When humans die, if a soul reaper gets to them in time they use the hilt of their Zanpaktou to perform Soul Burial to send the soul to Soul Society. If they are left in the human world too long they become Hollows. If a hollow is killed by a Zanpaktou it works the same as if they received a Soul Burial and they go to Soul Society. If a hollow devours a human soul that soul becomes a part of it. If a human was particularly evil and they are Soul Buried or killed by a Zanpaktou as a hollow then they are sent to Hell, but that is about all that we know about Hell at this point in the story. It isn't entirely clear how it works when Vasto Lorde hollows made of up hundreds of individual human souls are killed, whether all of those separate souls go to Soul Society at once or you just end up one extremely powerful soul like Ulquiorra walking around Rukongai. People in Soul Society are either dead people from the human world, or, usually the nobles, were born in Soul Society to two Shinigami parents. The way aging works is a little ambiguous but Shinigami born in Soul Society function just like people in the living world, just with much longer life spans. When someone who is already a Soul dies they re-enter the cycle of life and death and are reincarnated as a human born to living parents in the human world. It's ambiguous how exactly it works in more niche circumstances like the Fullbringers, although it looks like they follow Hollow rules since they ended up in Soul Society after being killed by a Zanpaktou. This is the fundamental conflict with the Quincies. Hollows are erased completely by Quincies instead of receiving Soul Burial. Hollows being erased on a large enough scale disrupts the balance of Souls between Soul Society and the human world and if left unchecked would destroy everything. I hope this was not mansplainy I just get excited to talk about the way this world works because I think it's pretty interesting.
