I am just checking because I cannot find that information on your site, and the information on the BCH hard fork says "you may or may not have to upgrade your wallet" Thanks.

You do not have to run any updates, as long as you have your 12 word backup seed you will always be able to import the addresses into a wallet that supports a future network fork we don't support.

At present, there is very little information available about the technical know-how of this fork because their website is in development mode.
Bitcoin Gold is a new, would be cryptocurrency denoted, as of now, as BTG. It will be a fork of the original Bitcoin that Satoshi Nakamoto invented in 2008.
