Privacy

How Atlas Online keeps the little it asks of you. Last changed 9 November 2026.

Who we are

Atlas Online is made by 4 THE PEOPLE LIMITED, a New Zealand company. We follow New Zealand's Privacy Act 2020. Questions about your details: privacy@atlas.kiwi.

What we keep

• Your account name and password. The password is kept only as a one-way scrambled form (scrypt), never as you typed it.
• Your email address, and that you ticked "I am 18 or over".
• When you joined.
• Your hero, once you make one: their name and look.

Nothing else: no real name, birthday, address, phone number or payment details. We never ask for them.

Why

• Your account and password: so you can sign in, here and in the game at launch.
• Your email: only to tell you when the game opens. Nothing is sent to it before then. It is never shown to anyone, on any page, and never sold, shared or used for advertising.
• Your hero: to carry them into the game, and to show their name and look in the Hall of Heroes, where everyone can see them. Your account name and email are never shown there.

Where it is kept, and who sees it

On Atlas Online's own server, hosted by Render in Singapore, with its daily backups. Only 4 THE PEOPLE LIMITED can read it.

Cookies

One cookie, set when you sign in, keeps you signed in for 30 days. No tracking, no advertising, no analytics. The lettering is loaded from Google Fonts, so Google sees that your browser asked for it.

How long, and deleting it

We keep your details until you delete your account. Delete my account (on your account page, once signed in) removes your account, email and characters at once; copies in the server's backups go as those backups expire. If you cannot sign in, write to privacy@atlas.kiwi.

Your rights

You may ask to see what we keep about you and to have it corrected: write to privacy@atlas.kiwi. If you are not happy with our answer, you can complain to New Zealand's Office of the Privacy Commissioner (privacy.org.nz).

Adults only

Atlas Online is for people 18 and over. If we learn an account belongs to someone younger, we delete it.
