Terms of use
Effective date: 07.11.2026
1. General provisions
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern the use of the Airlytica mobile application (the “App”) for iOS devices.
The App is provided by Kacper Kalicki Tryhard Solutions, Wielogórska 72B/1, 59-220 Legnica, Poland, e-mail: airlytica@tryhard-solutions.app (the “Developer”).
By installing and using the App, you (“User”) agree to be bound by these Terms.
2. Description and features of the App
The App is designed to make it easy to check air quality in selected locations. It displays current and historical measurement data, provides a simplified air quality index, and shows charts of how pollutant levels change over time.
The purpose of the App is to help you assess daily conditions for staying outdoors, doing sports, and planning other activities.
In particular, the App:
- displays air quality data for selected locations and monitoring stations,
- presents data using maps, charts, indicators and widgets (including Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets),
- offers additional features as part of the Premium version.
The App may use your device’s location only with your explicit consent, for example to show your position on the map, find nearby stations or show data for where you are. Location is not required to use the App. How location and the coordinates of places you check are handled is described in the Privacy Policy.
3. Data sources
Data displayed in the App is obtained in particular from:
- the “Jakość Powietrza” (“Air Quality”) portal of the Chief Inspectorate of Environmental Protection in Poland (GIOŚ),
- APIs made available at powietrze.gios.gov.pl,
- for certain Premium features (e.g. school icons on the map) – from the ESA – Educational Anti-Smog Network project (for example, data from sensors installed near schools),
- the Google Air Quality API and Pollen API (Google Maps Platform) – air quality outside the GIOŚ network, forecasts and pollen, requested through the Developer’s server; some of this data is available only in the Premium version or within daily limits,
- sensor.community – a citizen network of low-cost air sensors,
- Apple Weather (WeatherKit) – weather data and weather alerts.
In the App, the source may be indicated as, for example, “GIOŚ – EKOINFONET”, “Data collected in the EKOINFONET GIOŚ system”, or as data provided under the ESA project.
The data includes, among others, measurements from automatic and manual monitoring stations and air quality indices, shared in accordance with the rules of the “Air Quality” portal and GIOŚ APIs, and for ESA data – in line with the ESA project’s data sharing rules.
The App shows the source next to the data, including the Apple Weather attribution and a link to other data sources. Data from Google, sensor.community and Apple is used under those providers’ terms.
Where possible, the App indicates the time the data was produced (measurement time) and whether the data shown is current or historical.
4. Processing and presentation of data
The App retrieves data from the sources listed in section 3 and then processes it in particular by:
- aggregating and averaging values over different time ranges,
- converting the data into a local air quality index used in the App,
- generating charts, maps, visualisations and additional indicators,
- presenting the data in a form different from that directly available from the source services.
In line with GIOŚ rules on the reuse of public sector information, the App explicitly informs that the data has been processed or modified – all calculations, visualisations and interpretations in the App are a processed form of the source data (GIOŚ, ESA and the other sources listed in section 3).
The way the data is presented (including colours, labels, indices) is the Developer’s own interpretation and may differ from the presentation used by the data providers.
5. Nature of the information
All information shown in the App is provided for information and illustration purposes only.
The data and visualisations displayed in the App do not constitute:
- medical advice,
- legal advice,
- an official interpretation by public authorities,
- a binding basis for legal or administrative decisions.
Any decisions you make based on the information provided by the App are made at your own risk. The App does not replace official announcements, warnings or recommendations issued by public authorities or relevant services.
6. Liability
According to the rules of the “Air Quality” portal, GIOŚ is not responsible for the content of public sector information after it has been processed by users who reuse that information, including this App.
This applies in particular to all recalculations, classifications, interpretations and visualisations of the data carried out by the App.
Similarly, the entities responsible for data made available under the ESA – Educational Anti-Smog Network project are not liable for the way such data is further processed, interpreted and presented in the App.
The same applies to data from Google, sensor.community and Apple Weather: the way it is processed and presented in the App is the Developer’s own.
The Developer makes reasonable efforts to ensure that the data is accurate and up to date, but:
- does not guarantee completeness, correctness or continuous availability of the data,
- is not liable for any errors in the source data provided by GIOŚ, ESA or other data providers,
- is not liable for any consequences of decisions made based on the information displayed in the App, including any direct or indirect damages resulting from the use of the App.
7. Data refresh frequency
Data from GIOŚ APIs is retrieved in accordance with the technical and usage limits set by GIOŚ (including maximum request frequency), in order not to overload GIOŚ systems.
For ESA data, the refresh frequency is adjusted to the project’s data sharing rules and technical capabilities.
Data from Google is requested through the Developer’s server, which keeps short-lived copies for an area so the same data is not requested again. Data from sensor.community and Apple Weather is retrieved within those services’ limits.
The effective refresh rate of data shown in the App (including widgets) may also be limited by iOS system behaviour, device settings and the availability of external services.
8. Widgets and Premium version
Certain features of the App, in particular widgets, are available only to Premium users.
The App offers three widget sizes: Small, Medium and Large, which display air quality information for a selected station.
Widgets present pollutant levels sorted from “worst” to “best” values for monitored parameters, so you can quickly see which pollutants have the strongest negative impact on air quality.
In the Premium version, Lock Screen widgets are also available. Widget data is refreshed automatically (typically on an hourly basis), subject to iOS refresh policies, system limitations and the behaviour of external APIs.
9. Prices and subscriptions
In-app purchases (subscriptions and lifetime access) are processed via the App Store and are governed by Apple’s terms and the Apple Media Services agreement.
The current prices of subscriptions and lifetime access are always shown in the App (or in the App Store) before you confirm a purchase. Prices may vary by country and currency and may change in the future.
Changes in price do not affect periods that have already been paid for – they remain valid until the end of the current billing period.
Purchasing a lifetime (one-time) license does not automatically cancel any active subscription. If you no longer wish to be billed for a subscription, you must cancel it yourself in your Apple ID account settings.
If the price of future subscription renewals changes, you may be notified in advance and will have the option to cancel renewal before the new price is charged, in accordance with App Store rules.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel renewal in your Apple ID account settings at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.
“Lifetime” access means access to the unlocked features of the App for an indefinite period of time; however:
- it does not guarantee that the App or its features will remain available or unchanged forever,
- the Developer may in the future decide to discontinue or remove the App from the App Store (for example, for technical, legal or business reasons).
Refunds for in-app purchases are handled in accordance with Apple’s policies. As a general rule, the Developer does not process payment-related claims outside the App Store system.
10. Technical requirements and acceptable use
To use the App, you need:
- a compatible iOS device and system version as specified in the App Store,
- an Internet connection,
- an active Apple ID account.
You must use the App in accordance with applicable law, these Terms and good practice.
In particular, you must not:
- attempt to interfere with or disrupt the App or the servers and networks used by the App,

The Developer may, in particular cases, decide to discontinue or remove the App from the App Store, for example for technical, business or legal reasons.
Discontinuation of the App may mean that no further updates, support or compatibility with future iOS versions will be provided, without prejudice to rights that you may have under Apple’s terms and applicable consumer law.
13. Changes to these Terms
The Developer may modify these Terms, in particular in case of:
- changes in the App’s functionality,
- changes in the pricing or payment model,
- changes in applicable law or regulatory requirements,
