Confidentiality and Suicide Policy

We are a confidential and anonymous organisation. This means we do not share the details of our callers or our volunteers outside of our service. We will not ask you to share any personal details, attempt to identify you or approach you outside of the calls you make. However, we may need to make an exception to this if you reveal details of a crime or tell us someone is in danger including you. For full details see here.

Technology Anonymity Statement

Norwich Nightline technologies have the capability to display the identity of the contact via details such as Skype usernames and phone numbers when contacting a Norwich Nightline via Skype or text. These details will not be noted down by volunteers unless a contact reveals a genuine intent to commit a crime, act of terrorism, or to take their own life (see our confidentiality policy). Telephone calls, emails and the Nightline IM system are completely anonymous.
