If you’re not sure it counts, report it anyway. A trained analyst will assess it.

Before you start
What to have ready
You do not need proof or all the answers. Start with what you know. You can write “I do not know” where you are unsure.
Something online
- The web address (link) where you saw it
- The app or website name
- Usernames or account names
Never send the pictures or videos. The link is enough.
Something that happened in person
- Where and when it happened
- What you saw or were told
- Who was involved, if you know
Not sure of every detail? Report anyway. Our analyst will read it.

If images are online
Help from our partners
If sexual images or videos of you are online, or someone is threatening to share them, these free services can help stop them spreading. You don’t have to share the images.
The images were taken when I was:
Take It Down
For nude or sexual images or videos of you taken before you turned 18. This free service from the US National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) helps remove them from participating platforms and stop them being shared again. You can stay anonymous.
Visit Take It DownStopNCII.org
For adults whose intimate images have been shared, or are threatened to be shared, without consent. It makes a digital fingerprint of the image on your own device and shares only that fingerprint with partner platforms, so copies can be detected and blocked.
Visit StopNCIIReport it to APLE
Our analysts can also work with platforms to remove sexual images of a child, and refer the case to police. Send us the link, never the image itself.

Questions before you report
No question matches. Try another word, or start a report: an analyst can answer you.
Yes. The report form asks whether you want to share your contact details. Choose “No, I wish to report anonymously” and leave them out.
Yes. You don’t need proof. Tell us what you saw or were told, and a trained analyst will decide what should happen next.
Our hotline analysts assess it and may send it to the police for investigation. If it involves sexual images or videos of children, we may work with law enforcement and other agencies to have the content removed from the internet and to support a police investigation.
Screenshots of chats or profiles help. Never download, screenshot or forward sexual images or videos of a child: that can itself be a crime. Send us the link (URL) instead.
Images, videos or other material showing the sexual abuse or exploitation of a child, known as child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Under Cambodia’s Law on Suppression of Human Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation (2008), producing, distributing or possessing it for distribution is a crime, punishable by up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to 10 million riel.
CSAM (child sexual abuse material) is any image, video, writing or recording of child sexual abuse or exploitation. We say CSAM, not “child pornography”, because this material is a record of abuse.
Grooming is when someone builds a child’s trust in order to sexually abuse or exploit them, online or in person.
Sextortion is threatening to share sexual images of a child to force them to send more images, money or sexual acts.
