Terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of Atlas Engine’s websites, applications, APIs, dashboards, and related services (collectively, the “Services”). By creating an account, clicking to accept these Terms, or using the Services, you agree to be bound by them.

If you are using the Services on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to bind that entity to these Terms. In that case, “you” and “your” refer to that entity.

1. Who We Are

Atlas Engine (“Atlas Engine,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides software tools that help users connect social media accounts, create and manage content, schedule and publish content, and review account and post analytics.

2. Eligibility and Account Registration

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:

you are legally able to enter into these Terms;
all registration information you submit is accurate and complete;
you will keep your account information current;
you will maintain the security of your login credentials; and
you are responsible for all activities that occur under your account.

You may not share your account with unauthorized persons or use another user’s account without permission.

3. Description of the Services

Atlas Engine enables users to:

connect third-party social media and content distribution accounts;
authorize Atlas Engine to access certain account data and permissions you grant;
draft, organize, schedule, and publish content to supported third-party platforms;
retrieve and display account-level and content-level analytics and insights where supported; and
manage workflows related to social media publishing and reporting.

Features may vary by subscription tier, platform availability, permissions granted, and third-party API limitations.

4. Third-Party Platforms and Connected Accounts

The Services may integrate with third-party platforms, including Meta, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and others (each, a “Third-Party Platform”).

4.1 Your authorization

By connecting a Third-Party Platform account, you authorize Atlas Engine to access and use the data, content, permissions, and functionality you choose to grant through that platform’s authentication and authorization process.

4.2 Third-party terms apply

Your use of any connected Third-Party Platform remains subject to that platform’s own terms, policies, community guidelines, API terms, developer terms, partner terms, monetization rules, advertising rules, and privacy practices. You are solely responsible for complying with all applicable Third-Party Platform requirements.

Without limiting the foregoing, if you connect or use accounts through TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, YouTube, or any other supported platform, you agree that you will comply with the then-current terms, policies, and rules of each such platform, including any rules relating to:

account eligibility and identity;
authorized access and account ownership;
content standards and community guidelines;
intellectual property and rights clearance;
disclosures, endorsements, sponsorships, and advertising compliance;
automation, scraping, rate limits, and API usage restrictions;
publishing permissions, moderation, and prohibited content;
analytics access, reporting, and data retention restrictions; and
developer, partner, and platform integration requirements.

You further acknowledge and agree that Atlas Engine is intended to operate only in a manner permitted by the relevant Third-Party Platform, and you may not use the Services in any way that would cause Atlas Engine or your connected accounts to violate the terms or policies of TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, YouTube, or any other supported platform.

4.3 Platform limitations and changes

Atlas Engine does not control Third-Party Platforms. Third-Party Platforms may change their APIs, permissions, features, review requirements, access models, rate limits, content rules, or account restrictions at any time. As a result, parts of the Services may stop working, work differently, or become unavailable without notice.

4.4 Account ownership and authority

You represent and warrant that, for every connected account, page, profile, business asset, or channel:

you own it or have full authority to connect and manage it;
you have authority to publish content and retrieve analytics for it; and
your use of the Services for that account does not violate any law, contract, employment duty, agency relationship, or platform rule.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of Atlas Engine with TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, YouTube, or any other supported platform is authorized under the applicable account, page, channel, business, workspace, or organization permissions for that platform.

4.5 Revocation and disconnects

You may revoke Atlas Engine’s access through the relevant Third-Party Platform or through the Services. Revoking access may disable some or all functionality related to that account.

the User Content is not misleading, deceptive, defamatory, unlawful, abusive, harassing, hateful, fraudulent, or otherwise prohibited.

7. Publishing, Scheduling, and Delivery

Atlas Engine may provide tools for drafting, scheduling, queuing, and publishing content to Third-Party Platforms.

You acknowledge and agree that:

scheduling and publishing may depend on Third-Party Platform availability, permissions, token validity, API responsiveness, and account status;
publication times may vary and are not guaranteed to be exact;
published content may fail, be delayed, be modified by the platform, or be rejected by the platform;
Atlas Engine is not responsible for platform moderation decisions, suspensions, takedowns, shadowbans, account restrictions, or content removals; and
you remain solely responsible for reviewing and approving content before publication.

You acknowledge that:

analytics may be delayed, incomplete, estimated, sampled, unavailable, or revised by the relevant platform;
metrics may differ from what you see inside the Third-Party Platform; and
Atlas Engine does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or availability of any analytics provided by Third-Party Platforms.
