Terms of Sale

Montana Property Reports, LLC · Version 2026-09-13-7day · Effective September 13, 2026

These are the terms you agree to when you buy a Montana Snow Report season pass. The core terms apply to every product Montana Property Reports, LLC sells; Schedule D describes this one. The refund policy and the disclaimer form part of these terms. Applies to purchases made after this version is published.

Core terms

1. Who you are buying from

Montana Property Reports, LLC is a Montana limited liability company located in Livingston, Montana, with its mailing address at PO Box 53, Pray, Montana 59065 ("we", "us", "our"). These terms are an agreement between you and Montana Property Reports, LLC. We are independent. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of the State of Montana, any of its agencies, or any federal agency whose public records these reports draw on.

2. What you are buying

You are buying the information product or access described in the schedule for the site you bought from: for a report, the gathering, organization and analysis of public records for one property, delivered as a report; for a season pass, alerts and access for a stated season. You are not buying the underlying records, which are public, and you are not buying a guarantee about a property, a road, a slope or a result. What each product covers, and what it cannot settle, is set out in its schedule below and on that site's disclaimer page, which forms part of these terms.

3. Delivery

Each schedule states that product's delivery or access commitment: how a report is delivered, or the day a pass's access opens. If we fail to deliver or to open access within the stated window, you are entitled to a full refund whether or not you ask for one. Delivery estimates are not guarantees of timing; the commitment that carries a refund is the one written in the schedule.

4. Price, payment and subscriptions

Prices are shown on each site before purchase and are charged in US dollars through Stripe. We do not see or store your full card number.

Where a product renews, the site says so before you pay: the amount, the interval, the first renewal date and how to cancel. Renewing products are billed in advance and renew automatically until you cancel; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and partial periods are not pro-rated. We will tell you before any price change applies to your renewal. One-time reports and season passes do not renew; a new season means a new purchase.

Prices may change. A change never affects a purchase already completed.

5. Refunds

Seven-day satisfaction refunds. Only the product types actually offered on the site you bought from apply. A reference to renewal payments does not create automatic renewal for a one-time report or a nonrenewing pass.

If a purchase is not useful to you, request a full refund of the applicable payment within the window below. No explanation is required. Downloading a report, viewing content, or using included features during the window does not by itself disqualify you.

For one-time reports, request a refund within seven calendar days after the report is first delivered or made available to you. For initial memberships and seasonal passes, request a refund within seven calendar days after the purchased access or benefits become available; the window does not begin before the purchased service is available. Each schedule states when that is.

Each renewal payment has its own seven-calendar-day window beginning on the later of the renewal charge date and the date access for that renewed period becomes available. Access remaining from an earlier paid period does not start the new period's refund window early.

Submit your request through the site's published contact channel, or email the address in section 13, with enough information to identify the purchase. The deadline is 11:59 p.m. Mountain Time on the seventh calendar day after the triggering date. A request received by that deadline qualifies even if processing occurs later.

Refunds go to the original payment method unless another method is legally required or agreed; bank processing times can vary. Canceling future renewal and requesting a refund are separate actions. You may request either or both, and we will confirm the actions taken.

After the satisfaction window, we do not promise discretionary change-of-mind refunds or prorated refunds for an unused portion of a billing period. You may still cancel future subscription renewals. This does not affect refunds or other remedies required by applicable law.

Failure to deliver as promised, duplicate or unauthorized charges, materially misdescribed products, and other legally protected claims are not extinguished by this seven-day deadline. Any more favorable express delivery or refund promise made for your purchase also applies.

6. What these reports are not

No report we sell is:

• legal advice, or a title opinion, or title research
• engineering, geotechnical or hydrogeologic certification
• land surveying, or any determination of a boundary
• an appraisal or an opinion of value by a licensed appraiser
• a permit, an approval, or a determination by any government body
• a guarantee that a property can or cannot be built on, drilled on, insured, or financed

Mapped is not determined. Outside a mapped high-risk flood area is not the same as no flood risk. A mapped wetland is not a jurisdictional delineation. A road on a map is not legal access. A modeled wildfire figure is not an assessment of your house.

