Last updated: June 20th, 2024

Privacy Notice

Welcome to the website operated by IronFlight.ai (“we,” “us,” or “our”). IronFlight.ai provides (a) a platform through its website at ironflight.ai and attendant mobile applications (collectively, with any new features and applications, the “Platform”) and the IronFlight.ai Community and related services (collectively, with the Platform, the “IronFlight.ai Services”).

This Privacy Notice (the “Notice”) describes and governs how we collect, use, share, and protect information collected in the context of our Services. Before you use or submit any information through or in connection with the Services, please carefully review this Notice. By using any part of the Services, you acknowledge the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as outlined in this Notice. To the extent allowed by law, the English version of this Notice is binding and its translations in other languages are for convenience only; in case of discrepancies between the English version of this Notice and its translations, the English version shall prevail.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

As further described below, when you use or otherwise access the Services, we collect information in multiple ways, including when you provide information directly to us, and when we passively collect information from your browser or device (e.g., by logging how you interact with our Services).

Communications to IronFlight.ai:
If you have questions about how IronFlight.ai handles your Personal Information you may contact us via a contact form, email, by chat services or by other means (for example, with questions about our Services, for customer support, or to let us know your ideas for new products or modifications to existing products).

We may engage vendors to provide certain interactive features on our Platform. Your use of these interactive features is voluntary, and we may retain the information that you submit through these features. For example, we may offer an interactive chat feature on the Platform for customer service purposes. When you participate in the interactive chat, the contents of the chat may be captured and kept as a transcript. By using these features, you understand that our vendors may process the information obtained through the feature to provide the service on our behalf. We also may combine information obtained through these features with information that we have about you.

We would ask that you take care not to send financial information or other sensitive personal data to us through our chat services or other means, unless we ask you specifically for that data as part of providing our Service to you.  When you provide such information to us directly, you consent to the processing of this data by IronFlight.ai and/or our service providers. While you are under no obligation to provide us with such information, should you choose to withhold such information, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of the Services.

Information relating to other parties:
You can choose to provide us with information relating to other parties. If you decide to do that, we give you the option to either add information to our Platform or to provide us access to information stored in your email and mobile device’s address books, such as names, email addresses, or phone numbers of your contacts (collectively, “Third-Party Data”).

If you use any feature of the Services that allows you to communicate with other parties, either by submitting Third-Party Data to the Services or otherwise permitting the Services to automatically access Third-Party Data in your possession, you acknowledge, represent, and agree (a) that you have the authority of the relevant other party for us to access and use the relevant Third-Party Data, and (b) that you have notified these other parties and informed them how their information is collected and used by IronFlight.ai to provide the Services.

We reserve the right to identify you as the person who has made the referral in any messages that are sent to them. We use Third-Party Data to (1) contact such party using the Third-Party Data provided, and/or (2) provide you with an editable template message designed to facilitate communication between you and such party through the Services. In addition to sending the foregoing communications, we may also send reminders or related messages to you and too other parties on your behalf from time to time, where permitted by applicable law. In each case, any such communications sent to such parties using Third-Party Data will provide a means to “opt out” of receiving further communication of the same nature.

Sensitive information:
You can also provide us with information about yourself or other parties that is or could be used to make inferences that are considered sensitive, such as political opinions, race, ethnicity, health information or religious beliefs.

When you provide such information to us, directly or indirectly, you consent to the processing of this data by IronFlight.ai and/or its service providers. We collect the information listed in this section for the purposes described below in the sections “Our Use of Information Collected” and “Our Disclosure of Information Collected Through the Services.

Biometric information:
We use vendors for identity verification and fraud prevention purposes. These biometric information vendors, acting as our service providers and processors, may collect a copy of your government-issued ID (i.e., your driver’s license, state ID card, or passport) and a scan of the picture on your government-issued ID for identification purposes (“biometric information”) and employ facial recognition technology to verify your identity. These biometric information services provide us with a confirmation as to whether your identity has been validated or not. Except as stated here, IronFlight.ai does not retain any biometric information, and instead that information is maintained by the processors/service providers performing the services.

By disclosing your information with these biometric information vendors, you consent to the collection, processing, disclosure and storage of your biometric information for identity verification and fraud prevention purposes.

Your biometric information will be used for identity verification and fraud prevention purposes and in accordance with this Notice. If you do not consent to the collection and use of your biometric information, we will use a copy of your government-issued ID and other information to verify your identity.

Your biometric information will be retained by our processors for as long as necessary for identity verification and fraud prevention and in accordance with applicable law.  Please contact us to the extent you have any questions regarding your biometric information.

Cookies are small pieces of information that are issued to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, or access or use a mobile application. That information regarding your use of the Platform is stored and sometimes tracked. Web beacons are transparent image files, which enable the Platform to track website usage information. Unlike cookies, web beacons are not placed on your computers.

We will refer to the cookies and other technologies identified here collectively as “Cookies” for purposes of this Notice.

Some Cookies are strictly necessary to make our Services available to you(“Essential Cookies”). For example, Essential Cookies are used to provide the chat and login functionality and to remember your consent and privacy choices. We cannot provide our Services without these Essential Cookies.

One of the special features of the Services is that it allows you to enable or log into the Services via various Social Networking Services, like Facebook or Twitter, or to upload videos using YouTube APIs (“Social Networking Service(s)”). By directly integrating these services, we aim to make your online experiences richer and more personalized. To take advantage of these features, we will ask you to provide your credentials for the applicable Social Networking Service in order to log in to our Services. When you add a Social Networking Services account to the Services or log into the Services using your Social Networking Services account, we will collect relevant information necessary to enable the Services to access that Social Networking Service.

The information (including an anonymized IP address) collected by the technology will be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers, who use the information to evaluate your use of the Services. This information can be used to place interest-based advertisements on the Platform. This may result in you seeing advertisements for our Platform when you visit other websites.
