13. Notice to European Users
General
Where this Notice applies: The information provided in this Notice to European Users section applies only to individuals located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK).
Personal information: References to “personal information” in this Privacy Policy should be understood to include a reference to “personal data” as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“EU GDPR”) and the EU GDPR as it forms part of the laws of the United Kingdom (“UK GDPR”).
Controller: Sky Frontier Foundation is the “controller” in respect of the processing of your personal information covered by this Privacy Policy for purposes of the GDPR. See the How to Contact Us section above for our contact details.
Our Legal Bases for Processing
In respect of each of the purposes for which we use your personal information, the GDPR requires us to ensure that we have a “legal basis” for that use. Our legal bases for processing your personal information include:
Legitimate Interests: Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests, such as operating and improving our Service, communicating with you, and ensuring security.
Compliance with Law: Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
Consent: Where we have your specific consent to carry out the processing for the purpose in question, such as for certain marketing communications or optional cookies.
Your Additional Rights
European data protection laws may give you certain rights regarding your personal information. If you are located in Europe, you may ask us to take the following actions in relation to your personal information that we hold:
Access: Provide you with information about our processing of your personal information and give you access to your personal information.
Correct: Update or correct inaccuracies in your personal information.

Exercising These Rights: You may submit these requests by email to legal@skyfrontier.co. We may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and process your request. Typically, you will not have to pay a fee to exercise your rights; however, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within a month of receipt.
Your Right to Lodge a Complaint: Although we urge you to contact us first to find a solution for any concern you may have, if you are not satisfied with our response to a request you make, or how we process your personal information, you can make a complaint to the data protection regulator in your habitual place of residence. For users in the European Economic Area, contact information for data protection regulators can be found at: https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/board/members_en. For users in the UK, contact information can be found at: https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/.
Data Processing Outside Europe
Due to the international nature of our operations, your personal information may be processed by our service providers, advisers, partners, or other recipients of data operating outside Europe. Where we share your personal information with third parties who are based outside Europe, we try to ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by implementing appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by relevant authorities, or by relying on adequacy decisions or approved certification mechanisms where applicable.
You may contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of Europe.
