Technology and Indexing
Approved answers sourced from Atlas's current product, policy, and connector definitions.
How does Atlas process and index data?
Atlas stores the metadata, extracted text, previews, and operational records needed to power search.
Atlas connects to the providers you authorize, syncs supported metadata and content, stores searchable extracted text and preview data where supported, and uses those records to power search and browsing. It is designed as a connected-workspace index, not as a claim that every provider is fully copied into Atlas in identical depth.
What is the current Atlas technical architecture?
Atlas runs as a Next.js application with Prisma-backed state, connector services, sync jobs, and search/preview layers.
Atlas currently runs as a Next.js application with Prisma-managed operational state, connector adapters, sync jobs, search and preview pipelines, and workspace-level analytics and operational monitoring. Connector behavior differs by provider, so the product describes each provider according to its real category and current implementation.
Privacy and Security
Approved answers sourced from Atlas's current product, policy, and connector definitions.
How does Atlas handle privacy and security?
Atlas states only the security and privacy controls that are actually visible in the product and codebase.
Connector secrets are stored in encrypted form using the Atlas application encryption key. Authentication relies on HTTP-only session cookies for active user sessions. Preview artifacts are stored in private object storage rather than being made publicly accessible by default. Atlas limits claims in this policy to the controls that are visible in the codebase today. Atlas does not claim SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR DPA, EU representative, or data residency commitments that are not actually implemented. When a user disconnects a connector account, Atlas removes the connector record and cascades deletion of connector-linked documents and previews from the primary database. Preview artifact retention follows the configured Atlas artifact retention window where applicable, but Atlas does not promise every backup, log, or provider-side record disappears instantly. Account, session, log, and activity data are retained for operational, security, and support needs until Atlas has a fuller self-serve deletion workflow. Users can request account or data deletion by emailing akhieleshsrirangam@gmail.com. Atlas may need to keep limited records required for security, fraud prevention, or legal compliance.
