# Secure & Anonymous Reporting

> Confidential by design. Reporters stay anonymous; administrators get a secure,
> auditable workflow.

Trust is the foundation of any reporting program. Votie / SignalitUP is built so
people can come forward without fear, and so organizations can act on what they
learn with confidence.

## Anonymity

- **No reporter account or login** — Anyone can submit from any device.
- **Identity is never required** — Reports are anonymous unless a reporter chooses to share contact details.
- **Anonymous two-way follow-up** — Investigators and reporters exchange messages without revealing who the reporter is.

## Security

- **Confidential handling** — Report contents are restricted to authorized administrators.
- **Authenticated workspace** — Administrative areas (dashboard, cases, account, admin) require sign-in.
- **Auditability** — Case statuses, follow-ups, and actions are tracked.
- **Privacy-by-design** — Minimal personal data collection; see `/privacy-policy`.

## Availability

- **24/7 intake** — Reports can be submitted any time.
- **Alerts & notifications** — Administrators are notified of new activity.
- **No app required** — Browser-based access via link or QR code.

## Designed for sensitive environments

The platform is used in healthcare, education, government, financial services,
non-profits, retail, and businesses of every size — anywhere confidentiality and
trust are essential.
