Indeed, the as-of-yet unsolved Black hole information paradox [1] deals with conservation of information. Since discovery that Hawking radiation [2] carries no information theoretical phisicists are looking for ways to reconcile it with 'no-hair theorem' [3] which claims no discernable information is ever emmitted from beyond event horizon, yet information apparently is input into the black hole as more matter falls into it.
