is permitted.

If it is, what credit would you require on the jersey? I can share the reference images and proposed artwork for your review before printing.

Mahalo for your time and for a tool our paddling community uses so often.
