Why do some sites reject HEIC uploads

Many sites and apps still only accept JPG or PNG. HEIC is common on iPhone, but it is not supported everywhere, so converting to JPG solves most upload problems.

Will converting HEIC to JPG reduce quality

JPG uses compression, but for everyday photos GhostConvert uses sensible settings so your image stays sharp for normal viewing, sharing, and printing.

Will the photo orientation stay correct

Yes. The conversion keeps the intended orientation so your JPG should open the same way your photo looked on your phone.
