The ATGC platform provides online access to phylogenetic analysis tools, bioinformatics workflows, and related research services.

The catalog, user interface, and available services may evolve at any time in order to improve reliability, security, or scientific relevance.

The platform processes the information needed to operate submitted jobs, return results, send status notifications, and protect the service against abuse.

Depending on the workflow, this may include submitted files, job metadata, notification email addresses, connection metadata, and operational logs.

Email addresses are kept only for as long as needed to process jobs and notifications. After processing, the platform may keep only a non-reversible email hash for recognition and abuse prevention.

Verification and notification traces may be retained for up to 365 days where needed for accountless access control, support, or security investigations.

Data subjects may request access to their personal data, correction of inaccurate data, portability, deletion, deletion of an accountless access record where applicable, restriction of processing, objection on legitimate grounds, or withdrawal of consent where processing relies on consent.

These requests can be sent to the LIRMM personal data protection contacts at cor-spd@lirmm.fr. Platform-specific support requests can also be sent to atgc-contact@lirmm.fr.

The CNRS Data Protection Officer can be contacted at dpd.demandes@cnrs.fr or by post at DPD - 2 rue Jean Zay, 54519 Vandœuvre lès Nancy Cedex, France. They may also lodge a complaint with the CNIL if they believe their rights are not being respected.

Unless stated otherwise, the interface design, documentation, and original ATGC materials published on this platform remain protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

Integrated third-party tools, datasets, and logos remain the property of their respective authors, institutions, or licensors and continue to be governed by their own licenses or reuse terms.

Photo credits for LIRMM materials are attributed to LIRMM unless another credit is stated.

The ATGC platform does not use advertising, audience-measurement, or third-party tracking cookies.

The service may set technical cookies required for security and authentication, including CSRF protection cookies and Django session cookies used when a user signs in to protected areas such as the dashboard or administration interface.

These cookies are used only to provide and secure the service and are not used to track users across third-party websites.

The service is provided on a best-effort basis. While the ATGC team aims to maintain accurate information and reliable operation, no uninterrupted availability or error-free execution is guaranteed.

Users remain responsible for validating scientific outputs, safeguarding their own source data, and ensuring that the platform is appropriate for their use case.

LIRMM is not responsible for the content of external pages or third-party pages linked from this service.

This service and its public pages are intended to be governed by French law unless mandatory rules require otherwise.

In the absence of an amicable resolution, disputes should be brought before the courts having jurisdiction over the operator.
