anonymous reporting
Tipline without identification
Anonymous reporting is the practice of submitting information—typically about misconduct, safety concerns, or illegal activity—without revealing one's identity.
Organizations establish anonymous reporting systems so employees or witnesses can flag problems without fear of retaliation: The company set up an anonymous reporting hotline for ethics violations.
Schools use it for bullying concerns; workplaces for harassment complaints.
