Safeguarding, data protection and copyright
The policies every learner accepts, how they are shown, and how to handle a concern.
- 1
What learners accept
At sign-up every learner must accept FEMNET's safeguarding, data protection and copyright policies. The hub records when each learner accepted them, under Current account state on their learner record.
- 2
Where the policies live
The policies are public pages in the learner app at /policies, linked from the footer of every page and from the sign-up form. The footer's Certified: Safeguarding & data protection seal links to them.

Handling a safeguarding concern
Concerns are reported to speakup@femnet.or.ke, which FEMNET's safeguarding committee reviews. If a learner raises a concern with you, pass it on there promptly, keep it confidential, and do not investigate yourself. Admins can suspend an account from the learner record while a matter is looked into.

Changing the policies
The text is adapted from FEMNET's published policies. When FEMNET updates a policy, ask IT to update the policy pages and raise the policy version, so new acceptances are recorded against the new wording.
