It is important to be reassured that this database does not need internet access at any time. Childminders who use this database are therefore adhering, strongly, to their safeguarding requirements; by keeping constant access to the important information that they hold on the children in their care.  The data and personal information is not accessible to anyone outside of your home, and the database can only be accessed using the PC that it has been downloaded onto. 
As this database is saved onto the hard drive of your PC or laptop, and taking into consideration the amount of information and hard work that it holds, it is good practise to back it up on a regular basis. You can do this by saving it to a portable hard-drive, a USB stick or saving it to your personal account on Icloud or Google drive. The online data storages are very secure and as you need to set up a personal account with them before you can use it, they are safe to store information of such a delicate nature as only you can access them with your log in details.
