Terms of Use

1. About these terms

These terms apply to SkyNexus, the web app at app.skynexus.nl and the website at skynexus.nl. SkyNexus is run by Joeri.dev, registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK) under number 89582292 ("SkyNexus", "we", "us").

By creating an account or using SkyNexus you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use SkyNexus.

2. For flight simulation only

SkyNexus is a free, web-based electronic flight bag (EFB) for flight simulation. It is made for use with flight simulators and online networks such as VATSIM and IVAO.

SkyNexus is not for real-world navigation, flight planning or any other operational use. Do not use anything it shows (procedures, charts, performance figures, weather, NOTAMs, briefings or any other output) to plan or fly a real aircraft. It is not an approved or certified EFB and it is not a replacement for official, current aeronautical information.

3. No warranty

We put a lot of care into SkyNexus, but it is provided "as is" and "as available". The data in it comes from many sources, is processed automatically and may be incomplete, out of date or wrong. We do not promise that SkyNexus is accurate, complete, available at any given moment or free of errors.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage that comes from using SkyNexus or from relying on what it shows. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under Dutch law, such as liability for intent or deliberate recklessness, or rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived.

4. Your account

• Use a valid email address that is yours, and keep your password to yourself.
• An account is for one person. Do not share it or let others use it.
• You are responsible for what happens under your account. If you think someone else has access to it, change your password and let us know.
• You can delete your account at any time from the settings menu in the app (Delete Account).

5. Acceptable use

When you use SkyNexus, you agree not to:

• break the law or anyone else's rights;
• access SkyNexus with bots, scripts, crawlers or other automated tools, other than the requests the app itself makes while you use it;
• get around access controls, feature flags, rate limits or suspensions, for example by using several accounts;
• interfere with SkyNexus, overload it or try to reach parts of it, its servers or its data that you have not been given access to;
• copy, decompile or reverse engineer the app, except where the law gives you that right;
• use SkyNexus to harass, mislead or harm other people.

6. Procedure and aerodrome data

SkyNexus draws departure procedures (SIDs), arrival procedures (STARs), approaches and airport diagrams. This data comes from official state sources, each under its own terms. Examples:

• the FAA (United States), public domain;
• DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung and the BAF (Germany);
• the SIA (France), under the Licence Ouverte;
• LVNL (the Netherlands);
• Austro Control (Austria), under CC BY 4.0;
• Fintraffic (Finland);
• other aeronautical information services. Where permission from a source is still being arranged, its data is used only for testing by a small group and becomes available to all users once that permission is in place.

The source and its attribution are shown in the app next to the data. Those attributions and the source's own terms are part of these terms.

You may view this data in the app for your own, personal flight simulation use. That is the only use allowed. In particular, you may not:

• extract, scrape, bulk download or otherwise collect the data, by hand or with automated tools;
• store or keep copies of the data outside the normal working of the app;
• redistribute, publish, share, sell, license or otherwise make the data available to others, for free or for money;
• use the data, or anything derived from it, to build or improve another dataset, database, navigation database, product or service, including training machine learning models.

The selection, processing and presentation of this data in SkyNexus took a great deal of work. Some of it is protected as a database, and some sources only allow us to show it under these conditions. If you want to use the data for something else, go to the original source and its terms.

To protect the data, SkyNexus limits how much procedure and aerodrome data one account can load per minute and per day. Usage that looks like collecting data in bulk leads to an automatic temporary suspension of access to the procedure and aerodrome data, for longer periods if it happens again. The rest of the app keeps working during a suspension. We may also end access to this data, or close an account, if these terms are broken.

7. Third-party services

SkyNexus connects to services run by others, such as SimBrief and Navigraph, ChartFox, VATSIM, IVAO and weather data providers. When you link an account or use data from those services, their own terms and privacy policies apply as well. We are not responsible for those services, their data or their availability.

8. Suspension and ending your use

We may suspend or end your access to SkyNexus, or to parts of it, if you break these terms, if your use puts SkyNexus or its data at risk, or if the law requires it. Where reasonable we will tell you why. We may also change or stop (parts of) SkyNexus, which is a free service, at any time.

9. Privacy

How we handle personal data is described in the Privacy Policy. Questions about your data can be sent to email@joeri.dev.

10. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms, for example when SkyNexus gets new features or new data sources. The date at the top of this page shows which version applies. We will tell you about important changes in the app or by email before they take effect. If you keep using SkyNexus after a change takes effect, the new terms apply.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by Dutch law. Disputes go to the competent court in the Netherlands. If you are a consumer living elsewhere in the European Union, you keep the protection that the mandatory law of your country gives you, and you may also go to the courts there.
