UpstanderStories.org (the "Site") is operated by [Your Legal Business Name] ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information when you visit our Site or interact with us.

If you have any questions, you can contact us at: info@UpstanderStories.org.​

We collect information in two main ways:

• Information you choose to provide
  
  • If you email us at info@UpstanderStories.org, we will receive your email address and any information you include in your message.
• Information collected automatically (basic usage data)
  
  • Like many websites, we may collect basic technical information when you visit the Site, such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the time and date of your visit, often through cookies or similar technologies.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

We use the information we collect for purposes such as:

• Operating, maintaining, and improving the Site.
• Responding to your emails and questions.
• Understanding how visitors use the Site so we can improve our content.
• Meeting our legal, regulatory, and compliance obligations.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

We may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Help the Site function properly.
• Understand how the Site is used (for example, which pages are popular).
• Support our participation in the Amazon Associates program (see below).

You can usually choose to set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable cookies, some parts of the Site may not function properly.

UpstanderStories.org participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to allow websites to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

When you click an Amazon link on our Site, Amazon (and any other third-party providers we use) may place cookies or use other tracking technologies to understand that you came from our Site and to process your purchase. These third parties may collect information about your browser or device over time and across different websites.

Your use of Amazon and other third-party sites is governed by their own privacy policies and terms, not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

We may share information in the following situations:

• With service providers who help us operate the Site (for example, website hosting or analytics providers), who are required to handle information in compliance with applicable law.
• If required by law, legal process, or government request.
• In connection with a potential or actual merger, sale, or other business transfer involving our organization.

We do not sell visitors’ personal information to third parties.

You have some choices about how we use your information:

• You can choose not to email us, or limit the personal information you include in your messages.
• You can adjust your browser settings to refuse or limit cookies.
• If you receive communications from us in the future (for example, a newsletter), you will be able to opt out by following the instructions in those communications.

If you would like to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you (where applicable law provides these rights), you can contact us at info@UpstanderStories.org.

If you access the Site from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may be different from those in your country.

The Site is not directed to children under 12, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it as soon as possible.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice where appropriate. Your continued use of the Site after any changes means you accept the updated policy.
