Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 9, 2025

Our Commitment to Your Privacy: At Dream Atlas, we take your privacy seriously. We do NOT sell or market your personal information to third parties. We do NOT store your passwords in plain text. All payment processing is handled through trusted third-party payment processors, so we do NOT have access to your payment card information.

5. Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement industry-standard security measures to protect it:
