Social Licence StatementUncrewed Approvals commitment to the socially responsible operation of drones

At Uncrewed Approvals, we believe that flying drones responsibly isn’t just about safety and rules — it’s about being good neighbours and good community members.

We want the people and places we work around to feel comfortable, informed, and respected. That means operating in an open, considerate, and community-aligned way.

Our Commitment to You

We promise to:

  • Be respectful and transparent
    We’ll explain what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and when we’ll be doing it — in plain language, not aviation jargon.
  • Keep communication open
    If you have questions or concerns, we’ll listen. We aim to respond respectfully and in a timely manner.

Respecting Privacy — Aligned with Our Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. Just like our privacy commitments outlined in our Privacy Policy, we pledge that:

  • Only necessary information is collected — whether that’s visual data from a drone or contact information for communications.
  • Information is stored and used responsibly — we won’t share or keep personal data longer than needed without a good reason.
  • Personal information is protected — using suitable security measures and clear guidelines on what we do with it.

We handle personal information in line with our published Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, manage, and protect it.

Safe and Responsible Flying

We plan all drone flights carefully to prioritise safety and minimise impact. This includes:

  • avoiding filming people or private property unless necessary for the task
  • not recording audio
  • flying at appropriate altitudes and distances
  • adjusting plans if safety or community comfort could be improved

Community Awareness and Engagement

Where it makes sense, we will:

  • let nearby residents or landholders know about upcoming drone work
  • be identifiable on site with clear company branding
  • explain what we’re doing if someone asks

We want you to feel confident and informed, not surprised.

Environmental and Cultural Respect

We also take care to:

  • consider impact on local wildlife and the environment
  • respect culturally significant places and Traditional Owners’ connections when applicable

We’re Here to Talk

Your feedback helps us do better. If you have questions, concerns or suggestions about our drone operations, please reach out:

Phone: (07) 3221 1960

We’re always happy to listen, explain, and work through concerns in a positive way.

Our Promise

We’ll continue improving how we operate and how we engage with communities so that drones are seen not just as technology, but as a positive part of local life.
