Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using uvindex.now, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Service Description

uvindex.now provides free UV index data, weather information, sun protection recommendations, and educational content. UV data is sourced from the Open-Meteo API and is provided on an "as is" basis.

Not Medical Advice

The information on uvindex.now — including UV index readings, sunburn time estimates, SPF recommendations, and sun protection guidance — is for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not medical advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for consultation with a qualified dermatologist or healthcare professional.

Individual UV sensitivity varies based on skin type, medications, health conditions, altitude, surface reflection, and other factors that our tools cannot fully account for.

Data Accuracy

UV index data and weather forecasts are sourced from third-party providers (Open-Meteo) and are approximations. Actual UV conditions at your specific location may differ from our reported values. We make no guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data displayed on the site.

Affiliate Links

uvindex.now contains affiliate links to products on Amazon.com and potentially other retailers. When you click these links and make purchases, we may earn a commission. This does not affect the price you pay. Our product recommendations reflect genuine editorial assessment, not commission rates.

All original content, design, and code on uvindex.now is the property of the site operators. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without permission. UV data is provided by Open-Meteo under their open-source license.

Limitation of Liability

uvindex.now and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from the use or inability to use the service, including but not limited to damages from sunburn, skin damage, or any other harm related to UV exposure decisions based on information from this site.
