Privacy Policy

We don't collect your data.

This policy covers the FSG G1000 PFD and FSG G1000 MFD apps — on Android and iOS alike — and the FSG SimBridge companion program for Windows. The short version: there are no accounts, no analytics and no advertising, and nothing you do in the apps is sent to us — because we run no servers for them.

01Who is responsible

The data controller is Badisoft Bartosz Chyży, Poland, VAT ID (NIP) 7831873852, e-mail contact@flightsimgeeks.com. Because the controller is established in the European Union, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to any personal data processing described here.

02What the apps store on your device

Exactly two things, and both only so the app can reconnect by itself next time:

  • the address of your PC on your local network (for example 192.168.0.17:5750), chosen by you or found automatically,
  • the name that PC announces on the network, so the app can show it in the list.

Both stay in the app's own storage on your device. They are never transmitted to us, and uninstalling the app removes them. The apps create no user accounts and ask for no personal information — there is no sign-up, no e-mail, no profile.

03What travels over your network

While you fly, the apps exchange data with one destination only: your own PC, over your local network. That traffic carries the instrument picture coming from your simulator and the button presses and knob turns going back to it. It does not leave your network and it never reaches us.

To find your PC, the apps use standard local network discovery (mDNS/DNS-SD). This asks devices on your own network to identify themselves; it does not reach the internet.

On iOS, the system asks for permission to find and connect to devices on your local network the first time you open the app. That prompt is what makes everything above possible: it is used only to reach your own PC, and nothing about your network is collected or sent anywhere. Decline it and the app cannot reach your PC at all — not even if you type its address by hand, because iOS blocks local connections without that permission.

A note on encryption. Traffic between the app and your PC is not encrypted. It stays inside your local network, but anyone already on that same network could in principle observe it. It contains instrument imagery and control commands — no personal data, no credentials. It is declared the same way in the app's Data safety entry on Google Play and its App Privacy entry on the App Store.

04What FSG SimBridge stores on your PC

The companion program keeps a small amount of data locally, in %LOCALAPPDATA%\FlightSimGeeks\FSG:

  • panel calibration — where the instrument sits in each aircraft's cockpit, so the app can pop it out for you on later flights,
  • diagnostic logs — a rotating technical log used when something goes wrong.

None of it is transmitted anywhere. If you ever send us a log to help diagnose a problem, that is entirely your choice, and you can read the file first — it is plain text.

05Purchases

The apps are sold through Google Play on Android and through the App Store on iOS. The store is the merchant of record: it handles the payment, and we never see your payment details. We receive from Google and Apple only what any developer receives — aggregated sales and payout reporting, with no way to identify an individual buyer. Their own handling of your data is described in the Google Privacy Policy and the Apple Privacy Policy.

Both platforms may also collect crash reports and basic usage statistics as part of the platform itself — on iOS only if you have turned on Share With App Developers in your device settings. We add no analytics of our own — the apps contain no tracking, advertising or measurement libraries whatsoever, and we do not use Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework because we do not track you.

06This website

flightsimgeeks.com is a static site hosted on GitHub Pages. It sets no cookies and runs no analytics. GitHub, as the hosting provider, processes standard server logs (including visitor IP addresses) to deliver and protect the site — see the GitHub Privacy Statement.

07Children

These are flight simulation tools for a general audience. They are not directed at children, and they collect no personal data from anyone, including children.

08Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict and object to the processing of your personal data, and to data portability. In practice we hold no personal data about app users, so there is usually nothing to retrieve or delete — but if you contact us we will tell you exactly that, in writing, and act on any request that does apply.

If you believe your data has been mishandled, you may lodge a complaint with the Polish supervisory authority, the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO).

09Changes to this policy

If the apps ever start processing data differently — for example if a future version adds an online feature — this page will be updated before that version ships, and the date at the top will change. Material changes will also be noted in the app's release notes on Google Play and the App Store.
