PageFreezer

Pagefreezer is archiving software that captures online records and keeps them for compliance, investigations and litigation. It archives websites, social media accounts, mobile text messages and enterprise collaboration platforms, and it makes the stored material searchable and exportable. The company says more than 1,800 organizations use its service and that it focuses on recordkeeping for online content.

Compliance recordkeeping for regulated firms

Archiving is automated, so content is captured over time without staff having to save it by hand. The software is presented as a way to meet recordkeeping rules such as FOIA, SEC and FINRA requirements, and to keep records tamper-proof, searchable and ready for regulatory audits. Financial services firms, government bodies, education providers, healthcare organizations and public safety agencies are among the sectors it names.

Digital records for eDiscovery and litigation

For legal teams, the software locates, holds and exports records from digital platforms, which the company says reduces the risk, cost and time of responding to litigation. Retention scheduling and legal hold are part of the offer, so records can be preserved while a matter is open. The company also positions its service for open records requests, helping public bodies respond to requests made under freedom of information laws.

Evidence from websites and social media

Investigators and internal review teams use the software to capture online content before it is edited or deleted. The company says this supports defensible copies that can be used in legal matters, and it describes capture at the point of origin as the way to keep records straight rather than relying on later copies. Social media archiving covers accounts on the main platforms.

Collaboration tools and mobile messages

Enterprise collaboration archiving covers tools such as Slack, and the mobile range covers text messages on phones. Together they cover the main forms of business communication that compliance teams are asked to keep. The company also publishes guides on evidence collection and archiving, and it runs a program of work with nonprofit groups aimed at a safer internet.

Who relies on it and where it operates

According to the company, its software is used across government, financial services, legal, telecoms, retail, education, healthcare and public safety. Its offices are in Vancouver, Delft in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Australia, and it says its records are gathered straight from the original online location so that they can be used later in legal and regulatory matters.
