Trusted Circle

Share with the people you choose

Reaching out for help shouldn’t mean losing control of your evidence. Trusted Circle lets you bring in a solicitor, an IDVA, a counsellor or a friend, on your terms, and take access back whenever you want.

Your circle

You decide who sees what

Add the people you trust one at a time, and choose for each of them exactly what they can see. Members never see each other.

  • Reports only, reports with the original message logs, or your full backup for emergency access
  • Choose which kinds of journal entry to share, if any
  • See when each person last opened what you shared
  • Revoke anyone’s access instantly, from your phone or any web browser

What they can do

Support that keeps you in charge

For each person, you set what they can do with what you share. A professional can review the evidence and leave you notes, collated in one place rather than scattered across messages and email.

  • Add notes for you on a report or shared journal entry How notes work
  • See your own notes, if you choose
  • Export a PDF or print, only if you allow it
  • Every share is protected by a link and an access code you give them yourself, and the link can expire

Notes

A conversation around the evidence

Add notes to any section of a report or journal entry, and choose, person by person, whether they see them. The people you trust can add notes of their own, and every one comes back to you on the section it’s about.

Illustration: you see your own notes and every note from your circle; your solicitor sees the notes you chose to share plus their own; your IDVA sees only their own; all notes are encrypted and kept in step through your backup
If you can’t be reached

Emergency access, only if you arm it

You can pre-authorise someone to ask for more access if you’re ever unreachable. You’re told straight away and can allow or decline. Leave it off unless you’d trust that person with everything.

  • Separate from day-to-day sharing, and off by default
  • Up to three people can hold full emergency access
  • You choose whether journal entries are included if access is ever released
