Protecting Contributors and Sensitive Locations

We prioritize the safety of civilians and contributors when handling data about UAV strikes and architecture as response. Privacy-conscious defaults guide every step of our workflow.

Data We Collect

Only the minimum details required for spatial analysis and verification are retained.

Geospatial coordinates, timestamps, and incident descriptors related to UAV strikes
Media metadata only when necessary for verification, with personal identifiers removed
Optional contributor contact information solely for follow-ups and attribution preferences

How Data Is Used

Submissions support evidence-based research and are never sold or repurposed for advertising.

Spatial analysis of architecture as response and UAV strike patterns
Quality assurance, deduplication, and contextual enrichment for research reproducibility
Aggregated visualizations and time-series trends shared with the research community

Safeguards

Controls that prevent sensitive or high-risk data from being exposed in visualizations.

Access controls for raw submissions; only aggregated data appears on public maps
Location masking or suppression for sensitive sites and active operations
Encryption in transit and at rest for stored submissions and supporting materials

Your Rights

We respond promptly to requests about how submissions are stored, used, or credited.

Request removal or correction of data you have provided
Opt out of attribution or choose how you are credited
