Fine print
This is an in-person event hosted at the company’s offices, as shown in the map section above. Please review and note the office location before applying to ensure you can travel safely to the site.
Personal information
When you apply for this event, we use the information you give us to check if you meet the requirements set by the employer. If your application is successful, we will share your first name, last name, and your parent or guardian’s mobile number with the employer. We may also include any dietary or medical information you choose to share during your application to help keep you safe.
We use this information to make sure the event is safe and runs smoothly. All the information we share with the employer is sent securely in protected files and deleted after the event is over.
If the employer needs any extra information about you, we will always ask for your clear permission first. This means you must say ‘yes’ before we share anything.
Photography and videography consent
At any Uptree event, including online ones using video conferencing, we and the employer hosting the event might take photos or videos to share in marketing materials. This means the pictures or videos could appear on our website, social media, in press releases, or other places to help more people learn about Uptree. We might also share these photos with the employer hosting the event, so they can use them too.
By signing up for an event with Uptree, you are giving us and the employer permission to take and use photos of you. If you don’t want us to take photos of you, please email us with your name and the event name at educationteam@uptree.co.
If you’d like to share your experience on LinkedIn or other social media, you’re welcome to take photos at the in-person events! Just make sure to be professional, ask permission before taking pictures of other people or employer volunteers, and only take photos at appropriate times so you don’t interrupt the event.
For online events, screenshots aren’t ever allowed. This helps keep everyone’s privacy safe, which is really important. Don’t worry—after the event, we’ll send out some great photos that you can share on social media. We’ll make sure everyone in the pictures is happy to be included!
Marketing and feedback consent
After every Uptree event, we ask for feedback through a short, anonymous survey. This helps us improve our events and services. Sometimes, we also use the feedback in our marketing, which means your comments might appear on our website, social media, or in press releases to help people learn about Uptree.
Your feedback will always stay anonymous—this means no one will know it was you who gave the feedback. We might also share the feedback with the employer who hosted the event so they can make their events better and use it in their own marketing.
By filling out the feedback form, you’re giving Uptree permission to use your comments and share them with employers, but your name will never be included unless we obtain your permission in writing. If you would prefer not to share your feedback, then that is absolutely fine and will not affect your ability to participate in Uptree events, just let your Event Host know on the day.
