# Internal notes

With Internal Notes, you can enter notes about an event and add attachments and then share them with your team. These notes are for internal use only and will not be shared with suppliers. This is helpful for compliance purposes to track information shared outside of Fairmarkit, such as through phone calls or meetings.
