SafeConsent

SafeConsent: Consent Made Clear, Safe, and Verifiable. SafeConsent provides a secure, transparent, and legally conscious way to document clear verbal consent prior to intimacy. Designed with absolute privacy at its core, SafeConsent ensures all video recordings and metadata remain encrypted on your device—never uploaded to external servers or cloud accounts. KEY FEATURES: • ON-DEVICE PRIVACY GUARANTEE Your recordings stay 100% local. SafeConsent does not store, upload, or transmit your videos to cloud servers. What happens on your phone stays on your phone. • GUIDED CONSENT BRIEFING & RECORDING Follow an official on-screen prompt ensuring both parties state clear, sober, and voluntary consent on camera before intimacy begins. • FORENSIC METADATA & CRYPTOGRAPHIC PROOF Every recorded session generates a tamper-evident cryptographic hash alongside precise date, time, and GPS coordination tracks for clear, verifiable documentation. • BIOMETRICALLY LOCKED LOCAL VAULT Access your saved recordings inside a dark, high-security local vault protected by Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode. • REVOCABLE AT ANY TIME Clear language framing reinforces that consent can be revoked at any point, upholding modern legal and personal standards. HOW IT WORKS: 1. REVIEW SCRIPT: Read the guided, on-screen consent script. 2. RECORD SESSION: Record a brief video stating voluntary consent. 3. VERIFY & SAVE: Review real-time metadata and lock the session directly into your Encrypted Local Vault. Take control of your personal safety and legal peace of mind with SafeConsent.
