Dither Weather — End User License Agreement

Version 1.1 · Effective 16 September 2026 · Dither Weather 1.0.1

By installing or using Dither Weather ("the Software"), you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.

The Software is licensed, not sold. It is published by Portal And Co LLC ("we", "us").

1. License grant

On purchase you get a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the Software for your own personal or internal business purposes, on any number of devices that you own or control. One purchase covers you as an individual.

Buy it once, keep it. There is no subscription, no account, and no license key to lose.

2. What you may not do

You may not:

• Redistribute the Software — sell, rent, lease, lend, publish, upload, share, sublicense, or otherwise make it available to anyone else, whether or not for payment. This includes reuploading the installer or the unpacked application files to any site, mirror, tracker, or archive.
• Repackage or rebrand it, or bundle it into another product.
• Remove, obscure, or alter any attribution, credit, copyright, or license notice — including the weather-data attributions required by our own data providers (see section 5).
• Use our backend services outside the Software. The Software talks to a weather relay service we operate. That service is provided solely to support the Software. Calling it directly, from your own software, or in any automated or high-volume way, is not permitted.

3. Reverse engineering

Except to the extent the following is prohibited by law in your jurisdiction, you may not decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Software, or attempt to derive its source code, in order to build a competing or derivative product or to circumvent section 2.

Note that this is a limited restriction. The Software's user interface is built with web technologies and its front-end source is inherently readable — we make no claim otherwise, and we do not restrict you from inspecting the Software for your own study, interoperability, security research, or curiosity. Rights you have under applicable law (for example, decompilation for interoperability under EU Directive 2009/24/EC, or equivalent local law) are not affected by this section.

4. Weather information — no accuracy guarantee

The Software is a decorative desktop widget, not a safety tool.

Weather data, forecasts, severe-weather alerts, and any derived indicators shown by the Software are supplied by third-party providers, are delivered on a best-effort basis, may be delayed, incomplete, approximated, or wrong, and may fail to appear at all.

Do not rely on the Software for any decision affecting safety, health, property, travel, or livelihood. For severe weather, always consult your official national weather service directly. Alert coverage depends on the data providers and varies by country, and is not a substitute for an official warning system or emergency alerting.

5. Third-party data and attribution

The Software displays data provided under the following terms, and those attributions must remain visible:

• Weather data from Apple Weather — https://weatherkit.apple.com/legal-attribution/
• Forecast fallback from MET Norway (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), licensed CC BY 4.0
• Alerts from the US National Weather Service (NWS) (public domain) and, outside the United States, official warnings relayed by Apple Weather
• Earthquake data from the US Geological Survey (USGS) (public domain)
• Location search data © OpenStreetMap contributors, via Photon
• Place, climate and coastline data from GeoNames and Köppen-Geiger (CC BY 4.0) and Natural Earth (public domain)

Your use of that data is additionally subject to those providers' own terms. Third-party components included in the Software remain under their respective licenses.

6. Privacy

The Software has no account system, no analytics, and no tracking. A location you search or select is sent to the weather and geocoding providers above only in order to return your forecast. Your settings are stored locally on your own device. We collect no personal data and sell nothing.

7. Updates

We may, but are not obliged to, release updates. Updates are provided under this same Agreement unless they are accompanied by different terms.

8. No warranty

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the weather services it depends on will remain available.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR IT. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL.

Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of sections 8 and 9 may not apply to you.

10. Consumer rights

If you are a consumer, you may have statutory rights that this Agreement cannot override, including rights relating to faulty digital content. This Agreement does not affect those rights. Refunds are handled by the store you bought from under that store's refund policy: Apple for the Mac App Store, Microsoft for the Microsoft Store. For a copy downloaded directly from ditherweather.com, write to hello@ditherweather.com.

10a. Copies obtained from the Mac App Store

If you obtained the Software from Apple's Mac App Store, the following terms also apply to that copy, as Apple requires of every third-party license:

• Acknowledgement. This Agreement is between you and Portal And Co LLC only, not Apple. Portal And Co LLC, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Software and its content.
• Scope of license. The license in section 1 is non-transferable and covers use of the Software on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the App Store Terms of Service, except that the Software may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
• Maintenance and support. Portal And Co LLC is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the Software, as specified in this Agreement or as required by applicable law. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the Software.
• Warranty. Portal And Co LLC is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. In the event of any failure of the Software to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Software to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Software, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty are Portal And Co LLC's sole responsibility.
• Product claims. Portal And Co LLC, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the Software or your possession and/or use of it, including (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the Software fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
• Intellectual property. In the event of any third-party claim that the Software or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, Portal And Co LLC, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of the claim.
• Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Developer contact. Portal And Co LLC, 8605 Santa Monica Blvd #294636, West Hollywood, CA 90069, United States · hello@ditherweather.com — for any questions, complaints or claims about the Software.
• Third-party terms. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms when using the Software, including the terms of the data providers named in section 5.
• Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and upon your acceptance of it Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this Agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary.

If you obtained the Software from the Microsoft Store, the Microsoft Store terms apply to the purchase itself. In every case sections 4 (weather information), 8 (no warranty) and 9 (limitation of liability) describe the Software and apply to your use of it.

11. Termination

This license ends automatically if you materially breach it — in particular section 2. On termination you must stop using the Software and delete your copies. Sections 4, 5, 8, 9, and 12 survive.

12. Governing law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
