Privacy & Data Use

Core Principle

The Atlas of Coordination is designed to help people understand systems, not to observe, evaluate, or optimize individuals.

Data is collected only where it is necessary for system understanding, ethical boundary enforcement, and operational reliability.

What Data Is Collected

• Anonymous diagnostic responses and completion events
• High-level system interaction events (e.g. boundary encounters)
• Optional account identifiers when a user explicitly creates an account
• Minimal technical data required for security and reliability

What Is Explicitly Not Collected

• Behavioral profiles or user scoring
• Productivity, performance, or effectiveness metrics
• Personal communications or content
• Psychological, emotional, or biometric data
• Any data used for ranking, surveillance, or automated judgment of people or systems

Diagnostic Data

Diagnostic responses describe coordination structures, not people. Results are interpretive, non-evaluative, and not used to infer individual capability.

Diagnostics may be stored locally on your device or associated with an account only when you explicitly choose to save them.

Observability & Analytics

Observability is used to understand how the system behaves under load, where ethical or structural boundaries are encountered, and how coordination pressure concentrates over time.

It is not used for monitoring individuals, enforcing behavior, or evaluating outcomes.

Data Access & Retention

Access to stored data is restricted to system maintenance, safety review, and canonical research purposes.

Data is retained only as long as it is necessary for those purposes and is not sold, shared, or repurposed.
