Which policy governs safeguarding member information during investigations?

Safeguarding member information during investigations is governed by privacy protection. This policy sets how sensitive data is handled: who may access it, under what circumstances, and how it’s stored, transmitted, and disposed of. It emphasizes limiting exposure to only those with a legitimate need-to-know, using secure methods (like encryption and secure channels), and ensuring proper destruction of records when appropriate. This protects confidentiality and helps comply with privacy-related regulatory requirements. The other options relate to spotting suspicious activity, collecting victim demographics, or outlining how to report concerns, rather than detailing how to protect data during an investigation.
