How The Atlas Uses Information
Personal information is used to help the Atlas remember, organize, recommend, protect, and respond. It is not gathered to sell your tasting history, chase advertising, or manipulate what a bottle means to you.
Your Control
Your profile, membership details, and account settings should remain clear and manageable.
Your tasting notes are yours to refine as memory becomes more precise.
The bottles you keep, remove, favorite, or seek should reflect your current Atlas.
Account deletion belongs in the member privacy lifecycle and requires careful handling.
Data portability is reserved as a future member capability, designed before activation rather than added casually.
Security Philosophy
Passwords, accounts, and sessions are treated as protected parts of the member experience. The Atlas should keep the mechanics of security in the background while making the promise clear: private records deserve careful protection.

Information is used to provide the Atlas, maintain member accounts, preserve personal tasting records, generate personal recommendations, respond to messages, improve editorial accuracy, protect the platform, and meet legal or operational obligations.
Whiskey Flavor Atlas does not sell personal tasting history, private journal entries, flavor profile data, or member collection records. Personal Atlas records are not used as advertising inventory.
Limited information may be processed by approved service providers that help operate hosting, authentication, email, analytics, payments, security, or support. Providers must be reviewed before production use and may use information only for the approved Atlas purpose.
