      Hi,

      I'm trying to build an application that going to make an API call to windy API but as I see windy term and condition on section 10.2.2 saying that the weather data should not be store, extract and modify. In order to reduce the API call to windy API, is it posible to cache or store the weather data in some period of time for example store weather data and distribute those data to a user in the same area ?

      Best Regards,
      Patatip

        No. Under Windy’s standard API terms, you cannot store, cache, or redistribute weather data (even to users in the same area). Only very short-lived, technical in-memory caching (seconds/minutes for request handling) is typically acceptable. For caching or redistribution, you need a separate licensed agreement with Windy or a different weather data provider that allows it.
