Terms & Conditions

Overview 

Aero National Drones (“AND”) is a marketplace platform that connects FAA-certified drone pilots with businesses and individuals in need of aerial services. By using the AND website, you agree to these Terms & Conditions, whether you are a client or a drone pilot. 

Platform Role & Limitation of Liability 

AND provides a listing and connection platform only. We do not operate drones, employ pilots, or guarantee the quality, legality, or safety of any pilot’s work. 

Disclaimer: AND is not liable for: 

  • Pilot errors, crashes, or damage to property 
  • Misrepresentation by users 
  • FAA violations or regulatory issues 
  • Lack of insurance or permit coverage 

All users are responsible for performing their own due diligence before hiring or accepting jobs. 

Pilot Membership & Subscription 

Pilots must register and verify their FAA certification to be listed. Once approved: 

  • Monthly membership: $9.99 
  • Annual membership: $99 (non-refundable) 

Refund Policy 

  • Monthly plan: Refunds available within the first 30 days only

Membership auto-renews unless cancelled via dashboard prior to the billing cycle. 

Client Job Postings 

Clients can: 

  • Sign up and create a profile 
  • Post job listings publicly 
  • Mark jobs as “filled” 
  • Communicate with pilots via in-platform messaging 

Job listings will expire automatically after 14 days unless extended or marked filled. AND reserves the right to remove incomplete or inappropriate listings. 

Messaging & Communication 

Clients and pilots may communicate via secure in-platform messaging. Direct email or phone contact is not shared unless both parties voluntarily disclose it. 

All conversations must remain professional. Abuse, harassment, or spam will result in account suspension. 

FAA Compliance 

All pilots using AND agree to abide by FAA regulations and fly only when legally permitted. 

If a pilot is found operating illegally or with a suspended/revoked FAA license: 

  • AND reserves the right to suspend or terminate their profile 
  • Clients may report misconduct directly through a reporting form on pilot profiles 

FAA Violation Reporting: 

  • Anonymous reports accepted 
  • Evidence (photos, video, FAA notices) encouraged 

AND is not liable for illegal flights or regulatory breaches. All users assume responsibility for their own compliance. 

Insurance & Risk 

Insurance is optional but strongly encouraged for pilots. 

  • Pilots may list their insurance provider and coverage status on their profile 
  • Clients are responsible for confirming insurance coverage before hiring 

Disclaimer: AND does not verify pilot insurance and is not liable for accidents or damage caused during drone operations. 

Account Termination & Misuse 

AND reserves the right to suspend or remove accounts for: 

  • Fraud or misrepresentation 
  • Harassment or abusive behavior 
  • Repeated cancellations or platform misuse 
  • FAA violations 
  • Violation of these terms 

Clients misusing the system (e.g. impersonation, false job postings, pilot abuse) will also be banned. 

Dispute Resolution 

AND is not responsible for resolving disputes between clients and pilots. We are a listing platform only. 

Users are encouraged to handle disagreements professionally. Repeated disputes may lead to review or removal from the platform. 

Jurisdiction & Governing Law 

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Oregon. All legal matters will be handled in accordance with Oregon state and U.S. federal law.

We may revise these terms at any time. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes agreement to the updated terms.
