Terms of Use
The Atlas is an educational and discovery resource for Texas wine, geography, people, vineyards, wineries, and related provenance.
Informational use
Atlas content is provided for informational and educational purposes. We work to distinguish documented facts, sourced claims, observed information, informed interpretation, and provisional material, but records may be incomplete, disputed, or change over time.
Geographic authority
AVA maps and geographic displays are interpretive reference tools. Official American Viticultural Area definitions are governed by applicable federal law and official Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau materials. If an Atlas visualization conflicts with an official legal description, the official legal description controls.
Third-party businesses and links
References to wineries, vineyards, products, people, events, booking services, shops, or other third parties do not by themselves constitute endorsement, certification, sponsorship, or a guarantee of availability, quality, pricing, or accuracy. External sites operate under their own terms.
Contributions
When contribution features are enabled, submitted information may be reviewed, rejected, corrected, attributed, or held for verification. Submission does not guarantee publication, and public-facing canonical records are not automatically replaced by contributor input.
Rights
Original Atlas software, interface design, writing, artwork, and editorial compilations are protected by applicable rights. Third-party names, trademarks, photographs, data, maps, and source material remain subject to their respective owners’ or licensors’ rights. No rights are transferred merely because material is referenced or displayed in the Atlas.
Use of the Atlas is subject to these terms as they may be updated with the service. Continued use after an update means the current terms apply to that use.
