Who runs this

Oliver's mTOR Atlas is an independent, non-commercial project curated by Oliver Barton, Prague. Contact: oliver.barton1113(at)gmail.com.

The website

• Hosting. The site is static and hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub receives the usual request data (such as IP address and browser) to deliver pages and keep the service secure, under the GitHub Privacy Statement. The Atlas has no access to these logs.
• Usage statistics. Pages load Google Analytics 4 (property G-420TPC8J46) to count visits, pages viewed and where visitors come from. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies and does not log or store IP addresses. Event data is kept for 2 months. The Atlas uses the reports only to see which pages are read; it does not use advertising features or combine the data with anything else. See Google's Privacy Policy; you can block it with any content blocker or the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
• Practice and progress in the Academy are stored only in your own browser (local storage). They are never sent anywhere.

The JSON API

The API is a set of static files on the same GitHub Pages hosting. It needs no key and sets no cookies. Requests are seen only by GitHub, as above.

The MCP server

• Local version (npm package mtor-atlas-mcp). It runs on your own computer and sends nothing to the Atlas. It downloads the public API files from mtor-atlas.org, which GitHub sees as ordinary web requests.
• Remote version (https://mtor-atlas-mcp.mtor-atlas.workers.dev/mcp). It runs on Cloudflare Workers. When an AI assistant uses it, the server receives only the tool call: the tool name and its arguments, such as a search term or a study ID. It does not receive your conversation, your name or your account. It needs no sign-in and sets no cookies.
• No logs, no storage. The server's code does not record requests or tool arguments and stores nothing between requests other than a temporary in-memory copy of the public Atlas data. Request logging in Cloudflare is switched off. Cloudflare itself processes network traffic (including IP addresses) to deliver and protect the service, under the Cloudflare Privacy Policy; the Atlas sees only aggregate counts (number of requests and errors).
• What it returns is public metadata about published research (titles, authors, DOIs, curated findings), the same as on the website. It contains no personal or health data about users.

Sharing and selling

Nothing is sold, shared with advertisers or used to profile anyone. The only third parties involved are the service providers named above (GitHub, Google Analytics, Cloudflare, and npm for the package download).

Retention

The Atlas keeps no personal data of its own. Google Analytics event data is deleted after 2 months. Retention of operational logs at GitHub and Cloudflare is governed by their policies linked above.
