Thank you for visiting Southwest Virtual Airlines (SVA).

We appreciate the opportunity to interact with you on the Internet and are committed to protecting and safeguarding your privacy. The purpose of this Privacy Statement is to inform you about the types of information we might collect about you when you visit our Site, how we may use that information and whether we disclose that information to anyone.

SVA can be reached at swavirtual.com, swavirtual.net and swavirtual.org. Only at these addresses will you be able to access our servers.

What Information We Collect and How We Use It
Any information we collect on our site generally falls into the Personally Identifiable Information category. This information includes your real name, e-mail address, country, password, age and VATSIM ID. If you hold an active membership with our organization, your real name, country and VATSIM ID may be displayed on our websites roster page and your pilot profile page. This profile page is public and search engines (such as Google, Bing) may index this page.

We do not sell, trade or rent any Personally Identifiable Information we collect online unless we have your permission. Any Personally Identifiable Information you provide to us will be used to identify your account on our platform.

From time to time, we may be required to provide Personally Identifiable Information in response to court order, subpoena, or government investigation. We also reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful. We may release Personally Identifiable Information when we believe that such release is reasonably necessary to enforce or apply our Limited Warranty or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others and ourselves.

We use browser cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you return to our website. We use them in various ways, for example to log you in and track what pages you visit.

Data Storage
SVA uses third-party vendors and hosting partners for hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology we need to run SVA. We maintain two types of logs: server logs and event logs. By using our services, you authorize SVA to transfer, store, and use your information in the United States and any other country where we operate.

Data Security
We use encryption (HTTPS/TLS) to protect data transmitted to and from our site. However, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, so we can't guarantee security. You use our website at your own risk, and you're responsible for taking reasonable measures to secure your account.

Links To Other Web Sites
Links to Third-Party websites may be provided solely for your information and convenience, or to provide additional information for various other goods and services. If you use these links, you will leave our Site. This Privacy Statement does not cover the information practices of those Web sites linked to our Site, nor do we control their content or privacy policies. We suggest that you carefully review the privacy policies of each site you visit.

Any updates or changes to the terms of this Privacy Statement will be posted here on our Site and the date of the newest version posted below. Please check back frequently, especially before you submit any Personally Identifiable Information at our Site, to see if this Privacy Statement has changed.
