Privacy Policy

These materials reflect current public-facing guidance and should be reviewed as organizational policies and operational details continue to develop.

This page should be reviewed by Rising Up Now leadership and, where appropriate, legal or policy advisors before final approval.

What information is collected

Rising Up Now collects only the information needed to respond to inquiries, volunteer interest, partnership outreach, newsletter requests, program questions, and support conversations.

Public forms are not designed to collect Social Security numbers, private youth addresses, foster-care case details, court information, medical information, banking details, or other highly sensitive records.

How information is used

Information is used to respond to the request, communicate about the relevant program or opportunity, and maintain limited internal records for follow-up.

Form contents should not be placed into analytics systems, query strings, or public-facing logs. Internal access should be limited to those who need the information to respond.

Retention and deletion

Rising Up Now should keep inquiry records only as long as necessary for response, follow-up, reasonable administrative needs, or legal compliance.

Submissions that are no longer needed should be deleted securely. This policy should be reviewed and updated as operational practices are finalized.
