We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising or marketing profiling.
4. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services which may process your data under their own privacy policies:
Firebase (Google LLC)
Firebase provides our authentication system and database (Firestore). Your account data, purchase history, and activity logs are stored in Google's infrastructure. Google's privacy policy applies: policies.google.com/privacy
Discord (Discord Inc.)
If you use Discord login, Discord processes your OAuth authorisation. We only receive the data described in Section 2. Discord's privacy policy applies: discord.com/privacy
Stripe (Stripe, Inc.)
All payments are processed by Stripe on their hosted checkout pages. Fly2High never handles or stores your payment card data. Stripe's privacy policy applies: stripe.com/privacy
Google Fonts
We load the Inter typeface from Google Fonts CDN. This causes your browser to make a request to Google's servers. Google may log the request. Google's privacy policy applies.
Frankfurter.app
We fetch live currency exchange rates from frankfurter.app (European Central Bank data). No personal data is sent in this request — only a request for exchange rates. Rates are cached locally in your browser for 1 hour.
Coropos Web Services
This website is hosted and managed by Coropos Web Services. Their acceptable use policy applies: coroposws.com/policy-center
5. Data Retention
- Account data is retained for as long as your account is active
- If you request account deletion, your profile, Discord connection, and purchase records will be removed from our database
- Activity logs may be retained for up to 12 months for security purposes
- Stripe retains transaction records in accordance with their own policy and applicable financial regulations
- Browser-stored preferences (theme, currency, cart) are stored locally and can be cleared at any time via your browser settings

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you

Our giveaways are open to users aged 16 and older in accordance with our Terms of Use.
8. Security
- Passwords are hashed using Firebase Authentication's industry-standard methods — they are never stored in plain text
- All data transmissions between your browser and our servers use HTTPS encryption
- Payment processing occurs entirely on Stripe's PCI-DSS compliant infrastructure
