Reporting Technology-Facilitated Sexual Violence

Internal to SFU

If you have experienced instances of sexual violence online by a member of the SFU community through SFU technologies (i.e. Canvas modules, SFU Zoom meetings, SFU email, etc.), you have the ability to make a report under SFU’s Sexual Violence and Misconduct, Prevention, Education and Support policy (GP 44). 

To find out more about your options you can connect with an SVSPO case manager by reaching out by email sv-support@sfu.ca or by visiting our Contact Us page for more options.

Most social media sites have their own protocols and procedures when it comes to the intake of reports of sexual violence and breaches of each platform’s policies. Here are a few examples: 

  1. Report content on Facebook
  2. Report content on Instagram
  3. Snapchat Transparency, Community Guidelines & Rules 

An SVSPO case manager can guide you in reporting technology-facilitated sexual violence to social media platforms. To connect with an SVSPO case manager, reach out to us via email sv-support@sfu.ca or visit our Contact Us page, and we can help you explore your options.
