Guidance bookings
UCO Aero uses Microsoft Bookings for 1-on-1 guidance appointments. When
you book a session, your booking details may be processed through Microsoft
services, including calendar, email and booking management tools.
Booking information may include your name, email address, phone number,
selected slot, meeting details and any information you provide while booking.
05
Careers, applications and CV links
If you apply for a role, submit your profile or register interest in an
opportunity, we may collect information needed to review your suitability.
This may include your CV, profile links, work samples, education details,
contact details and role preferences.
If an opportunity is external, we will not intentionally forward your CV
or profile to third parties without appropriate context or consent.
06
When we may share information
We may share limited information only when necessary for legitimate
operational purposes, such as:
- Using Microsoft 365 services for email, bookings and internal coordination.
- Using website hosting or CMS tools to operate the platform.
- Sharing opportunity-related information when you have requested or approved it.
- Responding to legal, regulatory or security requirements where applicable.
We do not sell user, applicant or guidance data to advertisers, recruiters
or unrelated third parties.
07
Storage and security
We aim to keep personal information reasonably secure using trusted tools,
access controls and responsible internal handling practices.
During the early stage of UCO Aero, information may be handled through
Microsoft 365 services, website hosting tools, email systems and later,
an approved CMS or database system.
No online system is completely risk-free, but we will work to reduce
unnecessary exposure and restrict access to information that does not need
to be widely available.
08
How long we keep information
We keep information only as long as it is useful for the purpose for which
it was collected, such as guidance follow-up, application review, opportunity
tracking, operational records or legal requirements.
You may contact us to request correction, updating or deletion of your
information where applicable.
09
Analytics and website improvement
We may later use analytics tools such as Microsoft Clarity or similar
services to understand website performance, page usage, scrolling, clicks
and content engagement.
Before final launch of analytics, we intend to add a proper consent banner
and avoid collecting sensitive form contents through analytics tools.
10

- Access to information you provided to us.
