Terms of Service

• Service / Atlas — the Atlas web application and APIs at projectatlas.fr / projectatlas.com, including knowledge-map editor, question banks, AI grading, accreditation tools, and related software.
• Self-Serve User — an individual who creates an Atlas account directly (typically a teacher or learner).
• Institutional User — an individual whose Atlas access is provided by their university via LTI launch, Azure AD SSO, or institutional licence.
• Institutional Customer — the university or institution that has signed an Institutional Contract with Wynex Labs.
• Customer Content — the inputs you provide: knowledge maps, questions, rubrics, syllabi, student submissions, essays, scores.
• Outputs — analytical results the Service returns: AI-generated questions, AI-suggested grades, citation extractions, attainment reports.
• Subscription — a paid plan via Stripe (Self-Serve) or an Institutional Contract (Institutional).

Atlas is intended for users aged 15 years or older. By creating a Self-Serve account, you affirm you are at least 15. Atlas enforces server-side age affirmation before account creation completes.

If you are aged 15 to 17, you confirm your parent or legal guardian is aware of your use of Atlas. Where applicable French law (Loi Informatique et Libertés, Art. 7-1) requires parental consent for users under 15 to access information-society services, Atlas does not knowingly accept Self-Serve accounts from users under 15; under-15 access is available only via an LTI launch under an Institutional Contract that confers parental-consent responsibility on the Institutional Customer.

If we discover that an account belongs to a user younger than affirmed, we suspend it and delete the associated data per the Privacy Policy retention schedule. Parents/guardians may contact privacy@wynexlabs.studio for action within one calendar month.

You agree to provide accurate information, keep your credentials confidential, and notify us promptly at security@wynexlabs.studio if you suspect unauthorised access. You are responsible for all activity under your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms (§17).

Atlas is an educational technology tool. It helps you build interactive knowledge maps, generate and grade practice questions and essays with AI assistance, and analyse learning outcomes against accreditation standards (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA).

Atlas does not replace a qualified educator's professional judgement. AI-generated questions, AI-suggested grades, knowledge-map structure suggestions, and accreditation-attainment scores are computational aids. They are not authoritative academic decisions. A human educator must review and validate every grade or summative evaluation before it is communicated to a learner or used in an official academic record.

Because every grade passes through human review before passback, no decision producing legal or similarly significant effects within the meaning of GDPR Art. 22(1) is made solely by automated means in Atlas. We rely on this HITL design as the Art. 22(2)(a) and (c) safeguards.

Self-Serve Users are individual account holders. They are responsible for their own Customer Content, the use they make of Atlas with their students, and compliance with the rules of their own institution. Wynex Labs is the data controller for Self-Serve account processing.

Institutional Users access Atlas via LTI 1.3, Azure AD SSO, or other institutional authentication. They are bound by these Terms and by the Institutional Contract (which prevails in case of conflict). For Institutional User data and Customer Content, the Institutional Customer is the data controller, and Wynex Labs acts as data processor under Art. 28 GDPR. Institutional Users seeking to exercise data-subject rights should contact their institution first.

Learners uploading or submitting work are responsible for its originality and for not violating third-party rights or committing academic fraud (§9).

• Plans + price — Self-Serve plans and prices are published at projectatlas.fr/pricing. Institutional pricing is governed by the Institutional Contract.
• Billing — Self-Serve payments are processed by Stripe Inc. and Stripe Payments Europe Ltd under their own terms.
• VAT — Wynex Labs operates under the French Franchise en base de TVA regime. Invoices carry the mention “TVA non applicable, article 293 B du CGI” and do not include French VAT.
• Renewal — Subscriptions renew automatically; cancel at least one full day before the renewal date.
• Refunds — Non-refundable except where required by mandatory consumer-protection law. The French Code de la consommation Art. L221-18 withdrawal right is generally not available for digital services started with your express prior waiver.

We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence during your subscription (or free-plan account) to access and use the Service for educational or learning purposes.

You retain ownership of all Customer Content. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to host, store, process, and create analytical Outputs from Customer Content solely for the purpose of operating the Service for you (or for the Institutional Customer that controls your data).

We do not use Customer Content — including student essays, practice answers, knowledge maps, or any learner work — to train AI models. All AI providers are listed in the Subprocessor Register and are bound by data-processing agreements prohibiting training on inputs; all are configured for zero-retention where available.

When Atlas grades or evaluates learner work using AI, the system produces a suggested grade. The grade is not final or returned to the learner or transmitted to the institution's gradebook until a human educator has reviewed and confirmed (or modified) the suggestion. The grading state machine enforces this. AI-suggested grades that remain in DRAFT/PROFESSOR_REVIEW state for more than the period defined in the Institutional Contract (default 30 days) are auto-expired.

• No reverse-engineering, scraping, redistribution, white-labelling, or competing-product benchmarking.
• No malicious code, no vulnerability probing (except via responsible disclosure to security@wynexlabs.studio).
• No academic fraud. Submitting AI-generated work as your own original work where your institution prohibits it is a breach of these Terms. At an Institutional Customer's request we may disclose feature-use logs to the institution for the purpose of investigating academic-misconduct allegations.
• No identification of individuals from anonymised or aggregated data (cohort statistics, attainment heatmaps, accreditation rollups).
• No uploading of content infringing third-party IP, illegal content, harassing/targeting content, or content you do not have the right to share.

