The National Archives says this about the Atlantic Charter:
Atlantic Charter
Joint declaration made by Roosevelt and Churchill in August 1941, setting out broad principles for the conduct of international relations in the postwar world. Drawn up at sea, off the coast of Newfoundland, it provided a foundation for the United Nations Charter. Its eight principles included non-aggression, self-determination, free trade, freedom of the seas, and renunciation of territorial expansion.
As you can see this charter gave the nations who used the Atlantic Ocean freedom of the ocean and safety from aggressors. It was also a foundation for the United Nations.
The Atlantic Charter was a policy that declared the Allies goals for the world once World War II was over. It was World War II itself that caused the creation of this statement.

The so-called "Atlantic Charter" was never an official, signed document. Neither Franklin D. Roosevelt nor Winston Churchill ever signed it. No signed copy has ever existed. At a December 19, 1944 press conference, in response to the direct question, "Did Churchill sign the Atlantic Charter?", FDR replied, "No one ever signed the Atlantic Charter." Supposedly signed on August 14th, 1941, it wasn't even called the "Atlantic Charter" until about a week after the text of the statement was released.
No. The Atlantic Charter rejected imperialism.

The Atlantic Charter outlined the specific goals of WW2 and what would be done in event of victory for the Allies. Things like not stealing territory and giving freedom back to the countries that the Nazis had occupied.
