Privacy Policy
CFI Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 29, 2026
CFI Copilot ("the app") is made by Michael Fabbro ("we", "us"). This policy explains what happens to information you use in the app.
The short version. We don't collect your data. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. Everything you enter stays on your device, or in your own iCloud account if you use Pro. We can't see it.
Where your data is stored
Free plan: everything you enter is stored only on your device.
Pro plan: your data is also stored in your own private iCloud database, provided by Apple, so it can sync across devices signed in to your Apple Account. We cannot access, read, back up or restore it. Apple's privacy policy covers iCloud, and this data counts toward your iCloud storage.
Information about your students
You may enter information about your students, such as names, contact details, lesson grades, notes and training records. That information is stored only as described above. We never receive it. You are responsible for having your students' permission to keep and share their information.
When the app sends information outside your device
The app only sends information when you use these features:
Weather: to show METAR, TAF and runway information, the app sends airport identifiers to aviationweather.gov, a US government service run by NOAA and the FAA. No personal information is included, though their servers may log your IP address like any website.
Reports and calendar invites: these are created on your device and sent through your own Mail or Messages app or the share sheet, to the recipients you choose. Your email provider or carrier delivers them.
Contacts: when you add a student from Contacts, the app copies only the contact you pick. It does not read the rest of your address book.
Calendar: "Add to my calendar" opens the system calendar editor. The event is saved only if you save it.
Dictation and imports: voice notes and imported documents, photos and scans are processed on your device.
Siri, Shortcuts and widgets: these use data stored on your device. Siri requests are handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy.
Purchases
Subscriptions are processed by Apple. We never receive your payment information. Apple gives us sales and subscription reports that do not identify you personally.
Diagnostics
If you choose to share analytics with app developers in your device settings, Apple may provide us with aggregated usage statistics and crash reports. These do not identify you. The app does not use third-party analytics, advertising or tracking services.
Children
The app is intended for flight instructors and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Deleting your data
Delete students, lessons or courses in the app at any time.
Deleting the app removes its data from that device.
To delete Pro data from iCloud, open Settings on your iPhone or iPad, tap your name, then iCloud, then Manage Account Storage, and delete the CFI Copilot data if it's listed.
If you contact us
If you email us, we use your email address and message only to reply to you.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we'll update the effective date above. Significant changes will be noted in the app's release notes.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Free and Pro? Free includes 1 student and 1 course, stored on one device. Pro adds unlimited students and courses and syncs your data across your devices through your own iCloud account.
How do I restore my purchase on a new device? Sign in with the same Apple Account, open CFI Copilot, go to Settings → Plan and tap Restore Purchases.
How do I redeem a promo code? In the app, go to Settings → Plan and tap Redeem Code.
How do I cancel my subscription? In the app, go to Settings → Plan → Manage Subscription. You can also cancel in your device's Settings: tap your name, then Subscriptions. You keep Pro until the end of the current billing period.
My data isn't syncing between devices. Check that both devices are signed in to the same Apple Account, iCloud is turned on, and both have Pro. Open Settings → iCloud Sync in the app to see the sync status and any problem.
Can you recover my data? No. Your data stays on your devices and in your own iCloud account, so we never have a copy. With Pro, a new device signed in to the same Apple Account restores it automatically.
Where does the ACS content come from? The Airman Certification Standards are taken from the FAA's official publications. Always check the current FAA documents for your checkride.
