Become a whistleblower

Many of our investigations begin with reports from anonymous or undercover informants. If you are aware of a serious issue related to the topics we cover and expose, you could become one too. Your contribution will allow us to investigate further, publish, and, above all, bring visibility to critical situations that risk remaining hidden or unknown.

If you are a citizen outraged by what you have seen. If you are an employee who can no longer witness what is happening. If your desire is to change things, but you feel powerless in the face of what you know, contact us. We will try to help you and work together to bring about change.

Your report will be reviewed and accepted if:

• You correctly complete all the necessary information requested in the form below.

The leak will naturally remain private. If we decide to use it for a public investigation, we will contact you to obtain your consent and will guarantee your anonymity if requested. However, we ask that you provide accurate data before we take on the case, so we can verify the reliability of the information sent and gather any additional details necessary to proceed with the required checks. We guarantee that your identity will remain protected.
Any information is fundamental. Therefore, we ask you to always provide the precise location where you observed the facts you are reporting, along with a description that is as detailed as possible. It is essential to have photo/video evidence of what you are reporting. Generally, a short video is the best choice compared to taking several photos. Do not worry about the quality; the important thing is that what you are documenting is clear and direct. You can easily create a short video and upload it using any smartphone through our form. The video format is not critical. If you are in a hurry, shoot vertically. However, if you have the time to film more calmly, remember to record in landscape mode (holding the phone horizontally). This will help capture more details in the shortest amount of time.
You are free to make the choice you deem most appropriate. The only thing we ask is that you immediately inform us who else—among law enforcement, public figures, or other entities/associations/media—has received the information and material you shared with us. This helps us understand how to coordinate and assess the status of the situation you are reporting on other fronts.
Reporting directly to authorities is certainly a valid option that we do not discourage. However, when it comes to more vulnerable individuals (such as farmed animals), authorities do not always act with immediate urgency. Thanks to our expertise and contacts, we can gather additional information necessary to make complaints more solid and effective. Furthermore, when authorities fail to intervene, we commit to shedding light on the situation through investigations, which often help spur concrete action, also thanks to potential media pressure.
We ask you to allow some time for our team to evaluate the information you have provided. We try to respond to everyone who contacts us, but as you can imagine, we receive many leaks. If we need further information, we will make every effort to contact you as soon as possible. At that point, one of our representatives, based on what you have provided, will outline the next steps to follow.
