Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2, 2026
1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how Atlas DevHQ ("Atlas", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use Atlas Cloud at app.useatlas.dev.
If you self-host Atlas, your data stays entirely on your infrastructure. This policy applies to Atlas Cloud only.
2. Data We Collect
We collect the following categories of data:
Account information. Name, email address, and organization details provided during signup. If you use SSO, we receive identity attributes from your identity provider.
Query and conversation history. The natural-language questions you ask, the SQL queries Atlas generates, and the results returned. This data is stored in your workspace and is accessible to your team.
Semantic layer configuration. Entity definitions, metrics, glossary terms, and query patterns you configure to describe your datasources.
Usage metrics. Query counts, token usage, feature usage, and performance data. These are used for billing, capacity planning, and service improvement.
Audit logs. Records of administrative actions (user management, configuration changes, access events) for security and compliance.
Technical data. IP addresses, browser type, and device information collected automatically for security and debugging.
3. How We Use Your Data
- Service operation. Processing your queries, managing your workspace, and providing the Atlas agent experience.
- Billing. Tracking usage against your plan limits and processing payments through Stripe.
- Security. Detecting abuse, enforcing rate limits, and maintaining audit trails.
- Service improvement. Aggregate, anonymized usage patterns to improve Atlas. We do not use your queries, results, or datasource content to train AI models.
- Communication. Account notifications, security alerts, and product updates. You can unsubscribe from non-essential emails at any time.
4. LLM Providers
Atlas sends your natural-language questions, relevant semantic context, and query results to the configured LLM provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, or another provider you select) so the agent can generate SQL, interpret results, and respond. Result data is not stored by Atlas beyond what is retained in your conversation history.
Each LLM provider has its own data handling policies. When using BYOT (bring your own token), your queries are processed under your direct agreement with the LLM provider.
5. Data Retention and Deletion
- Conversation history. Retained for the duration of your subscription. Workspace administrators can configure retention periods.
- Audit logs.Retained according to your plan's audit retention policy (configurable for Enterprise).
- Account data. Retained while your account is active. After cancellation, data is available read-only for 30 days, then permanently deleted.
- Backups. Encrypted backups are retained for disaster recovery and are purged on the same schedule as primary data.
You can request immediate deletion of your data at any time by contacting privacy@useatlas.dev.
6. Subprocessors
We use the following subprocessors to operate Atlas Cloud:
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Railway | Infrastructure hosting | US / EU (configurable) |
| Stripe | Payment processing | US |
| OpenStatus | Uptime monitoring | EU |
| Anthropic | Default LLM provider | US |
Enterprise customers with data residency requirements can choose their deployment region. We will notify you of changes to our subprocessor list at least 30 days in advance.
