You can attempt to dissuade them from searching help or reporting you by having an honest discussion with them about your activities and the motivations behind them. Acknowledge that what you're doing is legally murky and could potentially get you in trouble, and explain why it is important to you (e.g. for research, for a cause, etc). Reassure them that their safety and wellbeing is your priority, so there is no need for them to be suspicious or seek external help.

To prevent your partner from becoming suspicious of your activities, it is best to keep up an open dialogue with them and be as honest and forthcoming as possible. Explain why you're staying online so much, show them any relevant information that might prove you’re not doing anything wrong or lying to them. Avoid doing any activities that could be questionable in their eyes, especially if you already know they are suspicious. Finally if necessary agree to compromise by setting stricter limitations on your internet usage or signing up for tracking software so they can monitor your activity.
