Details on confidentiality, data access, storage, and how reports are protected and retained.

Confidentiality within the policy means information is shared only with personnel who need it to address the concern.

Access to reports is controlled by role. HR, compliance, and designated investigators may review materials.

Recordkeeping and retention policies ensure records are stored securely and kept in line with legal requirements.

Data protection measures include encryption, access controls, and audit trails to prevent unauthorized access.

Rights to review or appeal: reporters may request a review of handling in accordance with policy; timelines apply.

Secure storage and disposal: data is disposed securely when no longer needed and in line with retention schedules.
