Pilot Logbook is built and published by 403 Studio. We understand the critical nature of flight deck data and are committed to maintaining the absolute confidentiality of your logs and duty metrics. This policy outlines how your data is handled.
Pilot Logbook allows you to log flight entries, block times, air times, landing counts, night calculations, duty tracking parameters, and aviation documents. Your flight logs are securely backed up on our Supabase server and can be accessed by PC or on your iOS device using your own credentials—which we do not have access to. We will never share, sell, or monetize your flight logs.
By signing into your Pilot Logbook account on your iPhone or iPad, your logbook data is synchronized securely with our website database. This ensures your logs are backed up and accessible from any supported browser on PC or iOS devices.
Pilot Logbook requests camera access for one purpose only: scanning your paper logbook pages and aviation documents so you can import them without retyping. Camera scanning is processed entirely on your device—text recognition and AI extraction run locally, and camera captures are never uploaded to our servers or any third party. Only the entries you review and save become part of your logbook. The app does not request access to GPS Location Services, Contacts, or Microphone, and does not integrate any third-party behavioral tracking SDKs. If you add the home screen widget, your hour totals and next document expiry are stored on your device only.
Optional cloud AI extraction. When you choose to upload a photo or PDF and enable AI-enhanced extraction (and always when scanning from the website, which has no on-device scanner), that file is transmitted over an encrypted connection to our processing service, which uses Anthropic's Claude API solely to extract the logbook or document fields. The file is processed transiently, is not used to train AI models, and is not retained by us after processing. This is opt-in on the app: if you never enable it, your images never leave your device.
You have full control over your data. You can access, export, modify, or delete your account and all associated flight logs at any time directly through the app settings or by logging into your profile on our website.
