>We track the date, time, length of call, what service the caller was from (Police, Fire, EMS, Corrections, Military, Other) and what type of assistance we provided. We do not keep any details on what the caller said and we do not ask for any identifying details of a caller as the call is completely anonymous. Our 1-833 is blocked so we do not see the caller’s phone number.
