PrivacyPolicy

Last Updated: 07-12-2025

This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information when you use our website, which allows users to search a private airport database by city name, ICAO code, and other airport-related criteria. The service is primarily designed for flight simulation enthusiasts and is offered free of charge. The frontend codebase is open-source and publicly available on GitHub, while the database and backend infrastructure remain private. By accessing or using this website, you agree to the terms described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect, store, or process any personally identifiable information (PII) from users. Specifically:

• We do not require or offer user registration.
• We do not collect names, emails, phone numbers, or any other profile information.
• We do not log or associate search queries with user identities.

Your use of the website is completely anonymous.

2. Information Automatically Processed

To deliver core functionality, the website may temporarily process standard technical information such as:

• Browser type and version
• Device type
• Basic server logs necessary for security and performance (e.g., IP address* only for transient system-level operations)
• Such data, if processed, is retained only momentarily in volatile logs and is not used to identify individuals or create user profiles.

We do not use cookies for tracking, marketing, or analytics purposes.

3. Search Queries

When you access the search feature—by city name, ICAO code, or any other filter—we process your query solely to return relevant airport information from our private database.

• Search queries are not stored, profiled, or linked to any user.
• Queries are processed in real time and discarded immediately afterward.

4. Open-Source Code

The frontend portion of this project is open-source and available on GitHub. However:

• The open-source code contains no user-tracking mechanisms
• The private database and backend systems are not part of the public repository

Users may inspect the source code to understand how the interface handles data.

5. Third-Party Services

As of now, we do not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising networks, or tracking tools. If any external service is introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

6. Data Sharing

Since we do not collect user data, we do not share, sell, or disclose user information to third parties.

7. Security

Even though we do not store user data, we maintain industry-standard security practices to ensure the integrity and availability of our service. This includes protecting our private airport database and backend infrastructure against unauthorized access.

8. Children’s Privacy

This website is not directed toward children under 13 years of age. However, as no identifiable data is collected, there are no additional risks for minors accessing the site.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our service or legal obligations. The “Last Updated” date at the top of the document will always indicate the most recent version. Your continued use of the website constitutes acceptance of any revised terms.
