Last changed 9 November 2026.
Paragliding (this site and its iPhone app) is run by Miha Lenaši, Slovenia, who decides what is kept and why. Questions or requests: [email protected].
In short: no ads, no tracking across sites, nothing sold. The site counts visits with its own statistics tool, without cookies and without anything that names you. Without signing in, nothing about you is kept on our server. What you add after signing in is shown to other pilots as the page shows it, and you can delete all of it at any time.
Without signing in
- The page remembers your settings (pilot level, favourite spots, score window, the accepted app terms) in your own browser only.
- Our server keeps no record of your visit beyond short technical logs (address, time, page) that the hosting keeps for a limited time to run and protect the service.
- Limits against spam: the server counts requests from each address, and each account when you're signed in, for up to a day, so no one can flood the site. Signed out, the one flight video a day is counted the same way.
- Security log: to spot spam and misuse, the server keeps for 30 days how many requests came from each address and each account a day (with the browser or app version), and for each sign-in, change (the kind of action, never its content) and refused request: the time, the account and the address. Only the site's admin sees it. It is not used for anything else and is deleted after 30 days, also for a deleted account.
- Visit statistics: the site counts page views with Umami, on our own server (analytics.inpisarna.com): the page, the site you came from, the browser, the device type and the country. No cookies, no IP address kept, nothing that names you, nothing shared or sold. The iPhone app sends none of this.
When you sign in with Google or Apple
- From Google or Apple: your name and e-mail address (from Google also your profile picture). They tell us only these after you agree in their own window.
- What you add: your club, check-ins (spot, day, hours, a note), flight reports and their photos, events you organise, routes you save, likes and comments on flights, messages on a takeoff’s day, and takeoffs you propose (the admin sees your name and e-mail with them; an approved spot is on the map for everyone, without your name).
- Who sees it: other pilots see your name, picture, club, check-ins, reports and photos where the page shows them. Your likes and comments on a flight are seen by whoever may see that flight (its pilot chooses who). Messages on a takeoff’s day are seen by signed-in pilots. Your e-mail is not shown to other pilots.
- Live position: only when you switch on live sharing, and only from the iPhone app while it records a flight (while its Fly screen is on, also which takeoff you are at). It is kept on the server (in memory, and in a file on its disk so a restart does not lose it), shown to signed-in pilots on the map, and deleted at midnight (Slovenian time), or when you switch it off; while you are still flying or have sent a link, 6 hours after your last position when that is later. A link you send to family shows it for at most 24 hours.
- Following and notifications: the pilots you follow and the takeoffs you star are kept with your account, with your notification settings and forecast alerts (your pilot level and takeoffs, to check the forecast for you). A pilot you follow sees that you follow them. Your notices (likes, comments, replies, events, new followers, forecast alerts) are kept for 30 days. The feed shows other pilots' flights only as they chose: a flight set to "Pilots that day" is only counted there.
- Sign-in cookie: one cookie keeps you signed in for 30 days. It is not used for anything else.
- Flight videos: how many videos you made on each day (3 a day), kept 30 days. The video itself is made in your browser and never reaches our server.
The iPhone app
- Location, motion and barometer are used on the phone to record your flights and tell driving from flying. Recordings are saved on the phone.
- Get ready at takeoffs (only when you switch it on in the app's Profile): with location set to Always, iOS watches the 20 takeoffs nearest to you and wakes the app when you arrive at one, so the flight recorder starts by itself, also with the app closed. The GPS is used from your arrival at a takeoff until after your landing. The places are watched on the phone; nothing is sent anywhere for it. With location set to While Using, you get a notification at the takeoff instead.
- Fly log: the app notes on the phone when it got ready, took off and landed and why, and the battery level, for 14 days. When you're signed in, a day's notes are uploaded with that day's flights, or when you tap Send Fly log, so a recording that started or ended wrongly can be fixed. Only the site's admin sees them.
- Flight upload: when you are signed in, the app sends each flight (the IGC file with your track and height, and a summary) to your flights on this site. Who sees it is up to you (see Flights, pilot pages and rankings).
- Apple Health: only if you turn it on, flights are saved as workouts in Apple Health on your phone, and the logbook shows each flight's heart rate. The heart rate leaves the phone only if you switch on Share heart rate for a flight: then its average, maximum and curve go with that flight to the site, and whoever may see the flight sees them. Switching it off deletes them from the site.
- Sensor log (for tuning the vario) stays on the phone unless you share it yourself.
