Privacy Policy
Last updated 10 August 2026
CcsSync is a desktop application that reads a flight schedule from
United's CCS+ system and writes it into a calendar you choose - Outlook
(via Microsoft) or Google Calendar. This page explains what data that
requires, where it goes, and what CcsSync does not do with it.
What CcsSync accesses, and why
- Your CCS+ sync password. The password you set in
United's CCS+ site under Schedule Settings → Calendar syncing.
It is stored encrypted on your own PC and is sent only to United's
own CCS+ system, to download your schedule. It is never sent to
CcsSync's developer or to any server other than United's.
- Calendar write access. If you connect Outlook,
CcsSync asks Microsoft for permission to create, update, and delete
events in the calendar you pick, through Microsoft's own sign-in and
Graph API - this works with either a personal Microsoft account or
a Microsoft 365 work/school account. If you connect Google
Calendar, the same applies through Google's own sign-in and Calendar
API. In both cases the sign-in and consent happen with Microsoft or
Google directly - CcsSync never sees or stores your Microsoft or
Google password.
- A license key. If you activate a subscription, the
key you enter is sent to Lemon Squeezy, the service that handles
billing and license activation for CcsSync, to confirm it's valid
for this PC. Lemon Squeezy's own privacy policy covers what they do
with billing information.
What CcsSync does not do
- It does not run any server of its own that your schedule or
calendar data passes through. CcsSync runs on your own PC: it
downloads your schedule directly from United to your PC, then
writes it directly from your PC to Microsoft or Google's calendar.
United never talks to Microsoft or Google, and nothing in between
ever holds a copy - your PC is the only place the two sides of that
sync ever meet.
- It does not contain advertising, analytics, or third-party
tracking of any kind.
- It does not sell, rent, or share your data with anyone, for any
purpose.
- Its log file and local records (including the flight history it
keeps so you have a record of trips even after United stops
publishing them) stay on your own PC. Nothing is uploaded
automatically. If you ever contact support, sending a copy of the
log is something you choose to do, not something that happens on
its own.
Where your data lives
Everything CcsSync stores - your encrypted CCS+ password, your
settings, your synced trip history, and its log - lives in a folder
under your own Windows user profile
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCSSync). Nothing leaves your PC except
what's described above.
Uninstalling CcsSync removes the program but deliberately
keeps this data folder - it does not delete it. That's on
purpose: once United stops publishing a flown trip, CcsSync cannot get
it back, so your flight history is treated as something too valuable
to risk losing to an uninstall. A separate copy of your flight
history is also kept at Documents\CcsSync\Flight history.ics
in your Documents folder, for the same reason, and that copy is
likewise untouched by uninstalling or by deleting the AppData folder
above. If you want everything gone, both locations need to be
deleted by hand.
Third-party services CcsSync relies on
- United Airlines' CCS+ system, for your schedule
- Microsoft Graph API, if you sync to Outlook (personal or
Microsoft 365 work/school accounts both work)
- Google Calendar API, if you sync to Google Calendar
- Lemon Squeezy, for license and subscription management
Each of these has its own privacy policy governing how they handle
data once CcsSync has sent it to them.
Children
CcsSync is a scheduling tool for airline crew members and is not
directed at, marketed to, or knowingly used by children.
