ABOUT DFI
Care in the method. Clarity in the record.
Discuss collection, transfer, access and retention arrangements as part of the scope of each matter.
01
Collection and traceability.
Identify the source, document the collection and preserve an understandable handling record. Record verification steps appropriate to the method and explain relevant limits.
02
Access and communication.
Agree who can provide, receive and review the material. Sensitive evidence and access information should move through agreed channels, not this website or an unsolicited email attachment.
03
Retention and delivery.
Confirm delivery format, storage responsibilities and retention arrangements under the engagement. Data-residency requirements and retention periods must be confirmed for the engagement.
