We may use your information to inform you of other products or services available from Overwatch Aviation and its affiliates, with your consent where required.

We may share data with trusted partners and service providers (e.g., HubSpot for form management and CRM, Dropbox for secure file storage and sharing, DroneDeploy for mapping and data processing, Google Analytics for site usage insights, payment processors, or FAA-certified subcontractors for drone flights) to perform services like booking, payment processing, data storage, or analytics. These partners are bound by confidentiality agreements and must comply with SHIELD Act requirements, as outlined in the Drone Services Addendum, Section 11.2. We may disclose information as required by law, to respond to legal processes, or to protect our rights, property, or user safety. Aggregated or de-identified data may be shared for business purposes without restriction.

We use trusted providers like AWS or Dropbox with independent security certifications. When personal information (e.g., credit card numbers) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected via Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. While we strive to protect your information, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed 100% secure. You acknowledge that security and privacy limitations exist beyond our control.
