Privacy is part of the product, not an afterthought.
This page explains the current Foundup pilot in plain language. It is not a substitute for a jurisdiction-specific privacy policy before a wider public launch.
What you choose to share
Your public profile may include an alias, industry avatar, headline, niche, broad area, interests, availability, and what you can help with. A real name and custom photo are optional.
Location
Foundup is designed to show approximate neighbourhood information publicly, not an exact home, office, or live location. Avoid putting exact addresses in profile text.
Private activity
Connection requests, private messages, network membership, reports, blocks, and meetup details are intended only for the relevant signed-in people and authorised safety administration.
Service providers
Foundup currently uses Supabase for authentication and data storage and Vercel for hosting. Those providers process technical information needed to operate the service under their own terms.
Usage analytics
We record action names such as opening Pulse, saving a post, sending a message, or joining a community to understand which features help people. Signed-in events are associated with your account; visitor events use a session identifier in your browser tab. Admin reports show aggregate counts, not individual browsing histories. Analytics do not copy messages, posts, search terms, precise locations, or private profile content.
Your choices
You can hide or edit your profile and choose what to reveal after connecting. Account export and deletion workflows should be completed before the pilot expands publicly.
