GDPR
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”), effective as of May 25, 2018, European Union data subjects are entitled to certain specific rights with respect to processing of their personal data.
Under the GDPR, in certain circumstances, you have the right to:
- Request access to your personal information
- Request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information
- Request that your personal information be erased
- Object to the processing of your personal information, including processing for direct marketing purposes
- Request that the processing of your personal information be restricted

- Make a complaint to an EU Data Protection Authority where you believe that we have not complied with our obligations under this Privacy Policy or applicable European data protection law (including the GDPR)
- We will not transfer your personal information to third parties located outside of the EEA without taking steps to ensure adequate protection under the GDPR. If a third party is located in a country not recognized by the EU Commission as providing an adequate level of protection, we will use appropriate measures, such as entering into standard contractual clauses, approved by the EU Commission, to protect your personal information.

Use of Personal Information and Log Data
We may use your Personal Information to contact you with newsletters, marketing or promotional materials, and other information that we think would be potentially useful to you. We may share your Personal Information with third parties in the UAS or related industries for the purpose of contacting you with newsletters, marketing, or promotional material that we think would be potentially useful to you. We may use your Personal Information and Log Data to facilitate social media sharing, chat communications, and credit card payments that you authorize.
We will use your Log Data to help us improve the Sites. We may aggregate your log data with other users’ Log Data to provide general insights on drone operation to drone manufacturers, third-party partners, law enforcement agencies or the FAA.
