Thoughts on Privacy & Data Collection

Published 2026-04-17 18:39 UTC · General

What's being collected and what's not

Let’s address something that matters to an ever increasing number of people (myself included): Personal identifiable information. With all the data brokering, security breaches and the rise of AI systems (which are scraping every source of information they can access - legally or not), it's all getting messier by the day.

Short version: FrontierWings does not spy on you.

What we don’t do

  • No tracking pixels
  • No analytics scripts following you around the internet
  • No selling your data to anyone
  • No “we value your privacy” banner that secretly means the opposite

What we do store (and why)

We only store what’s actually needed to make the platform work:

  • Your email address and name (for your account — that’s basically it on the personal data side)
  • Your flights / mission data (so the whole thing makes sense)
  • Basic technical logs (to fix things when they break… which they sometimes do)

That’s it. No hidden extras.

Why it’s like this

Two reasons:

First, I’m not a perfect developer. Nobody is. AI systems are getting stronger every day in breaching valuable databases, and no matter how much I and some assistant AI try to plug all the holes, it's not unlikely that at some point some malicious entity will try and succeed to access data it shouldn't.

And because of that, the safest data is the data not stored anywhere it doesn't need to be.

Second, I actually worked as a data protection officer for a couple of years. Which means I’ve seen enough “creative interpretations” of privacy to last a lifetime.

So instead of writing a 20-page legal novel nobody reads, the goal is simple: collect as little as possible.

Questions?

If you’re unsure about anything related to data or privacy — just ask.
