You share data with other members when you voluntarily disclose information on the service for others to see (e.g., your public profile).

If someone submits a report involving you (such as a claim you violated our Terms of Use), we may let the reporter know what actions we took, if any, as a result of their report. The same applies if you submit a report involving another member.

If another member requests a copy of their personal data, they may receive the messages you sent them.
