Effective date: July 18th, 2021

Atlas and the national/regional/international Atlas organizations in the Atlas network (hereafter: : ‘Atlas’, ‘we’, ‘us’, ‘our’) are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. Atlas is, for the purposes of this privacy policy, the “Controller” with respect to any personal data you provide to us by using our website and its functions. A controller is the legal person who determines the purposes and means of the use (‘processing’) of your personal information. 

This privacy statement sets out the basis on which we will process any personal information that we may collect about you as a visitor to our website. We therefore ask you to read this privacy statement carefully.

3. Definitions

“Personal information” means any information relating to a living, identifiable person. It can include names, addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses etc, but it is wider than that and includes any other information relating to that person or a combination of information which, if put together, means that the person can be identified.

“Processing” means all activities relating to the use of personal information by an organisation, from its collection through to its storage and disposal and everything in between.

“Data subject” means the person whose personal information is being processed.

4. Principles

Atlas complies with the following principles of data protection:

• Lawfulness, transparency, and fairness;
• Purpose limitation;
• Data minimisation;
• Accuracy;
• Storage limitation;
• Confidentiality and integrity.

Your privacy and your security is of the utmost importance to us. We will, at all times, adhere to these principles when processing personal information.

  • Our website may also download “cookies” to your device – this is described in our cookie statement (below)

3. Atlas cookies policy

We want to ensure that you enjoy browsing our website. In order to enhance your experience and collect information about your use of our site, we place “cookies” onto your computer.

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie:

• cookies allow our systems to recognise the user’s device and make any presettings immediately available
• as soon as a user accesses the platform, a cookie is sent to the hard disk of the respective user’s computer

Cookies are useful because they:

• allow a website to recognise a user’s device and to target the content displayed to the user’s interests
• help us to improve our website
• offer you a better service more tailored to your requirements
• enable us to recognise your device when you return to our website
• store information about your favourite activities on the website, thereby allowing us to tailor our website to your individual interests. This may, for example, include advertising according to your personal interests and accelerate the rate at which we can deal with your queries

By using our website you agree that, unless you have set your computer’s browser to reject them, we can place the types of cookies set out below on your device and use that data in accordance with this policy.

You can find more information about cookies at: www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu, for a video about cookies check www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBR-xtJVq7E.

Types of cookies

A cookie is a small text file that’s stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Whenever a browser requests an object from the same website or domain in the future, the browser (if you allow) will send the same small text file back to the origin server.

We use (or will use) cookies to:

• Remember your preferences
• Tailor our website to your interests, proposing content that may be relevant to you, based on past interactions

There are different types of cookies

First party cookies

There are two broad types of cookies – ‘first party cookies’ and ‘third party cookies’:

• First party cookies are cookies that are served directly by the website operator to your computer, and are often used to recognise your computer when it revisits that site and to remember your preferences as you browse the site. Basically, these are our cookies.
• Third party cookies are served by a service provider on behalf of the website operator, and can be used by the service provider to recognise your computer when you visit other websites. Third party cookies are most commonly used for website analytics or advertising purposes.

Use of cookies

This table explains the cookies that may be placed on your machine while using this website and why.

Atlas does not govern the publication of third-party cookies. Please visit the relevant third parties’ website if you want to understand more about these cookies, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or YouTube.

If you do not want to use cookies, you can set your browser so that the storage of cookies is not accepted.

If you only want to accept our own cookies but not the cookies of our service providers and partners, select the “block third-party cookies” (or similar setting in your browser).

Cookies and personal information

Cookies do not contain any information that personally identifies you, but personal information that we store about you may be linked, by us, to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.

Blocking / deleting Cookies

Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies, manage previously accepted ones or delete existing ones on your device. Click your browser type below to go directly to the browser user guide to learn how to disable or erase cookies.

• Chrome
• Firefox
• Internet Explorer
• Microsoft Edge

• Safari

Blocking all cookies will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites.

Which cookies would you like to accept?

Please select the type of cookies you're willing to accept

Necessary cookies

These cookies are needed for you to move around the website and access its features. Without these cookies you cannot access the services you may have requested.

Performance cookies

These cookies help to improve the Atlas website. We set cookies to collect anonymous data on things like how long a visitor stays on a certain page, or which links they click. This helps us to make better content for a better world.