- Contests (XCGlobe, Leonardo, DHV-XC): when you post a flight, the app sends its IGC file and your glider straight to that contest's site (xcglobe.com, paraglidingforum.com, dhv-xc.de) with your login for it. The logins are kept in the phone's keychain only and never reach this site. Where each flight is posted is saved with your flights here, so the website shows it too.
- Push notifications: only if you allow them. The app then sends this site a push token from Apple for your phone, tied to your sign-in; signing out deletes it. Each push (its title, the takeoff and day, and the count of unread notices) goes to your phone through Apple's push service. What pushes is up to you in Notifications settings.
- The app has no ads, no analytics and no tracking.
Flights, pilot pages and rankings
- Your flights come from the iPhone app or from IGC files you add on your pilot page. The site works out each flight's score (World XContest rules), climbs, glides and the wind from the track.
- Who sees a flight is your choice, for each flight and as a default for new ones: only you; signed-in pilots, in the list of who flew from that takeoff that day; your club; or everyone. Pilots who may see a flight see your name, the track, the score and the analysis, and can compare it with theirs, also in 3D.
- Pilot page and rankings: flights shown to everyone are on your pilot page and in the public rankings (day, season, takeoff records); flights shown to your club also in your club's view and the club ranking.
- Share link: if you make one for a flight, anyone with the link sees that flight without signing in, until you stop it.
- Posting to contests from the website: when you post a flight to XCGlobe, Leonardo or DHV-XC here, this site sends the flight's IGC file and your glider to that contest with the login you type. The login is used for that one request and is not saved or logged; your browser may offer to remember it. The site keeps only where each flight is posted and its link there, which only you see.
- Report a flight or block its pilot on the flight's page, as for notes and events (Community rules).
Problem reports
- When you send one from the menu (Report a problem), we keep your text, the screenshots you add, the page address and a few technical details: browser and screen size, language, and the page's recent error messages. If you are signed in, also your name and e-mail, so we can reply.
- Reports of a note or event (Report in the app) go to the same list, with the post and who wrote it.
- Only the site's admin sees them. A report is deleted half a year after it is closed, with its screenshots, or with Delete everything.
Other services the page and app use
- Forecast data from Open-Meteo, live stations from ARSO, map tiles from OpenTopoMap and OpenStreetMap, the map library from unpkg. Your browser or app fetches from them directly, so they see your internet address, as with any website.
- Airspace (in the XC planner and the iPhone app) from openAIP (CC BY-NC 4.0). Our server downloads it from openAIP once a day and the app gets it from our server, so openAIP does not see you.
- Google and Apple, for signing in.
- The site and its database are hosted by Railway.
Community rules
By signing in you agree to these rules for everything you add: check-ins, notes, events, reports, photos, comments and your name.
- No insults, threats, harassment, hate, sexual content, spam or ads, and nothing illegal or dangerous. We don't tolerate offensive posts or abusive pilots.
- Report a note, event or comment you find offensive: the … button next to it. We look at every report within 24 hours, delete posts that break these rules and close the accounts of pilots who break them.
- Block a pilot (same button) and you no longer see their check-ins, events, reports, flights and comments, and they can't like or comment on your flights. Unblock in the app under Profile.
- Questions: [email protected].
How long, and how to delete it
- We keep what you added until you delete it or your account.
- Delete single check-ins, reports, comments and flights where you see them; a flight's pilot can delete comments on it. Delete everything at once in the account menu: Delete everything removes your profile, check-ins, reports, photos, flights, likes, comments, notices, who you follow and who follows you, your push tokens and the spots you proposed that are not on the map (approved spots stay, without your name). Recordings on your phone stay until you delete them in the app.
- Or write to [email protected] and we delete it for you.
Your rights
You can ask what we keep about you, have it corrected or deleted, get a copy, or object to its use. The legal basis is your consent when you sign in and add things, and our legitimate interest in running the service safely. If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can complain to the Information Commissioner of Slovenia (ip-rs.si).
Not a flight instrument
The app, its airspace warnings and the forecast help you plan; they are not a certified flight instrument and not for navigation. You decide whether and where to fly, at your own risk. The full terms are in the app download window on the forecast page.
In flight the app guides you from GPS and the barometer, which can be wrong: the way and the glide to a landing, the next turnpoint of a route, spoken landing advice. YOUR USE OF THIS REAL TIME ROUTE GUIDANCE APPLICATION IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. LOCATION DATA MAY NOT BE ACCURATE.
