View Patent ↗Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for facilitating the disclosure of information from a disclosing party. Such a system may comprise a computing device including an operating system executing within the computing device; a software application operating in conjunction with the operating system, the software application prompting the disclosing party for at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data in response to the prompt; means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from the disclosing party; and means for irrecoverably erasing the least two of the audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from both the computing device and the means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data.
1. A method for obtaining the secure disclosure of information from a disclosing party by a computing device comprising:
receiving a log-in establishing an identity of the disclosing party;
receiving a transducer output initiated by the disclosing party, the transducer output instantiating a disclosure software application resident within the computing device;
providing a prompt to the disclosing party to provide audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data;
receiving at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data in response to the prompt;
uploading the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data after the disclosure software application has terminated; and
irrecoverably erasing the at least two of the audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from both the computing device and from the means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein receiving a log-in establishing the identity of the disclosing party is accomplished by the disclosing party providing biometric data.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein receiving a log-in establishing the identity of the disclosing party is accomplished by the disclosing party presenting a identification card with identification information electronically recorded thereon.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein uploading of the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data includes integrating the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data into a single synchronized multi-media format.
5. The method of claim 1 wherein providing a prompt to the disclosing party is accomplished by a monitoring third party.
6. A tangible computer readable medium containing instructions thereon for accomplishing acts comprising:
receive a log-in establishing an identity of the disclosing party;
receive a transducer output initiated by the disclosing party, the transducer output instantiating a disclosure software application resident within the computing device;
provide a prompt to the disclosing party to provide audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data;
receive at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data in response to the prompt;
upload the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data after the disclosure software application has terminated; and
irrecoverably erase the at least two of the audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data from both the computing device and from the means for contemporaneously collecting the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data.
7. The computer readable medium of claim 6 wherein receiving a log-in establishing the identity of the disclosing party is accomplished by the disclosing party providing biometric data.
8. The computer readable medium of claim 6 wherein receiving a log-in establishing the identity of the disclosing party is accomplished by the disclosing party presenting a identification card with identification information electronically recorded thereon.
9. The computer readable medium of claim 6 wherein uploading of the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data includes integrating the at least two of audio/visual data, graphic data and textual data into a single synchronized multi-media format file.
10. The computer readable medium of claim 6 wherein providing a prompt to the disclosing party is accomplished by a monitoring third party.
11. The computer readable medium of claim 6 wherein the multi-media format file is uploaded to a network database and meta-data derived from the multi-media format file is stored in a meta-database.
12. The computer readable medium of claim 6 further comprising the act of receiving an output signal from a timer at the completion of a preset time period, the timer output terminating the disclosure software application executing within the computing device.
