Last updated Nov. 15, 2026.
Summary
We collect whatever you choose to send us: a tip, a correction, a document or what you tell us on a call or in an interview. We do not sell your information. We do not run advertising networks, set cookies or follow you around the web.
What we collect, and why
| When | What | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You send a tip, a correction or a document | What you write, any link or file, and the name or email you add | So our editors can read it and, if you asked, reply |
| You call our newsroom line, or we call you about a story | A recording and a written transcript of the call, your phone number and anything you tell us. Every call says at the start that it is recorded | So our editors can report the story accurately, check what was said and call you back |
| You answer our questions through an interview link we sent you | Your recorded answers and their transcript, and the name you give | To report the story you agreed to talk with us about |
| You visit the site | Basic server logs kept by our host: page, time and browser type | To keep the site running and safe |
| You read a page | Cloudflare Web Analytics counts page views without cookies and without building a profile of you | To see which stories readers use |
What we do not do
- Sell, rent or trade email addresses, phone numbers, recordings or anything you send us.
- Load advertising networks or tracking pixels from other companies.
- Publish your name, email or tip without your yes.
- Collect anything from children.
Who sees it
Our editors read tips and notes and the transcripts of calls and interviews. Cloudflare hosts the site, counts page views and stores interview recordings; it processes that data for us under its own terms. Twilio carries our phone calls, and ElevenLabs handles the calls on our newsroom line and writes their transcripts; each processes call data for us under its own terms. Our pages load their typefaces from Google Fonts, which receives the address of your browser to send the font files. Any other service is named here when it is chosen.
Your choices
- Ask us what we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it.
- Withdraw a tip at any time before it is published.
