Privacy
Privacy policy
Sky Suite ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you use the Sky Suite platform, websites, and services (collectively, the "Service").
By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide
- Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, company name, and password when you create an account.
- Profile Information: Business details, certifications (e.g., FAA Part 107), service areas, profile photos, and equipment information.
- Payment Information: Billing address and payment method details. Payment card numbers are processed and stored by our payment processors and are never stored on our servers.
- Client and Contact Data: Information about your clients and contacts that you enter into the CRM, including names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses.
- Uploaded Content: Files, images, documents, survey data, deliverables, and other content you upload to the Service.
- Communications: Messages sent through the platform, support tickets, and feedback you provide.
1.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Usage Data: Pages visited, features used, actions taken, timestamps, and session duration.
- Device Information: Browser type, operating system, device type, and screen resolution.
- GPS and Location Data: If you enable location services, we may collect your device's GPS coordinates for features such as weather lookups, airspace checks, and service area mapping. Location data is only collected when you actively use location-dependent features.
- IP Address: Your IP address is collected for security, rate limiting, and general analytics purposes.
- Cookies and Similar Technologies: See Section 7 below.
1.3 Information from Third Parties
- Payment Processors: Transaction confirmation details from our payment processors.
- Public Data Sources: Business information from publicly available sources used to assist with lead generation and marketplace features, only when you actively use those features.
Google user data
Connecting Google is optional.
- Sign in with Google: If you sign in with Google we receive your name, email address, profile photo link and Google account ID, whether Google has verified your email address and, for a Google Workspace account, your organization's domain. We use them only to create and sign you in to your SkySuite account. We do not keep the profile photo link, and we keep the Workspace domain only in our sign-in security log.
- Google Calendar: If you connect Google Calendar, SkySuite asks to see, create, change and delete events only on Google calendars you own, and in practice uses only your primary calendar. We read event titles, descriptions, times, time zones and locations, and write events you create in SkySuite.
- What we store: Encrypted access tokens, the email address of the Google account you connected, and a copy of the events on your primary calendar from up to the past 12 months and the next 12 months, so that they show in your SkySuite calendar and stay in sync. Events are updated every few minutes while connected, and copies of events that ended more than 12 months ago are deleted.
- Only you see them: Your copied Google events are visible only to you. Other members of your SkySuite organization do not see them. Like your other calendar events, they still mark those times as busy when SkySuite works out when you are available (for example on booking pages), without showing what they are.
- Disconnecting: Revokes SkySuite's access at Google, deletes the stored tokens, and deletes the copied Google events from SkySuite. Events SkySuite created in your Google Calendar stay there until you delete them.
- No AI, no ads, no sale: Google user data is never sent to any artificial-intelligence model or AI provider, never used to train AI models, never sold, and never used for advertising. People at SkySuite do not read it except with your permission for support, for security, or when the law requires.
SkySuite's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
YouTube (SkySuite Social)
SkySuite Social (Office › Marketing › Social videos) is a separate, optional feature that lets you create short feature videos inside SkySuite and, if you connect your YouTube channel, post them directly to YouTube once you approve them. Connecting YouTube is optional and uses a separate Google app ("SkySuite Social") from the Google sign-in and Calendar features described above.
- What we ask for: one permission only: to upload videos to the YouTube
channel you choose (the
youtube.uploadscope). We do not ask for your Google account email, your profile or any other YouTube permission. - What we store: an encrypted OAuth access token and refresh token, so that SkySuite can upload the videos you approve on your behalf; the date you connected; and a record of each video SkySuite posted on your behalf (its YouTube video ID and link, title, caption, privacy setting, the time it was posted, and whether it succeeded). We do not store your Google account email or your YouTube channel name. If you connect more than one channel, each is a separate connection with its own token, and the name SkySuite shows for it is the one you type in SkySuite.
- Why: solely to upload the specific videos you create and approve inside SkySuite Social to your own YouTube channel, and to show you the result (success, failure, or a link to the video) inside SkySuite Social.
- What we never do: SkySuite never uploads a video to YouTube without your explicit approval of that specific video, and only uploads it to the channel you connected. SkySuite does not read, change or delete anything on your YouTube: not your other videos, comments, subscribers, playlists or analytics. YouTube/Google user data from this feature is never sold, never used for advertising, and never sent to any AI model or AI provider.
