Inner Atlas is for adults aged 18 or older. Questionnaire responses are used with predefined scoring rules to produce a self-exploration report. A paid cultural-lens reading uses the inputs you give it, such as coin tosses, card choices or, for Bazi, a birth date, time and time zone. We process responses, versioned score snapshots, saved readings, purchase records, payment email and access-verification records. These records are private, not anonymous.

Stripe processes card details; the application does not store complete card numbers or security codes. Payment email is encrypted, with a separate keyed lookup value. Resend receives the email address and message content to deliver private links and verification codes. Cloudflare supplies hosting and database infrastructure. Provider processing locations and backup retention remain under review.

Unfinished answers expire for access after 24 hours. Completion removes raw answers after score calculation. A server cleanup routine runs every hour through an external scheduler, which can occasionally be delayed, so physical deletion within 24 hours is not guaranteed. Paid score snapshots remain while purchased access is active. Saved cultural readings, including any birth details, remain until you delete them or purchased access ends, when the same cleanup clears them. Retention periods for unpaid snapshots, orders, revoked access, email delivery records and backups have not been finalized. Until they are, these records are kept, and you can ask us to delete your data as described below.

Essential browser storage supports unfinished-test recovery and owner-bound access. New devices require payment-email verification. Codes expire after 10 minutes; device verification and report links last up to 30 days. They never extend the three-calendar-month purchase access period. Email recovery is available only for active purchases. Browser recovery data is removed on completion or expired-data checks; a closed browser is not remotely cleared.

First-party measurement stores daily aggregate event counts, language, product category and progress quartile, not individual visitor records. No answers, scores, result types, email, test topic, access tokens or payment identifiers enter these counters. Do Not Track is respected. Hosting and payment providers may separately receive network information.

To ask about, correct or delete your data, email the support and privacy contact below from your payment email address. We may need to confirm that the purchase is yours, and we keep the records needed for payments, refunds, disputes and accounting.
