Thank you for choosing to access the website of Par Avion Ltd. (“company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). We take your privacy very seriously and are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at jki@paravioinltd.com. As you visit our website via www.paravionltd.com (the “Site”) and request and/or use our services, you may entrust us with your personal information.
In this privacy notice, we describe our privacy policy and seek to explain to you in the clearest way possible the information we collect, how we use it and what rights you have in relation to it under applicable privacy and data protection laws. These laws may include, depending on your location, U.S. state privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), and similar laws in other U.S. states), as well as the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the UK GDPR.
Please read this privacy notice/policy carefully as it will help you make informed decisions about sharing your personal information with us. If there are any terms in this privacy policy that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of our Site and our services.
This privacy policy applies to all information that may be collected from time-to-time through our Site and/or any related services, sales, marketing or events (we refer to all of these collectively in this privacy policy as the “Sites”).
1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you engage with or register on the Sites, express an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and services, submit an inquiry or request throught he Site, or otherwise contact us. The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Sites, the choices you make and certain features you use. All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to your personal information. The personal information we collect may include the following:
Information automatically collected
We automatically collect certain information when you visit, use or navigate the Sites. This information does not reveal your specific identity (e.g., your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, general location information, information about how and when you use our Site and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Sites, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes. Like many businesses, we also collect information through cookies and similar technologies, including through tools such as Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager.
Information potentially collected from other sources
In order to enhance our ability to provide relevant marketing, offers and services to you and update our records, we may obtain information about you from other sources, such as public databases, aviation industry sources, joint marketing partners, as well as from other third parties. Examples of the information we could potentially receive from other sources may include any information that you choose to make public, marketing leads and search results and links.
Sensitive Personal Information
We do not collect sensitive personal information through the Sites. In limited circumstances unrelated to general website use, such as during aircraft transactions, facility access, or compliance and know-your-customer (KYC) processes, we may temporarily receive copies of identification documents (for example, passports or driver’s licenses) from crew members, visitors, buyers, sellers, or other transaction participants. Such information is typically provided directly by email or other secure means, is used solely for the specific transaction or compliance purpose, and is deleted once the transaction, access requirement, or related services are completed.
2. HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?
We may use personal information collected via our Sites for a variety of business purposes. Par Avion does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. Par Avion may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. We process your personal information for these purposes in reliance on our legitimate business interests (“Business Purposes”), in order to enter into or perform a contract with you (“Contractual”), with your consent (“Consent”), and/or for compliance with our legal obligations (“Legal Reasons”). Certain uses of personal information described below may be considered “targeted advertising” under some U.S. state privacy laws, and where required we provide appropriate opt-out rights.
We indicate the specific processing grounds we rely on next to each purpose listed below. We use the information we collect or receive:
3. WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?
We only share and disclose your information in the following situations:
4. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (such as analytics tools) to access or store information. We may also use cookies to remember you when you return to the Sites as well as to identify the pages you click on during your visit to our Sites and, in some cases, the name of the website you visited immediately before clicking to the Par Avion Ltd. Sites. We use this information to improve our site design, customer service, and to better understand how visitors interact with the Sites through aggregated analytics data. The Sites currently use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager to collect and analyze this information. These tools help us understand website traffic patterns and usage trends. We do not embed third-party advertising pixels on the Sites for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. You can, of course, disable cookies on your computer by indicating this in the preferences or options menus in your browser. However, it is possible that some parts of our Website will not operate correctly if you disable cookies. For users located in the European Union or the United Kingdom, non-essential cookies will only be used where permitted by applicable law and, where required, based on your consent. You may control or withdraw your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings or any cookie management tools that may be made available on the Sites. We may contract with third parties who may use cookies and collect information on our behalf or provide services such as website analytics, email communications, promotional services or data management. We call them our Customer Care Partners. These third parties are prohibited by our contract with them from sharing that information with **anyone other than us or our other Customer Care Partners.
5. IS YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED INTERNATIONALLY?
Please note that our Sites’ servers are located in the United States. If you are accessing our Sites from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and potentially by any third parties with whom we may share your personal information, in the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and/or other countries. If you are a resident in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, then these countries may not have data protection or other laws as comprehensive as those in your country. We will however take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy notice/policy and applicable law. Where required by applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR and UK GDPR, international transfers of personal information are subject to appropriate safeguards. These safeguards may include the use of Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, together with supplementary measures where appropriate. We assess international data transfers on a case-by-case basis and take steps designed to ensure that personal information transferred internationally continues to receive a level of protection that is consistent with this privacy policy and applicable law.
6. WHAT IS OUR STANCE ON THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES?
In short, we are not responsible for the safety of any information that you share with third-party providers who may advertise, but are not affiliated with, our websites. The Sites may contain advertisements from third parties that are not affiliated with us and which may link to other websites, online services or mobile applications. We cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of data you provide to any third parties. Any data collected by third parties is not covered by this privacy policy. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of any third parties, including other websites, services or applications that may be linked to or from the Sites. You should review the policies of such third parties and contact them directly to respond to your questions. Where third-party websites or services are accessed through links on the Sites, your interactions with those third parties are governed by their own privacy policies and practices, not this privacy policy. To the extent that third-party advertising, analytics, or similar technologies are used on the Sites, such third parties may collect information independently in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not control and are not responsible for such third-party data collection activities. Under applicable U.S. state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), you may have the right to opt out of certain data practices if they constitute “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising. As described elsewhere in this policy, we do not currently engage in cross-context behavioral advertising through the Sites.
7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The length of time for which we retain personal information depends on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal or business requirements. More specifically, we generally retain personal information submitted through inquiries or communications for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, maintain our business relationship, and address related business or legal needs. We may keep certain of your information for a longer period for purposes of future business consultation, aircraft discussions, or related reasons, unless and until you request deletion or applicable law requires earlier deletion. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if deletion is not feasible (for example, because the information is stored in backup archives), securely store the personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. To be clear, this retention approach does not relate to general emails or routine communications from you, but rather relates to personal information obtained during our business relationship or in connection with specific inquiries or transactions.
8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
We have implemented security measures such as fire walls and other means of blocking access to certain of your personal information. We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we access and process. Please know that these measures are all designed to protect the security of personal information we access and process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, your transmission of personal information to and from our Sites is at your own risk. You should only access the Sites and services within a secure environment..
9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
We do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the Sites, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age or that you are the parent or legal guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Site. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account (if applicable) and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13, and the Sites are not directed to children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information as soon as practicable. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at the email above.
10. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

These may include the right (i) to request access to and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure, (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information, and (iv) where applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. To make such a request, please use the contact details provided at the end of this Privacy Notice/Policy. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal. If you are resident in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. For EU residents, you can find supervisory authority contact details here: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm. UK residents may contact the Information Commissioner’s Office.
In addition, depending on your state of residence in the United States, you may have certain rights under applicable U.S. state privacy laws. These rights may include the right to request access to personal information we hold about you, the right to request correction or deletion of personal information, and the right to opt out of certain data processing activities, such as targeted advertising or sharing, where applicable..
11. DO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine The Light” law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us using the contact information provided below.
In addition, California residents have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”). These rights may include the right to request access to personal information we collect about you, the right to request correction of inaccurate personal information, the right to request deletion of personal information (subject to certain exceptions), and the right to know the categories of personal information collected, used, and disclosed. California residents also have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, as those terms are defined under California law. As described elsewhere in this policy, we do not sell personal information and do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under California law. Requests to exercise California privacy rights may be submitted using the contact information provided below, and we may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.
12. DO WE MAKE UPDATES TO THIS POLICY?
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any updated version will be indicated by an updated “Last updated” date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible.
