Does MN have duty of care?

[KinkyDorito]

Having read some serious child abuse allegations on here, I wondered whether MN reports these threads to the police or social services? I realise that it could be a hoax, but surely it should be investigated?

Hi KinkyDorito

As we say in our Privacy Policy: 'We do not, as a clear and overarching rule, pass on your information, unless you specifically consent to us doing so or we are specifically required to by law. However, on rare occasions where there appears to be a clear need to safeguard the welfare of a Mumsnetter and/or his/her family, it may be necessary to contact relevant authorities about a clearly identifiable member and his/her posts on Mumsnet.

Thank you for responding. That's super .
