Summary/Abstract: The increasing number of drones flying over buildings, fields, and people's heads raises questions about safety, privacy, and the existence of regulations regarding their technical parameters, public space rules, restrictions, and requirements for their owners' authorization. Drones are being used by various organizations, defense and security forces, researchers, as well as civilian population. The purpose of this article is to draw attention to the fact that the use of drones is not indifferent to either the European Union or the Slovak Republic. The European Union is gradually unifying legislative procedures and regulations for the use of drones and setting conditions for their users, who must also comply with European rules for the operation of unmanned aircraft systems. The questionnaire research was primarily aimed at finding out the level of knowledge among students about the legislation on the private and educational use of drones.
