DroneOps Platform Terms of Use
Legal Information & Notices
1. Introduction
Welcome to the DroneOps Platform (the "App"). By accessing or using this App, you agree to comply with these
Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you must discontinue using the App immediately.
This App is developed by an individual and is not affiliated with any juridical entity or business. It is an
independent informational tool created to help drone pilots in Romania plan flights, visualise airspace
restrictions and generate documentation (such as Annex 1 / Annex 2 PDFs).
The App is not an official system of any authority (including but not limited to ROMATSA,
AACR, MApN or any other state institution), does not issue flight approvals and does
not replace any official procedure, portal or communication channel of those authorities.
Important: Use of this App does not replace the user's obligation to follow all applicable
national and international laws and regulations, as outlined in Section 3.2.
2. Eligibility
- You must be at least 16 years old to use the App.
- For certain drone operations under specific rules, no minimum age may apply as per European and national regulations.
3. User Responsibilities
3.1 General Conduct
You are solely responsible for your actions within the App. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to:
- Violating airspace laws or restrictions.
- Submitting false or misleading flight plans or information.

Note: The App itself does not grant any operational approval, clearance or
authorisation. Any approval, acceptance or conditions you may receive are issued exclusively by the competent
authorities (such as ATC units, AACR, MApN or other institutions), based on the emails, forms and annexes
that you send to them using their official channels (typically email or dedicated portals).
You are responsible for obtaining all required approvals and for complying with their conditions.
3.3 Flight Documentation and Approvals
The App is designed to assist you in planning and documenting flights (e.g., showing restrictions on a map,
generating Annex 1 / Annex 2 PDFs and providing tools to sign and share these documents). It does not make
any operational decision on whether you may or may not fly.
-
You must not conduct any flight that would violate applicable laws, regulations or published restrictions,
even if a mission is created or appears as "submitted" or "saved" in the App.
-
The App does not provide any separation between drones and other aircraft and does not provide air traffic
control services. Pilots are solely responsible for maintaining safe separation and complying with VLOS/BVLOS
and other operational requirements.
-
The App may indicate that your planned area intersects certain zones (e.g. CTR or UAS geographical zones)
and may help you prepare documentation, but this information is provided for guidance only and may not be
complete or error-free. You must always verify the current status of the airspace using official sources.
-
For any zone or procedure that requires notification, approval or coordination (for example, operations in CTR,
military areas or special use airspace), you are responsible for using the appropriate official channels to
request and obtain approval (e.g. sending Annex 1 / 2 PDFs by email to ATC, using aerofoto.mapn.ro or other
published contacts).
-
The App does not guarantee that authorities will approve a flight, respond within a certain time, or accept
a particular format of documentation.
4. Account Management
4.1 Account Creation
- Users must provide accurate and complete information during registration.
- A valid phone number is required and should remain active during any planned or ongoing operation, in case authorities need to contact you.
4.2 Account Termination
- Users can request account termination at any time via the App or by contacting the developer.
- Repeated violations of these Terms or misuse of the App may result in account suspension or termination.
5. Limitation of Liability
-
The developer is not responsible for accidents, incidents, infringements, delays, rejections, or any
direct or indirect damages arising from use of the App, from flight operations, or from any decision taken
based on information or documentation generated by the App.
-
The App is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express
or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose or
non-infringement.
-
The user remains fully responsible for verifying airspace information through official sources and for
obtaining all necessary approvals from competent authorities.
