If you use Facebook Messenger to register with U-Report, we may collect your account name, given this channel requires creating a Facebook Page that will identify from which Facebook Account the message is being sent.   

As you interact with U-Report, we may collect information you provide via U-Report channels including responses to survey questions, interactions with chatbots and any unsolicited messages you send to us.   

We may use information collected via U-Report to undertake analysis and research, including in relation to child rights.
