Privacy & Safety Policy

Safety & vetting: allowed vs prohibited

You have every right to know who is in your home, near your children and inside this platform. Under 💎 we answer that with disclosure and lawful records — asked for openly, gathered with consent or by subpoena — never with a secret dossier on a private person. The reason is simple: the same tool that profiles someone near you is the tool that gets used on the families we protect.

Allowed

• Ask directly, in writing

  A plain disclosure form: legal name and prior names, addresses for the last ten years, employment and service history, licenses, any orders of protection, any open or past case involving a child. The person answers and signs it. Refusal is itself an answer.

• Consent-based checks

  Where a role warrants it — living in the home, caring for a child, holding platform access — we run a real check through a compliant provider with signed authorization, and the person gets a copy of the same report we get.

• Public records that are actually public

  Court dockets, recorded deeds and liens, tax rolls, licensing boards, corporate filings. Anyone may read them. We read them the same way a judge would and cite where each fact came from.

• Records through counsel

  Medical, military, employment, financial and treatment records are pulled by subpoena or authorized release through your attorney. That is the lawful path, and it holds up in court — which a rumor file never will.

• Your own file, always

  Anything you are a party to — your deed, your tax notices, your case files, your texts and payments — you get in full, organized, on demand.

• Facts-only timeline

  Dates, documents, who was present, what was paid, what was said. No characterizations, no diagnoses, no theories about a person’s mind. That timeline is what an eviction, a custody motion or a safety order actually turns on.

• Safety documented immediately

  A specific threat or incident gets logged the hour it happens with time, place, witnesses and evidence, and routed to 911, the DV officer and your attorney. Danger is answered with protection, not with research.

• Access reviewed continuously

  Inside DBATR, everyone’s access is listed, scoped and revocable in one click. Trust here is a permission set you can see, not a background rumor.

Prohibited

• No secret dossiers on private people — not for Jake, not for staff, not for anyone on this platform.
• No pulling medical, military, treatment or financial records without consent or a subpoena.
• No mapping a person’s family, friends, exes or coworkers to build a picture of them.
• No naming a private individual as an abuser, an addict or mentally ill on this site.
• No standing rule that everyone near you gets investigated. Vetting attaches to a role someone accepts, not to a person we are suspicious of.
• No purchased data brokers, no scraping, no pretexting, no logins that are not ours.

This is not caution for its own sake. A dossier is inadmissible, it can expose you to civil liability, and it is the exact behavior we tell courts and agencies to stop doing to the families we serve. Disclosure plus subpoena gets you more real answers, faster, and every one of them is usable.

The full standard, including how honor and hate speech are handled, lives on the 💎 Standard.
