Privacy in exports
We never collect, and therefore can never export, a reporter's name, email, account, raw IP address or device fingerprint. What you see in the export is the entirety of what we store about a report.
Methodology & honest limits
This is a self-selected, anonymous sample. It shows patterns in what people choose to report, not a statistical measurement of corruption in Nepal. Districts with more internet access will report more. Treat single reports as anecdotes; treat clusters as signals worth investigating.
