The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force in Europe on May 25, 2018. Since taking back our right to privacy was the reason we made Telegram, there wasn't much we had to change. We don’t use your data for ad targeting, we don’t sell it to others, and we're not part of any mafia family “family of companies.”
Telegram only keeps the information it needs to function as a feature-rich cloud service. For example, your cloud chats – so that you can access them from any devices without using third-party backups, or your contacts – so that you can rely on your existing social graph when messaging people on Telegram. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information.

The Regulation (EU) 2021/784 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2021 on addressing the dissemination of terrorist content online (Terrorist Content Online Regulation, or TCO) allows authorities in EU countries to send removal requests for terrorist content, if it is discovered on Telegram's public platform. To reach the Telegram team with TCO-related requests, competent EU authorities can send the /tco_contact command to @GDPRbot.
Users whose publications were taken down in connection with the EU Regulation 2021/784 can contact @GDPRbot and use the command /tco_ask to ask why their publications were considered terrorist and how to challenge the removal.
