Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

UpLife Inc. ("UpLife," "we," "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect across our website and Member Portal, why we collect it, and how it's handled.

Information we collect

Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:

• Public visitors: no personal information is required to browse the site or view our mission and impact.
• Applicants: name, email, phone, school/grade, and your answers on the volunteer application form.
• Members and admins: name, username, email, phone, department, and volunteer hours you submit.
• Donors: we do not process payment information directly on this site — donations are handled by our third-party payment/fundraising platforms, which have their own privacy policies.
• UpLife for Nonprofits: partner organizations provide an organization name, contact details, and a delivery address; members of the public who claim a wishlist item provide their name and email to the claiming organization.

How we use this information

• To review volunteer applications and manage member/admin accounts
• To track and verify volunteer hours
• To connect donors with nonprofit partners' wishlist items
• To communicate with you about your application, account, or a claimed item

Where your data is stored

Account and application data is stored using Google Firebase (Firebase Authentication and Firestore), a third-party cloud service. We do not sell your personal information to anyone.

Information about minors

UpLife is a student-run, student-powered organization, and many of our members and applicants are minors. We collect only what's needed to manage membership and volunteer hours (e.g., name, contact information, school/grade), and we do not knowingly collect more than necessary from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who has questions about a minor's information, or who would like it removed, can contact us using the information below.

Your choices

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time by emailing us. We will respond and act on reasonable requests promptly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
