Terms of Service

Effective: 2026-01-01

1. Service description

StormSight is a hail event detection and verification system operated by the Oklahoma Roofing Contractors Association (ORCA) for the use of its contractor members. The service ingests public weather data, fuses it through a documented confidence-scoring algorithm, and presents events with full evidence trails.

2. Not a forecast service

StormSight does NOT produce weather forecasts. We present NOAA/NWS/SPC forecasts verbatim. We do NOT predict hail in the 0-60 minute window. We DETECT hail events that have occurred. Severe weather warnings and watches in StormSight come from the National Weather Service via their public API.

3. Reliance disclaimer

StormSight is a supplement to, not a replacement for, official NOAA and NWS warnings. Decisions about life-safety, property protection, or canvassing dispatch are the responsibility of the member. ORCA and StormSight disclaim all liability for consequential damages, including missed events (false negatives) and phantom events (false positives). The confidence score is provided for informational purposes and is not a warranty of any kind.

4. Acceptable use

You may use StormSight for your legitimate roofing-contractor business purposes. You may not: scrape the system at rates exceeding 10 requests/second; share your credentials; redistribute canvassing lists or PDF reports outside your immediate business; or use the service in any unlawful manner.

5. Data sources

See the data sources page for a complete disclosure of the public and licensed data inputs.

6. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be communicated by email at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
