A topology is a set of subsets satisfying certain axioms, including closure under arbitrary unions and finite intersections. Is there a term for the weakened structure given by changing closure under arbitrary unions to finite unions?

The structure is just a lattice of sets, albeit with the restriction that it must contain the empty set. A lattice of sets is simply a lattice whose join and meet are union and intersection, respectively.
