Terms of Service & Operational Agreement
Effective Date: July 2026. Please review our marketplace policies, escrow standards, FAA compliance rules, and enterprise AI workflow terms.
1. Scope of Platform Services
DroneGigs provides a specialized marketplace connecting clients with licensed commercial remote pilots and technical service providers. Supported services include: real estate tours, wedding and event cinematography, light shows and drone swarms, infrastructure inspections, agricultural imaging, security surveillance, construction site mapping, and tailored enterprise AI model building and system integration.
2. FAA Part 107 & Regulatory Compliance
All remote pilots offering commercial services must maintain active FAA Part 107 certification and comply with all federal, state, and local airspace regulations. Pilots are solely responsible for securing necessary airspace authorizations (LAANC, waivers), maintaining flight logs, ensuring equipment airworthiness, and carrying appropriate aviation liability insurance.
3. Escrow Funding & Platform Commission
All mission payments are processed through secure Stripe escrow. Payment is held safely in escrow until project deliverables are approved by the client. Upon approval, funds are released to the pilot minus DroneGigs' standard 20% platform commission (or applicable Pro subscription rates).
4. Custom AI Workflows & Workplace System Integration
For clients requesting tailored computer vision models, automated asset detection, or direct data pipelines into existing enterprise software systems, DroneGigs acts as a technical solution partner. Intellectual property rights for custom-built AI models are governed by individual enterprise statements of work (SOW).
5. Safety, Weather, & Event Cancellations
Pilot in command (PIC) retains absolute authority regarding flight safety, weather grounding, and airspace restrictions during events, light shows, or surveys. If a mission is canceled due to severe weather or unsafe flight conditions, escrow refunds are governed by our standard cancellation policy.
6. Data Privacy & Confidentiality
All client telemetry, high-resolution media, raw sensor files, and internal system credentials uploaded to DroneGigs are protected via 256-bit encryption. DroneGigs will never sell or distribute proprietary client imagery or custom AI data without explicit written consent.
