What happens next?
You've saved your report — that took courage. Here you'll find out how the matching system works and what happens if someone else has reported the same person as you.
The matching system
How it works
Report saved
Your encrypted report is stored securely. Nobody — not even us — can read it without your personal vault token. You can add to your report at any time.
Anonymous matching
If another person reports the same accused individual, the system detects a match — without revealing names, contact details or identities. A single matching identifier is enough.
Advocate steps in
When there is a match, a confidential advocate is notified. They reach out separately to everyone affected — you decide whether and how you want to proceed.
For matching
One identifier is enough
You don't need to be able to fully identify the accused person. Just one of the following identifiers is enough for the system to detect a match:
- Name or nickname of the accused person
- Social media profile (JoyClub, FetLife, Instagram, Facebook)
- Phone number
- Email address
After a match
You choose your next step
A match doesn't obligate you to anything. You decide at any time whether and how you want to proceed. An advocate will support you — without pressure, without judgement.
Documentation
Your report stays stored encrypted — as a personal record in case you need it later.
Counselling
An advocate will support you confidentially, explain your options and help you without pressure.
Acting together
If several affected people wish to, the advocate can coordinate — for example for a joint report.
Official report
If you want, the advocate can support you in reporting to the police or a school. Never without your consent.
Privacy
What we will never do
- Directly connect affected people with each other or share names
- Share data without your explicit consent
- Read your encrypted report — technically impossible without your token
- Store your email address — it is only processed as an anonymous hash
Ready when you are.
You don't have to decide anything today. Saving a report only means that you're keeping the option open.
