This information may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, payment information (processed by Stripe; we do not store full credit card numbers), aircraft listing details, photographs you upload, and any messages or communications you send through the Site.

1.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you access the Services, we may automatically collect certain information about your device, browsing activity, and usage patterns. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, time spent on pages, click patterns, device identifiers, and approximate geographic location derived from your IP address. We collect this information through cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, log files, and similar tracking technologies.

1.3 Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience, remember your preferences (such as pre-filling lead inquiry forms with your previously submitted contact information), analyze trends, administer the Site, track user movement around the Site, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling cookies may limit your ability to use certain features of the Services.

Specifically, we use the following cookies: session cookies for authentication (via Clerk); preference cookies to store your contact information for lead form pre-filling (lbf_buyer_name, lbf_buyer_email, lbf_buyer_phone); and functional cookies for features such as aircraft comparison (lbf_favorites). These cookies are retained for up to 90 days.

We may receive information about you from third-party services integrated with the Site, including Clerk (authentication provider), Stripe (payment processor), and Resend (email delivery service). The information received may include your name, email address, and authentication status. Your use of these third-party services is governed by their respective privacy policies.

2. How We Use Your Information

3. How We Share Your Information

3.1 With Sellers

When you submit a lead inquiry form on an aircraft listing, your name, email address, phone number, and message will be shared with the seller of that listing so they may contact you directly. By submitting a lead inquiry, you expressly consent to this sharing of your contact information with the seller.

3.2 With Service Providers

We may share your information with third-party service providers that perform services on our behalf, including payment processing (Stripe), authentication (Clerk), email delivery (Resend), hosting (Vercel), and database services (Neon/PostgreSQL). These service providers are contractually obligated to use your information only as necessary to provide their services to us and are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information.

3.3 For Legal Purposes

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to: (a) comply with a legal obligation; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of List Buy Fly; (c) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Services; (d) protect the personal safety of users of the Services or the public; or (e) protect against legal liability.

3.4 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or other similar event, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity or successor. We will provide notice before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

3.5 With Your Consent

We may share your information for any other purpose disclosed to you at the time we collect the information or with your consent.

4. Marketing Communications

If you opt in to receive marketing communications from List Buy Fly (via the marketing consent checkbox on the lead inquiry form), we may send you periodic emails about new listings, marketplace updates, promotions, and other information we think may be of interest to you. You may opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any marketing email, or by contacting us at the email address below. Please note that even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may still send you transactional or service-related communications.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Listing data is retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you the Services. Lead inquiry data is retained for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of submission, after which it may be anonymized or deleted. Cookie data is retained for up to 90 days. If you request deletion of your personal information, we will honor your request within thirty (30) days, subject to any legal obligations that require us to retain certain information.

6. Data Security

We implement commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. These measures include encryption of data in transit (TLS/SSL), secure database hosting, access controls, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. You acknowledge and accept this inherent risk.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access the personal information we hold about you; the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information; the right to request deletion of your personal information; the right to object to or restrict the processing of your personal information; the right to data portability; and the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address provided below. We will respond to your request within thirty (30) days. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights.

8. California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)

11. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers transmit "Do Not Track" signals. Because there is no uniform standard for how "Do Not Track" signals should be interpreted, the Site does not currently respond to such signals. However, you can manage your cookie and tracking preferences through your browser settings.
