Privacy

Private by default.

The Beacon exists to make sponsorship matching safer and easier. We keep the data model narrow and the sharing surface intentional.

What we collect

Name, email, role, matching preferences, life-experience tags, sponsor capacity, and short profile notes you submit through the intake flow.

How we use it

We use this information to calculate match recommendations, create connection requests, and let leaders review sponsor capacity and request status.

What we avoid

The app is not designed to store detailed testimony, medical records, therapy notes, or unnecessary recovery history. Keep free-text responses practical and minimal.

Who can see it

Leaders operating the tool can view submitted profiles and requests within their organization. Contact details should only be shared in the context of a real sponsor introduction.

Retention

Data remains in the system until an admin clears it or the ministry decides on a longer-term retention policy. This is an early version of the system, so retention practices may be refined over time.
