Mobidata — preowned mobile registry

The problem we walked into.

When a shop buys a second-hand phone, that record can end up as evidence — who sold it, what condition it was in, and whether they agreed to the sale. Photographs in a chat thread are not that record. It has to be complete at the counter, and it has to be impossible to quietly change afterwards.

How we framed it.

Capture everything in one guided flow at intake, so a complete record never depends on staff remembering what to collect. From there the record is built to stay dependable long after the sale — trustworthy when it actually matters, and proven recoverable rather than assumed to be.

What we shipped.

A guided intake flow for counter staff producing a complete, independently timestamped record for every device — dependable enough to rely on months later, and proven recoverable rather than assumed to be.

• Guided intake: a fixed set of photographs and a recorded consent video for every device
• Independent timestamps, so the date on a record cannot be disputed later
• Records built to stay trustworthy for as long as they are needed
• Destructive actions are restricted and fully accounted for
• Recovery tested on a routine schedule, not assumed
