Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 7, 2026

This document has been drafted for upfield with the operator's real details, but it has not yet been reviewed by a legal professional. Please have it reviewed before relying on it.

This policy explains what personal information upfield collects, why, how it’s shared, and the choices you have. Because recovery notes and photos can reveal health-related information, we keep your recovery private by default and only share it when you choose to.

1. Who is responsible

Georges Anthony Boum is responsible for the personal information described here. Under Québec’s Law 25, the person in charge of protecting personal information is Georges Anthony Boum, reachable at georges.boum18@gmail.com.

2. What we collect

Account information: your email, chosen username, and a securely hashed password (handled by our authentication provider).

Recovery information you enter: injury, sport, recovery stage, milestones, journal notes, and any photos you attach.

Circle activity: which recovery you choose to share, and the cheers and milestone reactions you send or receive.

Technical information: limited, privacy-light usage analytics; and email-delivery information when we send you account emails.

3. Sensitive (health-related) information

Recovery notes and photos may reveal information about your health. You control what you write and whether you share it. Recoveries are private to you unless you explicitly share one to a circle, and you can turn sharing off at any time.

4. Why we use your information

To provide the Service: run your account, save your recovery, match you to a circle at your stage, and show your shared updates to that circle.

To communicate with you: transactional emails such as confirming your address or resetting your password.

We rely on your consent to create your account and, separately, to share a recovery to a circle. We do not use your recovery content for advertising, and we do not sell your personal information.

5. How it’s shared

With other members of a circle: only a recovery you have chosen to share, and only with members of that circle.

With service providers who process data on our behalf: Supabase (database, authentication, and file storage), Vercel (hosting and privacy-light analytics), and Resend (transactional email). These providers process and store data in the United States.

We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of members.

6. Storage and security

Your data is protected by database row-level security so you can only access your own data and recoveries shared to your circle. Photos live in a private storage bucket and are served through short-lived signed links. Data is encrypted in transit. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information.

7. How long we keep it

We keep your information while your account is active. When you delete your account (Settings → Account), your profile, recoveries, milestones, journal entries, circle presence, and uploaded photos are permanently deleted from our live database. upfield currently runs on our hosting provider’s free tier, which does not include long-term backups, so residual operational copies are cleared shortly afterward.

8. Your rights and choices

You can access and correct your information in the app, stop sharing a recovery at any time, and permanently delete your account and its data from Settings → Account.

Depending on where you live (including under Québec’s Law 25 and Canada’s PIPEDA), you may also have the right to obtain a copy of your information (portability) and to withdraw consent. To make a request, email georges.boum18@gmail.com and we’ll provide a copy of your data within 30 days. You may also complain to your privacy regulator (in Québec, the Commission d’accès à l’information).

9. Children

upfield is not intended for anyone under 16. If you are under the age of majority where you live, use upfield only with a parent’s or guardian’s consent.

10. Data outside your country

Your information is processed and stored in the United States by the providers listed above. We rely on their contractual and security commitments to protect it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. We’ll change the date above and, for material changes, notify you where appropriate.