- Revoking access: Press Disconnect at Office › Marketing › Social videos › Connections. SkySuite asks Google to revoke its token, then deletes the connection record, including both tokens. Pressing Reconnect does the same first, before Google's screen opens. If Google cannot be reached at that moment, SkySuite still deletes its copy; you can also revoke access directly from your Google account at security.google.com/settings/security/permissions at any time.
- Retention: The connection record and token are deleted immediately on disconnect. If you don't disconnect yourself first, we delete them within 30 days of a verifiable request at [email protected] (45 days if we need an extension, with notice to you) — the same commitment in Section 5 below, which also applies to a deletion request made through the Data deletion page. That request also deletes the rendered social videos SkySuite created for you.
SkySuite's use and transfer of information received from YouTube APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements, and to the Google Privacy Policy. Using the YouTube posting feature also means you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service — see the Terms of Service page.
Facebook (SkySuite Social)
If you connect a Facebook Page in SkySuite Social, SkySuite can post the feature videos you create and approve to that Page as Reels. Connecting a Page is optional.
- What we ask for: permission to see the Facebook Pages you manage
(
pages_show_list), to read basic engagement on the Page for diagnostics (pages_read_engagement), and to publish posts to the Page you choose (pages_manage_posts). - What we store: encrypted OAuth access tokens for the connected Facebook account and Page, the name of the Facebook login you connected with, and the list of Pages you shared with SkySuite that you can post to (each Page's ID and name), including the Page you connected.
- Why: solely to post the specific videos you create and approve inside SkySuite Social to the Page you connected.
- Session length: Facebook logins last about 60 days. SkySuite shows a warning on the Connections page 7 days before yours ends, so you can press Reconnect.
- What we never do: this data is never sold, never used for advertising, and never sent to any AI model or AI provider.
- Revoking access: Press Disconnect at Office › Marketing › Social videos › Connections, which immediately revokes SkySuite's access at Facebook and deletes the stored token. If you connected several Pages through the same Facebook login, disconnecting one Page deletes that Page's token, and SkySuite's access at Facebook is revoked when you disconnect the last one. You can also remove the SkySuite Social app yourself in Facebook, under Settings & Privacy › Settings › Apps and Websites.
- Retention: The connection record and token are deleted immediately on disconnect. If you don't disconnect yourself first, we delete them within 30 days of a verifiable request at [email protected] (45 days if we need an extension, with notice to you) — the same commitment in Section 5 below, which also applies to a deletion request made through the Data deletion page. That request also deletes the rendered social videos SkySuite created for you.
This feature is governed by Meta's Platform Terms and Data Policy in addition to this Privacy Policy.
AI features
Some optional features use AI: drafting outreach emails and call scripts, the AI phone receptionist that answers calls, summarising weather, writing site-survey reports, the in-app assistant Sky, the blog writer, and processing drone imagery. These send only the information needed for that feature (for example your CRM contact notes, what a caller says to the AI receptionist, or a topic you type) to these providers:
- AI service providers that help power features such as the assistant, the AI receptionist and writing tools;
- cloud computing providers that process drone imagery;
- AI models we run ourselves on infrastructure operated by our hosting partners.
Where an AI service provider receives personal data, we use its business API service, which does not use our data to train its models by default. The blog writer sends only public blog topics and no personal data. Google user data is never sent to any of them.
2. How We Use Your Information

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through a prominent notice on the Service at least 30 days before the changes take effect. The "Effective Date" at the top of this page indicates when this policy was last updated.
12. SMS / Text Messaging
If you provide your mobile phone number and opt in, SkySuite (operated by Vista UAV) may send you SMS text messages related to your account and new chat messages. Opting in is entirely optional and is never a condition of using the Service.
- How we use your number: a mobile number you provide for SMS is used solely to deliver the account and chat notifications you opted in to receive. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply.
- No sharing for marketing: your mobile opt-in data and phone number are not sold, rented, or shared with any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. We share your number only with the messaging carrier/provider strictly as needed to transmit the messages you requested.
- Opting out of text messages: reply STOP to any SMS text message from us to unsubscribe from texts at any time, or turn off SMS notifications in your account settings. Reply HELP to a text for help. Replying STOP works for text messages only; to stop marketing emails, use the unsubscribe link included in every marketing email (one click, no login needed).
