Frequently Asked Questions

What is LiveSafe?
LiveSafe is a free mobile app made available by the 91桃色. Designed to prevent crime and enable better incident response, the LiveSafe technology includes an app for smartphone users that is connected to a cloud-based dashboard. This dashboard is monitored by officials within the University Police Department.

What are the main features of LiveSafe?
The core features include quick tip submittal via text with picture and video attachments (including the option to stay anonymous), live chat with safety officials, fast access to emergency phone numbers that initiate location tracking when called, and a peer-to-peer tool called SafeWalk that allows friends to watch out for each other through location monitoring and group chat. Additionally, app users can receive important broadcast notifications specific to their campus.

Why would someone use this app in an emergency?
So long as users have the capacity to make voice calls, we encourage anyone in an emergency to always call 9-1-1. If, however, a user is unable to make a direct call due to situational or technical issues, or if they must be discrete, then LiveSafe reporting becomes advantageous. Additionally, when the Emergency button is used to dial 9-1-1, dial campus police, or message campus police, location services are enabled to help emergency personnel find your location.

If I download LiveSafe, can law enforcement see my location whenever they want?
No. Your location is only sent to 91桃色 police when you submit a tip (anonymous or not) or use one of the features within the Emergency button (Call 911, Call Campus Police, or Message Campus Police). When you submit a tip, your current location is only submitted once and is attached to that tip 鈥� tracking is not enabled. However, when you use the Emergency button, your location is tracked until you stop location tracking within the Emergency button screen.

Why do I need to fill out a user profile after downloading LiveSafe?
Filling out the user profile will help law enforcement contact you if additional information is needed after you submit a tip. If you use the Emergency button, they will have immediate access to your name and contact information. This is imperative in emergency situations if you lose connection with law enforcement or if your identity is needed because you are in distress.

Is the anonymous feature really anonymous if I have filled out my user profile or if I use the chat feature?
Yes, it is. If you check the 鈥淪end Anonymously鈥� box when submitting a tip, your user information will show up as 鈥淎nonymous鈥� in all of the fields. Even if 91桃色 police use the Live Chat feature to obtain additional information, you will still appear as anonymous.

What happens when I click 鈥淐all 911鈥� from the Emergency button?
When you click on the 鈥淐all 911鈥� button from the Emergency screen, a confirmation bubble will appear with 鈥渃all鈥� or 鈥渃ancel鈥� options. This will help ensure that users do not accidentally call 911 if it is not an emergency.

When I first download LiveSafe, why is the app asking to access my contacts?
The app will ask to access your contacts so you can easily add friends and family members to your LiveSafe contact list. This list is used for SafeWalk.

Do I need to enable location services for LiveSafe for it to work?
Yes. In order for the location-dependent features to work 鈥� like SafeWalk, tip submittal, and location tracking during emergency calls and messages 鈥� LiveSafe needs to be able to access your location. You will not be actively tracked when the app is not in use and when you are using non-location-dependent features.

What if a tip I submit to 91桃色 police turns out to be a mistake?
Users will not be penalized for making claims that turn out to be untrue. So long as reports aren鈥檛 purposefully and falsely claimed, people are encouraged to share information with the police.
