In their own words
Every account here was read by a moderator before it was published, and identifying details were taken out.
Before you tell us anything
Speaking up should never put you at risk. This is how the record is kept safe. How we protect your data
- Your name stays out of it
- You don't need an account or a name. If you do sign in, your name is shown only if you choose to show it.
- Nobody can trace you from the map
- Every location is rounded to about a kilometre before it is saved. Your exact position is never stored.
- A person reads it first
- Nothing is published until a moderator has reviewed it. If you ask for help, only our support team sees how to reach you.
