Exploring technology safety in the context of intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and violence against women.

Managed by the Safety Net Project at the National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV), this blog explores the intersection between technology, intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and violence against women.

Safety Net focuses on the intersection of technology and abuse, and we work to address how that abuse impacts the safety, privacy, accessibility, and civil rights of survivors. Our team provides expert training and technical assistance, creates and disseminates resources, and influences conversations on technology abuse and safety globally. Safety Net is a project of the National Network to End Domestic Violence.

Advocacy Works! Tech Platform, Gruveo, Makes Privacy & Safety Updates

December 09, 2020/ Elaina Roberts

Here’s proof that advocacy works! The technology company, Gruveo, a video telecommunications platform, just implemented a “purge” option for agencies using their service. It took some time, but we asked for additional functionality that increases privacy and safety options and we got it. Being able to purge video telecommunication logs is huge when it comes to keeping survivor information secure and private when providing direct services. Read more about Gruveo’s most recent updates. For more on platforms, digital services, and safety/privacy considerations, see our Digital Services Toolkit.