• Our IP — Wynex Labs retains all right, title, and interest in the Service, the underlying software, the methodology documentation, the brand, and AI rubrics/prompts.
• Your IP / Your Institution's IP — You (or your Institutional Customer) retain all rights in Customer Content, configurations, knowledge maps, and analyses you create.
• AI outputs — AI Outputs generated for you in response to your inputs are yours to use within the educational context of your account. We make no representation that AI Outputs are factually accurate, original, or non-infringing; you remain responsible for reviewing them before relying on them.
• Feedback — Feedback you send grants us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use it to improve the Service.

Our processing of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy. For Self-Serve Users, Wynex Labs is the data controller. For Institutional Users, the Institutional Customer is the controller and Wynex Labs is the processor (Institutional Contract and DPA prevail). For data-subject requests, contact your institution first if you are an Institutional User; privacy@wynexlabs.studio otherwise.

Each party will protect the other's non-public information with at least reasonable care, will use it only for purposes of the Service, and will not disclose it to third parties except to advisors bound by equivalent confidentiality. Information that is publicly known, was rightfully known before disclosure, is independently developed, or is rightfully received from a third party without confidentiality obligation is excluded. Where an Institutional Contract is in place, that contract's confidentiality provisions prevail.

We aim for continuous availability but do not warrant uninterrupted access. Where a change materially reduces functionality of a paid feature you currently use, we give reasonable advance notice and offer prorated refunds for materially-adverse changes. No contractual uptime SLA on the Self-Serve plan; Institutional Customers may negotiate an SLA in the Institutional Contract. Material changes to these Terms are notified by email and in-product banner at least 30 days before they take effect.

If your institution has integrated Atlas via LTI 1.3, Azure AD SSO, or equivalent, your use is governed by both these Terms and the Institutional Contract, which prevails in case of conflict.

• By you — close your account anytime from settings. Paid term continues until end of current period; no refund except as mandatory law requires.
• By us — for cause — immediate suspension/termination without refund for material breach, repeated payment failure, legal risk, or competent-authority order. Institutional Customers may also trigger suspension.
• By us — for convenience — 30 days' notice with prorated refund.
• Post-termination — 30 days to export Customer Content; then deleted per the Privacy Policy retention schedule, except as required by law (French commercial-law obligations to retain invoicing records for 10 years).

Beta/preview features are as-is, may be discontinued without notice, and are excluded from any warranty. Open-source components are governed by their own licences, which prevail over these Terms for those components only.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranty of any kind, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, or uninterrupted/error-free operation. We do not warrant that AI Outputs are correct, that AI-generated questions are pedagogically sound for your course, or that AI-suggested grades reflect any particular standard. The Service is a tool to assist educators and learners; it does not replace professional educational judgement. Nothing in this Section limits any non-excludable consumer warranty under French law.

• Indirect damages excluded — no liability for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including lost grades, lost academic credit, lost goodwill.
• Aggregate cap — total liability capped at the greater of (i) fees you paid in the trailing 12 months, or (ii) €100. Institutional Customers' caps are set in the Institutional Contract and supersede this clause.
• Carve-outs — the cap does not apply to non-excludable liability under mandatory law (in France: gross negligence — faute lourde — wilful misconduct — faute dolosive — personal injury), breach of confidentiality (§12), IP infringement, or indemnification (§19).

You will defend and indemnify Wynex Labs against any third-party claim arising from your unlawful use of the Service, breach of §9, IP infringement through your Customer Content, submission of work as original where it is not (§9), or violation of applicable law. We will defend you against any third-party claim that your authorised use of the Service infringes that party's IP in the European Union, provided you notify us promptly and let us control the defence. Maximum indemnification liability is subject to the §18 cap.

Neither party is liable for failure or delay caused by events beyond reasonable control, including natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labour disputes, internet/telecom outages, pandemics, denial-of-service attacks, or upstream AI-provider outages. The affected party will use reasonable efforts to resume performance.

These Terms are governed by French law, excluding its conflict-of-laws principles and excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Disputes are submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Paris, France, subject to non-waivable consumer-protection rules that grant a consumer (acting outside their trade or profession) the right to bring proceedings before the courts of their habitual residence.

For French consumers, the mediation provisions of Art. L612-1 et seq. of the Code de la consommation apply. The consumer mediator competent for Wynex Labs is to be designated upon first request to legal@wynexlabs.studio. For Institutional Customers and B2B users, Paris courts apply without exception, subject to any forum-selection clause in an Institutional Contract.

• Severability — invalid provisions are replaced by enforceable ones reflecting original intent.
• No waiver — failure to enforce is not waiver.
• Assignment — you may not assign without our consent. We may assign in connection with merger/acquisition/restructuring, including any future transfer of the Atlas business from Wynex Labs (EI) to a French SAS; 30 days' notice. Institutional Customers may terminate for convenience on 30 days' notice if the assignee is not reasonably acceptable.
• Entire agreement — these Terms + Privacy Policy + Institutional Contract (where applicable) constitute the entire agreement.
• Notices — to you by email or in-product; to us at legal@wynexlabs.studio and 59 Rue Georges Lardennois, 75019 Paris, France.
• Language — published in English (/en/terms) and French (/fr/terms). For B2B + Institutional users, the English version prevails in case of inconsistency. For French consumers, the French version prevails where mandatory consumer-protection law so requires.

• General / legal — legal@wynexlabs.studio
• Security disclosures — security@wynexlabs.studio
• Privacy / data-subject requests — privacy@wynexlabs.studio (Self-Serve); contact your institution first if Institutional.
