Terms of use

1. What Oro pavojus is

Oro pavojus (oropavojus.lt) is an unofficial, supplementary source of information about air threats in Lithuania. It is not an official warning system. It does not replace sirens, LT-Alert messages or instructions from the authorities. When you receive an official alert or hear sirens, follow the official instructions – even if the map looks calm. In immediate danger, call 112.

We show the official alert level automatically from LT-Alert messages as LRT reposts them, and always name the source it was taken from. It may be late or inaccurate.

2. No guarantees

• We do not guarantee that the information is accurate, complete or timely, or that the service will run without interruption.
• Aircraft, threats in Ukraine, alerts in Poland, air quality, gamma background and news come from third parties, and drone and shelter reports come from residents. They may contain errors or delays.
• Air quality and gamma background readings are for information only and are not a safety assessment. Follow the official recommendations.
• We do not show how long a threat will take to reach a specific place, and we do not assess whether a place is safe.

3. Account

• You can create an account if you are at least 14 years old. You can sign in with an email and password or with a Google account.
• You are responsible for keeping your account secure. Do not share your sign-in details.

4. Your reports

• Drone and shelter reports must be truthful and based on what you saw or heard yourself.
• It is forbidden to knowingly submit false reports, create automated or fake accounts, disrupt the service or try to get around its protections.
• By submitting a report you allow us to process it and show it to other users in aggregated form, as described in the privacy policy.
• You can withdraw a drone report within 30 minutes and delete a shelter report within 24 hours of submitting it.
• Reports are assessed automatically, so not every report is shown to others or on the map. The privacy policy explains how this works.

5. Moderation and blocking

The site administrator can delete reports, and some shelter comments may be held for review before they appear. Reports from accounts that break these terms may not be shown to others.

If an account is used in breach of these terms, the administrator can delete it and block sign-in and sign-up with its email address and from the networks it was used from. A network block can also affect other people on the same network. A blocked person can still browse the site. Every administrator action is logged.

6. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damage caused by relying on information in the service or by the service being unavailable. Make decisions about your safety based on official instructions.

7. Data sources

Some content belongs to third parties and is used under their licences. Sources and attributions are listed on the sources page.

8. Governing law and changes

These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Lithuania. We will announce material changes to the terms in the app. Send questions to info@oropavojus.lt.
