Terms of Service

Draft — pending review by counsel (#222). Structure and substance reflect how the product actually works; the final wording ships before the first paid exhibit.

What Atlas is

Atlas generates right-of-way parcel exhibits — PDF exhibits, KMZ files, shapefiles, and computed acreage/footage/count tables — from geospatial data you upload. It is a drafting and computation tool, not a surveying service.

Exhibits are not survey products

Deliverables generated by Atlas are not surveys, are not sealed by a licensed professional, and must not be used for construction, conveyance, or recording. Exhibits are prepared from data you supply, for negotiation and planning use. Where a deliverable carries a "NOT FOR CONSTRUCTION" notice, that notice states a condition of use, not a formality. You are responsible for review of every deliverable by an appropriately licensed professional before any regulated use.

Your data, your responsibility for it

You retain ownership of everything you upload. You represent that you have the right to upload it. Computed results are derived from your data: errors in the input produce errors in the output, and Atlas surfaces — but cannot always detect — data problems. Warnings shown on a job page are part of the deliverable.

Accounts and acceptable use

Accounts belong to your organization; keep credentials confidential. No attempting to access another organization's data, probing the service, reselling access, or uploading content you lack rights to.

Fees

Paid plans are billed as described on the pricing page at the time of purchase: an annual subscription including a set number of delivered projects, then a per-delivery charge. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly agreed.

Retention and deletion

Generated files and uploads are retained for the window stated for your plan, measured from delivery, then deleted from our servers. Records of your account and billing history persist after file deletion.

Warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability

The service is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising from the service is limited to the fees you paid in the twelve months preceding the claim, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages — including damages arising from use of a deliverable contrary to the "not a survey product" section above.

Changes

We may update these terms; material changes will be notified to the account email. Continued use after notice is acceptance.
