Your data stays in your browser
Everything you enter into Atlas (budgets, child support figures, your week, records, goals, notes) is stored locally in your browser only. It never leaves your device. There is no server receiving your entries, no database holding your numbers, and no third party with access to anything you enter. Buying Atlas does leave a record, covered in Paying for Atlas.
This is intentional. Separation involves some of the most sensitive financial and personal information a person handles. Atlas is built so no one else can get to it, including us.
Because your data is stored locally, clearing your browser data, switching devices or using a private window will remove it. Atlas doesn't sync. Use Back up / import data in Atlas to save one file to your device, and import it again later.
Paying for Atlas
Atlas costs $79 AUD, paid once. There is no subscription and nothing renews.
Payments are processed by Stripe. Atlas never sees or stores your card details. Stripe receives what it needs to take the payment, such as your email address and card details, under its own privacy policy. None of the information you enter inside Atlas is sent to Stripe or anyone else.
After you pay, the app sets one cookie on app.get-atlas.com.au to remember that you've bought Atlas, and gives you an Atlas key to unlock it on another browser. Your key is emailed to you through Resend, an email delivery service.
Atlas keeps a list of issued keys so it can check yours when you unlock the app. For each key it holds the key itself, the Stripe payment reference and identifiers for the devices it has been used on. None of this, and nothing Stripe or Resend holds, contains anything you've entered.
If Atlas isn't right for you, email us within 30 days of buying for a full refund. No questions asked. This is on top of your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
Not legal advice
Nothing on this website or in the Atlas tool is legal advice. Atlas is an organisational tool, not a legal service. Don't rely on anything here instead of advice from a qualified family lawyer.
Family law is complex and depends heavily on individual circumstances. Parenting arrangements, property settlement, consent orders, binding financial agreements and divorce need advice from a practising Australian lawyer.
Atlas helps you understand your situation and organise your thinking. It doesn't draft legal documents, assess your legal rights or predict what a court would decide.
Not financial advice
Nothing on this website or in the Atlas tool is financial advice. Atlas is a planning tool, not a financial service. Don't make significant financial decisions based only on figures generated here.
Separation brings real financial complexity: super splitting, property valuations, capital gains, Centrelink entitlements and running two households. Atlas gives you a clearer picture of your numbers. It doesn't replace a financial adviser, accountant or mortgage broker.
The child support calculations in Atlas use formulas published by Services Australia and are estimates only. The official assessment from Services Australia is the only figure that legally applies to you.
What Atlas is not
- Not a co-parenting app. Your ex doesn't need an account and nothing is shared. It's for private, individual use.
- Not a document store. Don't use it as the main home for court orders, legal documents or financial records.
- Not a legal portal. It has no connection to the Federal Circuit and Family Court, Services Australia, the ATO or any government body.
- Not therapy or counselling. If you're struggling, talk to your GP, or call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636, any time.
This website
get-atlas.com.au runs on Ghost, which may set functional cookies the platform needs to work.
Email. The free email series and the Sunday email are sent with MailerLite. When you sign up, we store your email address and the stage you chose. MailerLite records whether an email is opened and which links are clicked, so we can tell which emails are useful. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe. To have your details deleted completely, email privacy@get-atlas.com.au.
The signup form loads a MailerLite script on the email signup page only. Nothing from MailerLite runs inside the Atlas app, and nothing you enter in Atlas is ever sent to it.
This site doesn't use invasive tracking, retargeting pixels or behavioural advertising, and it doesn't load Google Fonts.
