There have been threads here that have said that the ECU keeps it memory with the battery disconnected. Your tune should be safe. Just to be sure, check a few threads on here about it.

As far as maintaining my battery, I bought this when it was on sale for 40% off.Motomaster Eliminator Intelligent Battery Charger 6A/4A/2A | Canadian Tire

You will not lose your Uprev tune if you disconnect your battery. The stock ECU file/tune is replaced when you get an Uprev with a new tuned "ROM" file.

To recap, the ECU doesn't store the Uprev tune and the stock tune, it's one or the other. Replacing/disconnecting the battery will not revert the ECU back to stock.
