EU data centres
All detection data is stored within the EU, with GDPR and DSP-compliant hosting.
Data & compliance
Your data, held properly.
Detection data is stored within EU data centres, retention is set to the obligations you already work to, and the footage belongs to you.
Compliance
What that means in practice.
EU HOSTED
GDPR
Operator privacy by design
Detecting a drone means handling data about a person. Operator privacy obligations are built into the retention schedule rather than bolted on.
The footage stays yours
You own the recordings. They are shared only as agreed, and retained to a schedule you set.
No facial recognition
Aerdefence Patrol detects people, vehicles and animals. It runs no facial recognition and carries no microphone, and anything beyond your boundary is blurred automatically.
Why it matters
The part sites ask about twice.
Airspace security creates records about identifiable people: the operator of a drone, and sometimes whoever is standing beside them. Treating that casually is both a legal problem and a reason for a site to hesitate before deploying anything at all.
Aerdefence is built the other way around. Detection data lives in EU data centres, retention is agreed with you and enforced by the schedule, and the privacy controls on Patrol flights are structural: a geocage that confines flights to your property, automatic blurring beyond the boundary, no facial recognition, and no audio.
