Privacy Policy

Last updated: 03-AUG-2026

This Privacy Policy explains how ANVA Aviation Academy (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects and processes your personal data when you visit anva.aero (the “Website”). We process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the applicable ePrivacy rules.

1. Who we are (Data Controller)

The controller responsible for your personal data is:

• Legal name: ANVA Aviation Academy
• Company / registration code: 11614217
• Registered address: Q1-2-076, Golden Park, SAIF Zone, Sharjah U.A.E.
• Email: info@anva.aero
• 2. What personal data we collect

This Website is primarily an informational website, so we collect only limited personal data:

• Enquiry data. When you contact us using the email address, phone number or WhatsApp number shown on our Contact page, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, your contact details and the content of your message.
• Technical and security data. Our web server and our security plugin may automatically record technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information and the date and time of your visit.
• Consent data. We store a record of the cookie choices you make so that we can respect them and demonstrate that consent was given.

We do not operate an on-site contact form, we do not offer public account registration, and we do not enable comments on the Website.

3. Why we process your data and our legal bases

• To respond to your enquiries and provide information about our courses, examinations, workshops, facilities and consulting services — based on our legitimate interest in communicating with you, or on taking steps at your request before entering into a contract (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) and 6(1)(b)).
• To operate, maintain and secure the Website, including detecting and preventing malicious activity — based on our legitimate interest in the security and integrity of the Website (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
• To record and honour your cookie preferences — based on your consent for non-essential cookies (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)) and on our legitimate interest / legal obligation to demonstrate that consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) and 6(1)(c)).

4. Contact and enquiries

Our Contact page provides an email address, a telephone number and a WhatsApp number. When you use any of these to reach us, we process your message and contact details solely to handle and respond to your request. If your enquiry leads to a business relationship, related correspondence may be retained as part of our records.

5. Analytics

At the time this policy was prepared, no active website analytics were collecting data about visitors. Should we enable analytics (for example, Google Analytics) in the future, any analytics cookies and related processing will only take place after you have given your consent through our cookie banner, and we will update this policy to identify the provider and describe the data collected.

6. Security and firewall logging

We use the Wordfence security plugin to help protect the Website against attacks and abuse. Wordfence may process technical data such as IP addresses, request details and login attempts in order to detect, block and investigate malicious traffic. This processing is based on our legitimate interest in keeping the Website secure.

7. Server and access logs

Our hosting provider, Hostinger, automatically records standard server log data (such as IP address, date and time of access, and the resource requested) for the purposes of reliability, troubleshooting and security.

8. Backups

We keep backups of the Website (using the UpdraftPlus plugin) so that we can restore it after a failure or security incident. Backups may contain the categories of data described in this policy.

9. Cookies and consent

We use only a small number of cookies. Non-essential cookies are set only with your consent, which is collected and managed through our cookie banner (provided by CookieHub). You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie settings link on the Website. Full details are set out in our Cookie Policy.

10. Embedded third-party content

The Website does not currently embed third-party media, maps or social-media widgets. If we add such content in the future, it may set its own cookies or collect data directly, and we will update this policy accordingly.

11. Data processors and recipients

We share personal data only with service providers who process it on our behalf and under appropriate agreements, including:

• Hostinger — website hosting and server logs.
• CookieHub — cookie-consent management and consent logging.

We do not sell your personal data. We may also disclose data where required by law.

12. International data transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as an adequacy decision or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, to protect your data.

13. How long we keep your data

• Enquiry correspondence: at least 2 years.
• Security and server logs: at least 2 years.
• Backups: at least 2 years.
• Consent records: for as long as necessary to demonstrate that consent was given.

14. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access your personal data and to request its rectification or erasure; the right to restrict or object to processing; and the right to data portability. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@anva.aero.

15. Withdrawing consent

Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. You can withdraw cookie consent using the cookie settings link on the Website.

16. Complaints

If you believe your data protection rights have been infringed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

17. Automated decision-making

We do not carry out automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects concerning you or that similarly significantly affects you.

18. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The version that applies is the one published on this page, with the “Last updated” date shown at the top.
