Content, corrections and liability
Rinalds Azins is responsible for the content of this site. The verdicts, snow depths, avalanche levels and season dates are computed by a pipeline from named open sources, and the methodology page lists every one of them with its licence. We check what we publish and we date it, but snow moves faster than any daily rebuild: nothing here is a guarantee, and nothing here replaces the official avalanche bulletin or a resort's own announcement.
Found something wrong? Write to [email protected] and it gets fixed in the next build. How the site earns money, and how that is kept away from the numbers, is set out on the about page; what we do with your data is on the privacy page.
Pages we link to are other people's work and we do not control what they publish. This imprint is written with section 5 DDG in Germany, section 5 ECG and section 25 MedienG in Austria, and article 3(1)(s) UWG in Switzerland in mind. It is our honest disclosure, not a legal opinion that every obligation in every country is covered.