Use of Google Analytics

Atlas uses Google Analytics to gather visitors’ use of our website and analyze the data to help us maintain and improve the design of our website. Google Analytics generates statistical and other information about website use by means of cookies, which are stored on users’ computers.

Should you not be willing to get the analytics cookies, please change you cookies settings above (‘change your cookies preferences’). 

As mentioned before, Google Analytics cookies used in this website are _utma, _utmb, _utmc, _utmz, _ga and _gid – and they all collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, browser ClientID (to identify returning users, for example), where visitors come to the site from and the pages they visited. Here’s the privacy overview of Google Analytics, the Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Websites and here how to easily opt-out of Google Analytics cookies.

As of May 2018, Google Analytics introduced the Data Retention controls, giving organizations the ability to set the amount of time before user-level and event-level data stored by Google Analytics is automatically deleted from Analytics’ servers.

Such retention period applies to user-level and event-level data associated with cookies, user-identifiers (e.g. User-ID) and advertising identifiers (not applicable in Atlas websites anyway). For Atlas, the Data Retention control for Google Analytics is set to 26 months. Once again, Analytics will not collect the internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your device to the internet.

Besides, it is important to mention that Google stores websites traffic information which have Google Analytics tracking code. Check Google’s privacy policy and how to opt-out of Google Analytics cookies.

You can install the “Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on” to prevent information about your visits to our website being sent to Google Analytics.

Use of social networks sharing buttons and widgets

Beside the customized HTML buttons we installed to allow you to share Atlas content on Facebook and Twitter, we may embed widgets from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or YouTube and other social media on our website to provide an enhanced experience.

These social networking  widgets come from web servers which may track your behaviour on our website and may combine this with other information about you originating from other websites. You can install a browser add-ons like “Privacy Badger” for Chrome or “Disconnect” for Chrome and Firefox to control some (the first) or disable them (the second).

We Are Not Responsible for User Contributions

We cannot review everything that is posted by users in advance, so any content and/or opinions uploaded, expressed or submitted to the site, and all User Contributions, including, articles, responses to questions, and other content, other than the content officially provided by Atlas are solely the opinions and the responsibility of the person or entity submitting them and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of Atlas. We are not responsible, or liable to any third party, for the content or accuracy of any materials posted by you or any other user of this website and you agree to bear full responsibility for the content you post to the site. While we try to investigate all credible complaints about objectionable User Contributions, we cannot ensure individual responses or removal of such content. 

Enforcement of Terms

Because the purpose of this website is to serve the Atlas mission on behalf of the Atlas community, in order to ensure that it is used only for its intended purpose and that no use of the site endangers Atlas’s broader mission, Atlas has the right to:

• Remove or refuse to post any User Contributions for any or no reason. This is a decision Atlas will strive to make fairly, but ultimately it is a decision that is solely up to Atlas to make. It will be our general practice, however, to consult with our members including through randomized polling to determine what user contributions our membership views as advancing our mission. At all points in this process we will welcome feedback from the community on how we make these decisions as it is the community’s ability to achieve our mission that we are here to serve. But in the end, Atlas has a legal obligation to ensure that all of our activities advance our mission and we therefore must reserve final judgment on upholding this requirement.
• Take any action with respect to any User Contribution that we deem necessary or appropriate in our sole discretion if we believe that such User Contribution violates the Terms of Use, including the Content Standards, infringes any intellectual property right or other right, threatens the personal safety of users of this website and the public or could create liability for Atlas.
• Disclose your identity to any third party who claims that material posted by you violates their rights, including their intellectual property rights or their right to privacy. We will not do this lightly, but if we think it has the potential to facilitate a fair and just resolution of the dispute, or will protect Atlas from liability for which we are not responsible, we may take this step.
• Take appropriate legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of this website when we determine law enforcement is the proper and appropriate means for addressing the offending use.
• Terminate your access to all or part of this website for any violation of these Terms of Use.

You waive and hold harmless Atlas from any claims resulting from any action taken by Atlas during or as a result of its investigations and from any actions taken as a consequence of investigations by either Atlas or law enforcement authorities.

If there are other websites and resources linked to on this site, either by Atlas or by you, these links are provided only for the convenience of our users.
