## Cloud upload

Skydio X10 GPS and location data is never uploaded to Skydio unless the customer decides to do so; the X10D offline variant does not host, process, or store customer media in Skydio's cloud at all, while the standard X10 can connect to Skydio's SaaS cloud services if subscribed.

## Data sale

Skydio does not sell personal information for monetary consideration and states it does not provide customer data to third parties unless authorized; however, its use of cookies and tracking technologies on its website may be considered a sale or sharing under California law for targeted advertising purposes.

## Location tracking

The X10 uses GPS to collect location information during normal operation and this cannot be disabled because it is required for safe flight; the drone broadcasts geolocation, emergency status, speed, and controller position under the FAA's Remote ID Rule, and precise geolocation of the drone and control station may be collected and processed by Skydio.
