You make someone your secret keeper, and then you or whatever else you want to stay hidden stays that way no matter what, unless the secret keeper tells the person directly where it is. They could be standing right next to you and never know it.
I read about it in a book. There was this wizarding sailor, Magister Wigbold, and he made his true love his secret keeper to the location of his gold, only she betrayed him and told where it was to one of his enemies.
It's wicked hard to do, though. Really complicated. I don't think the blood stuff had anything to do with that bit, though, because it's not blood magic. At least it wasn't in the book I read.
