Have something to share about TikTok?

TikTok has become one of America’s most popular apps, even as lawmakers try to ban it. The New York Times wants to learn more about the company behind this powerful platform and the people who use it.

My name is Sapna Maheshwari and I am the beat reporter covering TikTok for The Times. I’m looking for people connected to the company in a variety of ways, including:

• Current and Former Employees. We would like to know more about the relationship between TikTok and its parent company, Chinese app maker ByteDance. We also want to know more about how TikTok feels about its business in the United States, from ad sales to e-commerce, and how the company manages content on the platform.

• People who use TikTok. How does it affect your life? If you are a parent or educator, how do you see young people using the app? Do you use it?

• Those in unique communities on TikTok and people making money from the platform in unexpected ways.

We will not publish any part of your submission, including your personal information, without contacting you first. We may contact you with further questions. If you would like to share a story with us anonymously, write to us at nytimes.com/tips.
