Aviator is committed to protecting the privacy of users of the Website. We will use reasonable efforts to see that all information, identifying and otherwise, submitted to us by users, remains private and is used only for the purposes set forth herein. Furthermore, we believe that our online users have a right to know what information we collect when you visit our Website.

What Information Do We Collect and How Do We Collect It?
In general, when you visit our Website, we do not collect personally identifiable information about you. When you request access to our Website, you will be asked to supply information such as your name, e-mail address, phone number and certain information regarding your qualification status as an “accredited investor” and/or as a “qualified purchaser.”
