1. What this service is

ADG FlySafe is operated by Argus Defense Group ("we", "us"). It is a set of three tools that gather publicly available aviation, weather and airspace information into one place and present it in a form useful before and during an unmanned aircraft operation:

• The field app (ADG FlySafe Field) — a go/no-go summary for wherever you are standing. Requires a subscription.
• The planning map — airspace, facility-map ceilings, special use areas, obstacles and route planning. It does not check temporary flight restrictions; the field app does. Requires a subscription.
• The operations dashboard — a wall display of flying conditions, nearby traffic, alerts, radar and industry news. Requires a subscription.

We do not produce any of the underlying information. Every figure, boundary, alert and aircraft position shown here originates with a third party — mostly the United States federal government — and is reproduced, at best, as we received it. What this service sells is convenience: the gathering, the arrangement, and the thresholds applied on top. It does not sell, and cannot sell, the accuracy of the source data.

2. Advisory only

Everything presented by ADG FlySafe is advisory and informational. In particular, and without limiting that statement:

• A green, "go", or otherwise favourable indication is not an authorisation to fly. It is a summary of data we retrieved, judged against thresholds that you or we configured. Wind is judged against the flying profile chosen on that device: the presets (small, standard, heavy and ag spray) are general starting points, not ratings for any particular aircraft, and custom limits are exactly the figures you entered. Checking them against your aircraft’s rated wind resistance is your responsibility.
• A UAS Facility Map ceiling is not an approval. It shows the altitude at which the FAA has indicated it will generally consider a request. LAANC or a formal authorisation remains the actual mechanism.
• Airspace boundaries, obstacles and restrictions shown here are published on a chart cycle and can be out of date. New construction, newly issued NOTAMs and newly issued temporary flight restrictions may not appear.
• ADS-B traffic shows only aircraft that are transmitting and being received by the volunteer feeder networks we query. Aircraft without ADS-B out, aircraft out of receiver coverage, and aircraft whose data is delayed will not appear. An empty scope does not mean empty sky.
• Weather figures are either the National Weather Service forecast for a 2.5 km grid square or the latest report from the nearest weather station, which can be tens of miles away. The apps say which one each figure is. Neither is a measurement at your field.
• None of it is certified for navigation, and none of it may be used as a primary means of separation from other aircraft or from terrain.

Before every flight, verify against the official sources: current charts, the FAA's own systems, an official weather briefing, and current NOTAMs.

3. The pilot in command

The pilot in command is solely responsible for the operation of the aircraft. That responsibility is not shared with us, is not reduced by anything this service displays, and is not transferred by a subscription.

It remains entirely with the pilot in command to determine that a flight can be conducted safely and lawfully, including compliance with 14 CFR Part 107 or whatever other rule, exemption, waiver or authorisation the operation is conducted under; to obtain any required airspace authorisation; to check current NOTAMs, TFRs and charts; to assess the actual weather and site conditions; to maintain required separation and visual line of sight; and to comply with any applicable state, local or tribal law and with the label of any product being applied.

Any decision to fly, to continue a flight, or to discontinue one is the pilot's decision alone. If what this service shows conflicts with an official source, the official source governs. If what this service shows conflicts with what you can see, what you can see governs.

4. Where the data comes from

Everything here is assembled from public and open data. We hold no licensed, proprietary or exclusive feed. The sources, and who is responsible for each:

Those organisations are not affiliated with Argus Defense Group, do not endorse this service, and have no involvement in it. Their data is used on the terms each of them publishes. Government works are generally not subject to copyright in the United States; where a source asks for attribution — the ADS-B traffic and the place search in particular, both under the Open Database License — attribution is shown on the page that uses it. News headlines are shown with their source and link to the original publisher.

Because these are third-party services, any of them can change, rate-limit, move or withdraw at any time, with or without notice to us. Each app is built to carry on with the panels it can still fill and to say plainly which ones it cannot; that is the most we can promise about an upstream outage.

5. No warranty

ADG FlySafe is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory. To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim all implied warranties, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the information shown is accurate, current, complete or free of error; that the service will be uninterrupted, timely or secure; or that any defect will be corrected. We do not warrant the third-party data described in section 4, and could not — we did not produce it.

6. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Argus Defense Group and its owners, officers, employees and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, crop, equipment, data or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of — or inability to use — ADG FlySafe, whether the claim is brought in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, and whether or not we were advised of the possibility.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you actually paid us for the service in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred United States dollars.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages, so parts of sections 5 and 6 may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded — including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any claim brought by a third party arising from your operation of an aircraft, your violation of any law or regulation, or your breach of these terms.

7. Accounts

All three tools require an account and a subscription.

You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for everything done through your account. Tell us promptly if you believe it has been used without your permission. Accounts are for one operator or organisation; do not share your credentials. One account, one subscription — if you need seats for a team, ask us rather than passing a password around.

You may close your account at any time from the account page. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that is used unlawfully, or whose payment has failed and remains unpaid.

8. Subscription and billing

Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card number — the payment page and the billing portal are hosted by Stripe, and what we keep is a customer reference, the state of your subscription and the date it renews.

• The subscription renews automatically for successive periods at the price shown at checkout, until cancelled.
• You can cancel at any time from the account page. Cancelling stops the next renewal; access continues to the end of the period you have already paid for.
• Charges already made are generally not refunded, including for a partly used period. If something has genuinely gone wrong, get in touch — we would rather sort it out than argue about it.
• If a payment fails we may retry it and may suspend access until it succeeds.
• We may change the price. Any change applies from your next renewal, and we will tell you before it takes effect so that you can cancel first if you would rather.
• Prices are in United States dollars and exclude any tax that may apply.

If your right to cancel a distance contract under consumer law is greater than what is described here, that law applies rather than this section.

9. Acceptable use

Use the service for its intended purpose. Do not scrape, resell, relay or redistribute the data feeds; do not attempt to bypass the subscription or share access with people who do not have it; do not attempt to break, overload or gain unauthorised access to any part of the system; and do not use the service in breach of any law.

The underlying public data is, of course, public — nothing here restricts you from going to the FAA, NOAA or any other source and getting it yourself. What is not open is this site's assembly of it, its code and its presentation.

10. Privacy

What we hold. If you create an account: your email address, a one-way hash of your password (never the password itself), an optional short username, whether you have confirmed your address, your Stripe customer reference, and the status and renewal date of your subscription. Nothing else.

What we do not hold. We do not store your location. Field Watch Fly and the planning map read your position in your browser and use it there; where a position is sent to our servers to look up nearby traffic, it is rounded to roughly seven miles and used only to answer that request. We do not store the addresses of visitors — the sign-in rate limiter counts against a one-way hash of the address rather than the address. We do not sell data, we run no advertising, and there are no third-party trackers or analytics on this site. Fonts and map libraries are served from this domain rather than from a content network, so that loading a page does not report you to anyone. Your flying profile (the wind limits you pick) is kept in your browser on that device and is never sent to us.

Cookies. One, named __Host-adg_sess. It holds a random session identifier, exists so that you stay signed in, and is not used for tracking. There are no advertising or analytics cookies, so there is no consent banner to click.

Processors we rely on. Cloudflare hosts the site and its database. Stripe handles payments. Resend delivers confirmation and password-reset email. Each receives only what it needs to do its job and handles it under its own terms.

How long. Account data is kept while the account exists. Ask us through the contact form to have an account and its data deleted; we will keep only what tax and accounting law requires us to keep about a completed transaction.

Your rights. Ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, and we will. The contact form is the way to do it.

11. Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top changes when we do. If a change materially affects your rights we will make a reasonable effort to tell subscribers directly. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the revised terms; if you do not, cancel.

12. Contact

Argus Defense Group
www.argusdefensegroup.com

Use the contact form on that site to reach us — about these terms, a billing question, or a request about your own data. There is deliberately no address published here: a form reaches whoever is on duty and gets an answer, and an address on a public page mostly collects spam.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the courts of that state have jurisdiction — except where the law of your own country gives you a right to bring a claim locally, which these terms do not take away.

If any part of these terms is held unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
