Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 23, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Atlas website may collect, use, retain, and protect information when you visit the site, contact Atlas, or opt in to communications.
1. Information We May Collect
Depending on the features you use, Atlas may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, mobile telephone number, organization, project interests, and the contents of messages you send. Basic technical information such as browser type, device information, IP address, referring page, and site activity may also be processed by the hosting platform or analytics/security services if those services are enabled.
2. How We Use Information
Information may be used to respond to inquiries, provide requested information or services, operate and secure the site, support project discussions, maintain business records, improve Atlas content and functionality, and send communications that you have requested or consented to receive.
3. SMS and Mobile Information
If you provide a mobile telephone number and expressly opt in to SMS communications, Atlas will use that number to provide the messaging described at the point of consent. Message frequency may vary, and message and data rates may apply. You may reply STOP to opt out and HELP for assistance.
Mobile information, including phone numbers, SMS opt-in data, and consent records, will not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. Atlas may disclose information to service providers that process communications on Atlas's behalf only as necessary to provide the requested service, operate the messaging program, prevent fraud or abuse, or comply with law. SMS consent is not transferred to unrelated third parties for independent marketing.
4. Sharing of Information
Atlas does not sell personal information. Information may be shared with vendors or infrastructure providers that perform services on behalf of Atlas, such as website hosting, communications delivery, security, analytics, or business operations, subject to appropriate contractual or operational safeguards. Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with law, legal process, protect rights or safety, investigate abuse, or complete a business transaction permitted by law.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The current static Atlas site may use essential browser features and may be deployed through hosting or delivery services that generate ordinary server logs. If analytics, cookies, or additional tracking technologies are added in the future, this policy will be updated as appropriate.
6. Data Retention
Atlas retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate business and compliance records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and satisfy legal obligations. Retention periods may vary by category of information.
7. Security
Atlas uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information being handled. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
8. Your Choices
You may choose not to provide optional personal information. You may request that Atlas correct or delete information you have submitted, subject to legal, security, and record-retention requirements. Marketing email can be discontinued through any provided unsubscribe mechanism, and SMS messages can be stopped by replying STOP.
9. Children's Privacy
The Atlas site is intended for general professional and adult audiences and is not directed to children under 13. Atlas does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site.
10. External Links
The site may link to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.
11. Policy Updates
Atlas may update this Privacy Policy as the site, services, or legal requirements change. Material revisions will be reflected by updating the effective date above.
12. Contact
Privacy questions or requests may be submitted through the Contact page.
