Evidence Preservation

Protect safeguarding evidence from upload through review, retention, and recovery.

Sensitive evidence should not live in scattered email threads, shared folders, or informal downloads. Child Protect keeps evidence connected to the right report, school, tenant, user context, and audit history.

Evidence preservation answer

Common questions

What kinds of evidence can be relevant?

Screenshots, documents, notes, forms, messages, timestamps, photos, and follow-up records may be relevant depending on the concern.

Why not keep evidence in email?

Email can be forwarded, copied, lost in threads, or separated from the complete case history.

Does evidence preservation mean public sharing?

No. Evidence should be restricted to authorized users and handled according to safeguarding policies.

Why is context important?

A file without the related case notes, decisions, dates, and actions can be harder to understand later.
