Help after something harmful happens online

What it would do

Four simple kinds of help after online harm.

It would not solve the case for you. It would help you slow down, organize the situation, and prepare for the next conversation.

1

Write it down

Save the date, app or website, a link, and a short note about what happened.

You do not need to copy harmful pictures or messages.
2

Check your notes

Read everything, fix mistakes, and remove details that feel too private or unsafe.

Every field would be optional.
3

Choose who can help

Compare choices such as a trusted adult, school, platform, counselor, or official help.

Nothing would be sent automatically.
4

Track what happens

Remember who you contacted, what they said, and whether you still need help.

You would keep one clear timeline.
In one sentence:It helps you prepare and communicate. It does not watch, investigate, decide who is guilty, or contact anyone for you.
A fictional example

See what the app would actually help someone do.

No real person or incident.

This example follows a student who receives cruel group-chat messages. Nothing entered here is saved or sent.

STEP 01 OF 05 NOT SHARED

A student receives repeated cruel messages in a class group chat.

They open Safe Evidence Companion and describe the situation in their own words. No names, screenshots, or account handles are needed for this example.

INFORMATION VISIBLE IN THIS STEP✓Approximate date✓Type of space✓Short description

Control ruleThe young person can stop or erase the draft at any time.

How it works

Four clear things the app helps you do.

It helps organize information and explain options. It does not investigate the incident, decide who is right, or contact anyone for you.

STEP 01

Make a simple, private record of the situation.

Add the date, app or website, a link if you have one, and a short description. You do not need to copy harmful images or repeat cruel messages.

✓Use your own words✓Every field is optional✓Save only what may help
What it can help with

Online situations that may be hard to explain alone.

The app helps organize a person’s own record of what happened. It does not prove an allegation or replace a qualified investigation.

01

Bullying or harassment

Repeated cruel messages, exclusion, humiliation, or targeted behavior.

02

Threats or intimidation

Messages or posts that make someone fear for their safety.

03

Sexual exploitation or grooming

Pressure, manipulation, unwanted sexual contact, or requests for images.

04

Impersonation or account misuse

Fake accounts, identity misuse, or someone posting as another person.

05

Image sharing without permission

A record of where an image appeared and what the person knows about its spread.

06

Platform or school follow-up

What was reported, when it was reported, and what response was received.

Choose who you are

What would this do for me?

Choose the description that is closest to you. Each answer explains the practical help in everyday language.

FOR CHILD

It helps you explain what happened without having to remember everything at once.

You could write a few simple notes, leave out anything you do not want to share, and see which trusted people may be able to help.

“You can stop, change your notes, or decide not to share.
Important

The app is not available yet. This website cannot take a report, store incident details, or send help.

Privacy and safety

What the app will—and will not—do.

The app is meant to help someone think clearly and prepare for a conversation. It is not a surveillance, investigation, or emergency-response tool.

“

Before anything is shared, the young person can review it, remove private details, choose who receives it, or decide not to share.

01

No secret monitoring

It does not watch messages, accounts, location, or device activity.

02

No automatic reports

It does not contact parents, schools, platforms, police, or other organizations.

03

No guilt or identity decisions

It does not decide what happened, identify an offender, or promise to trace someone.

04

No emergency response

It is not monitored and cannot provide immediate protection during a crisis.

Why this exists

Child safety should not require invisible surveillance.

Safe Evidence Companion is being designed around a simple conviction: young people need practical ways to understand harm, preserve useful context, and ask for help without losing ownership of their information or being promised certainty technology cannot provide.

The project welcomes rigorous criticism from young people, caregivers, educators, accessibility specialists, child-safety professionals, privacy experts, and researchers.
