"If Telegram receives an official request from competent judicial authorities confirming that you are a suspect in a criminal case involving illegal activities that violate Telegram's user agreement, we will conduct a legal analysis of the request and may provide your IP address and phone number to the relevant authorities. If any data is provided, it will be displayed in the report, which is updated every three months on the official channel: https://t.me/transparency," states section 8.3 of Telegram's privacy policy.
The data disclosure report is updated every three months, according to Telegram's official Transparency Reports bot. The next report is expected in April 2025.
