Privacy Policy

Small Aviation Tools develops mobile applications designed to assist pilots and aviation enthusiasts. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use our applications available on the Apple App Store.

Information We Collect

Our apps are designed to collect as little personal information as possible. Most information used by the apps is stored locally on your device.

Information You Provide

Some apps allow you to enter and store information within the app, such as:

  • Aircraft profiles
  • Flight times or operational notes
  • User preferences and settings
  • Other aviation-related information entered by you

This information is stored locally on your device and is used only to provide the functionality of the app. None of this data is sent to us.

Location Information

Some of our apps may request access to your device’s location through the system services provided by Apple Inc..

Location data may be used for features such as:

  • Determining ground speed
  • Determining track
  • Determining magnetic variation, which depends on latitude and longitude
  • Determining heading (uses the device’s magnetometer)

Location information is processed on your device and is not stored by us or transmitted to our servers.

You can enable or disable location access at any time through your device settings. All relevant apps still work in a manual mode.

Automatically Collected Information

Apple may provide developers with limited diagnostic information, such as:

  • Crash reports
  • App performance data

This information helps us identify technical issues and improve the reliability of our apps. It does not typically identify individual users.

How We Use Information

Information handled by our apps may be used to:

  • Provide the functionality of the application
  • Store and display user-entered aviation data

We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties.

Payments

All purchases are processed by Apple through the Apple App Store. We do not collect or store payment information such as credit card numbers.

Data Storage

Most data created or entered in our apps is stored locally on your device.

If an app supports export, backup, or synchronization features, the data may be stored in services chosen by you (such as iCloud). We do not maintain central databases containing user information unless explicitly described within the app.

Third-Party Services

Our apps may rely on services provided by Apple, including:

  • App Store purchase processing
  • Crash reporting and diagnostics
  • Optional cloud services such as iCloud

These services are governed by Apple’s own privacy policies.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information used within our apps. However, no electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Your Rights

If you are located in regions with data protection laws such as the European Union, you may have rights regarding your personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These rights may include access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information.

Because most information used by our apps is stored locally on your device, you can typically remove this data at any time by deleting the app from your device.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page.
