Secure Document Transfer Process
When your matter contains sensitive material, you should know which information can travel through ordinary contact channels and which should move through a more controlled route.

Purpose
After suitability and scope are considered, Aperture will advise on an appropriate transfer method based on sensitivity, jurisdiction, volume and client requirements.
Before sending documents
Confirm the transfer method first.
Do not send privileged, highly sensitive, regulated or restricted material until Aperture has confirmed an approved transfer method and accepted the relevant data-handling requirements in writing.

What is confirmed before sensitive material is transferred.
Access and handling
Who may handle the material, any specialist dependency and matter-specific restrictions are addressed before restricted material is accepted.
Retention and disposition
Applicable retention, legal-hold, return or deletion requirements are confirmed where the engagement requires them. Aperture does not promise a universal retention period where matter or law may require a different treatment.
