  • Legitimate interests: responding to enquiries, customer support, business administration, and maintaining website security.
  • Legal obligation: accounting and tax requirements for invoicing and record keeping.
  • Consent (where applicable): if we ever send marketing communications, we will do so only with your consent and you can withdraw it at any time.

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above:

9. Drone Footage and Personal Data

Our services involve aerial photography and video. Depending on the location and conditions, footage may incidentally capture identifiable individuals, vehicles, or personal data (e.g., faces or license plates).
We aim to minimize unnecessary personal data and can apply practical measures (e.g., choosing angles/altitudes, timing, or blurring) when appropriate and agreed.

  • Request correction of inaccurate data.

11. Complaints

If you believe your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