Decisions with money attached, buying land, drilling a well, extending credit, starting construction, should involve a licensed professional and the responsible county office. These reports are built to make that conversation better informed, not to replace it.

7. Accuracy and the limits of the source data

We do not create the underlying records and cannot warrant their accuracy or completeness. Government datasets carry their own scale limits and their own lag, and each site's sources page states them. Where the record is thin, our reports say so and lower their stated confidence. We do not fill gaps with invented text. If you believe a figure is wrong, tell us: we would rather correct it than defend it.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• scrape, bulk download, or systematically extract our reports or the database behind them
• resell or redistribute reports as your own product, or remove our attribution
• present our analysis as a certified professional opinion or as your own professional work
• use a report to misrepresent a property to a buyer, a lender or a regulator
• circumvent payment, share credentials, or reach paid analysis you have not bought

Sharing a report with the parties to a specific transaction, your client, their lender, their attorney, a contractor quoting the work, is expected and permitted.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent the law allows, our total liability arising out of a report or your use of these services is limited to the amount you paid us for it, and for subscriptions, to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages, including lost profits, a failed transaction, a dry hole, drilling or construction costs, or a change in property value.

This is a cap, not an escape. It reflects what the product honestly is: we charge tens of dollars to organize public records, and we cannot underwrite a land purchase, a drilling program or a building project.

The services are provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, except as stated in section 10.

10. Rights we do not limit

Nothing in these terms limits or waives:

• any liability for fraud, willful injury, or a willful or negligent violation of law
• your rights under the Montana Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Act
• any other right that cannot be waived by agreement under Montana law

If any part of these terms is held unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.

11. Changes

We may change the services and these terms. A material change is reflected in the effective date above and applies to purchases made after that date; it does not change the terms of a purchase already completed, whose version is recorded with the purchase. A report you have already bought stays available and renders as it did when you bought it, with its own data vintage stamp.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Montana, without regard to its conflict of law rules.

13. Contact

Schedule D: Montana Snow Report

Products. Snow Pro season pass, $29, one time. Each pass covers one season, November 1 to April 30, and does not renew; a new season means a new pass. The Business season pass ($99, alerts for up to ten phones plus a Monday snowpack note) is not on sale until those features are live; the site says so.

What it covers. Alerts chosen by the buyer from the site's mountain passes, SNOTEL stations, basins and avalanche zones: a pass's winter travel impact reaching a chosen level, new snow at a station, forecast snow at a place, a basin crossing a percent-of-median line or reaching its peak or melt-out, an avalanche warning issued for a zone, and a morning brief. Alerts are sent by email. Text alerts to the buyer's own phone are added when carrier registration clears; a phone receives texts only after its owner opts in on the site, and buying a pass does not opt in anyone else's phone.

Access and delivery. Alert set-up opens on the site before the season begins, and the buyer is told by email at the address given at purchase on the day it does. That day is when purchased access becomes available, and the seven-day satisfaction window of section 5 runs from it. If set-up has not opened by the first day of the season, the buyer is entitled to a full refund whether or not they ask. Once an alert is set, messages are normally sent within about twenty minutes of the underlying data changing, outside quiet hours (10 pm to 5 am Mountain, except severe conditions and avalanche warnings), with at most six messages a day, through third-party carriers and email providers we do not control; delivery is not guaranteed.

What it cannot settle. Every alert repeats a figure published by the National Weather Service, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Montana Department of Transportation, the U.S. Geological Survey or an avalanche center, or a score this site derives from them and explains. An alert is not an official warning, weather forecast, road report or avalanche forecast, and a missed, delayed or garbled message is not a basis for a safety decision. Rely on the National Weather Service, the issuing avalanche center and Montana 511 for safety decisions.

Free tier. The site, one email alert and the morning brief are free and need no account.
