Terms of Use

The plain-English terms for using Dreich. By downloading or using the app, you agree to these terms and to Apple’s standard app licence.

Last updated 14 June 2026

Your licence to use Dreich

Dreich is made by Mike Greig, a sole trader in the United Kingdom. It is licensed to you, not sold. Your use of Dreich is governed by Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User Licence Agreement (the “Apple Standard EULA”), and these terms sit alongside it. Where these terms add detail specific to Dreich, they apply together with the Apple Standard EULA.

Subscriptions and the free trial

Some features require Dreich Premium, an auto-renewing subscription:

Pricing: £2.99 per month, or £19.99 per year as a Founding Member. Prices may vary by region and may change in future, with notice.
Free trial: where offered, Dreich Premium starts with a 7-day (one week) free trial. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, it automatically converts to a paid subscription.
Billing & renewal: payment is charged to your Apple ID. The subscription renews automatically at the end of each period unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours beforehand.
Managing or cancelling: you can view, manage, or cancel your subscription any time in the App Store — Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep access until the current period ends.

Payments, refunds, and subscription management are handled by Apple under your App Store account and Apple’s terms.

What Dreich is — and isn’t

Dreich provides weather information from Apple WeatherKit, presented with a Scottish voice. Features such as the Dreich Score, the midge forecast, and hill-walking and washing guidance are interpretive aids for everyday planning, offered in good faith and “as is”.

Dreich is not a substitute for official mountain weather forecasts, mountain rescue, or any safety or emergency service. Always check official sources and use your own judgement before heading to the hills or making any safety-critical decision. Forecasts can be wrong — that’s rather the point of the app.

Acceptable use

Dreich is for your personal, lawful use. Please don’t misuse it, attempt to break or interfere with it, reverse-engineer it except where the law expressly allows, or resell or redistribute it.

Our content

The Dreich name, design, wordmark, the Dreich Score, the written phrases, and the look and feel of the app are owned by Mike Greig and protected by law. Using the app doesn’t transfer any of those rights to you.

Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Dreich is provided without warranties of any kind, and we are not liable for any loss arising from reliance on the app, including any weather, midge, or activity guidance. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Scotland, and disputes will be subject to the courts of Scotland, unless the law where you live requires otherwise.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms from time to time; we’ll change the date above when we do. Questions? Email support@getdreich.com.
