Data Protection

“UAS365 GmbH”, here called “UAS365”, is a service provider in the aviation industry. To fulfill its tasks, UAS365 processes data from customers, partners and suppliers. The CEO is responsible for data processing and can be reached via the contact form on our website www.uas365.com or by postal letter at: UAS365 GmbH, An der Blutfinke 102, 42369 Wuppertal, Germany.

Revocation of consent

Some data processing operations are only possible with your expressed consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. Notification via one of the channels mentioned above is sufficient to revoke your consent. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to complain

You have the right to file a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority in the event of a data protection violation. The responsible supervisory authority for data protection issues is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information in North Rhine-Westphalia (www.ldi.nrw.de).

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to third parties. It is provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the data to be transferred directly to another person responsible, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

At any time, within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to be informed about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if necessary, a right to correct, block or delete this data. In this regard and also if you have any further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact options listed above.

TLS encryption

Our website, consisting of core website, webstore and learning management system (LMS), all accessible via www.uas365.com, uses TLS encryption. Data that you send to us, e.g. in a contact form on the core website or during an online exam in the LMS, are therefore encrypted during transport and thus cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the “https://” address line in your browser and by the lock symbol in the browser line.

Server log files

The provider of our website automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Page visited on our domain

• Date and time of the server request

• Browser type and browser version

• Operating system used

• Referrer URL

• Host name of the accessing computer

• IP address

This data will not be merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Data transmission when booking a course, event or exam

Personal data will only be transmitted to third parties if necessary in the context of contract processing. For example, personal data must be forwarded to the German Civil Aviation Office (LBA) in order to issue the STS and A2 remote pilot certificates. No further transmission of data will take place or only if you have expressly agreed to this.

The basis for data processing is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.

To use certain functions, you must create a user account yourself or we will create one for you using your data. The data used for this purpose is used exclusively for the purpose of using the respective offer or service.

We store the data collected during registration for the period that you are registered on our website. Your data will be deleted there if you cancel your registration.

Video recordings

Online exams are video recorded. If the applicant does not agree to a recording, the test cannot take place as it is part of the quality assurance concept agreed with the Federal Aviation Office. However, the applicant can request that the recording be deleted immediately after completion of an examination in which there was no attempt to cheat. Otherwise, deletion will take place after six months at the latest.
