WhatsApp and Cloud API specifics
- We use Meta’s WhatsApp Cloud API to send and receive messages at scale; messages are encrypted with the Signal protocol when delivered through WhatsApp.
- The Cloud API temporarily stores messages only as needed to provide core API functions and for potential retransmission, after which they are removed per Meta’s service design.
- We adhere to WhatsApp Business Messaging Policy regarding consent, template use, and age/geography gating where required.
Legal bases for processing
Where applicable, we process personal data based on:
- Performance of a contract (to provide requested services).
- Legitimate interests (responding to queries, site security, service improvement).
- Consent (marketing communications, certain analytics/cookies where required, and initiating WhatsApp conversations where consent is required by law).
- Legal obligations (record‑keeping, compliance with authorities).
Data retention
- Website records and correspondence are retained only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy or as required by law.
- WhatsApp Cloud API retains messages temporarily for delivery/retry; we retain business conversation records only as needed for support, compliance, and dispute resolution in line with our internal retention schedules.
Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data with:
- Service providers and processors (hosting, analytics, security, communications) under contracts that require confidentiality and data protection.
- WhatsApp/Meta infrastructure as required to route messages via Cloud API and comply with platform policies.
- Authorities or third parties when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security.

Security
We implement administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect personal information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and monitoring. WhatsApp message transport is protected by end‑to‑end encryption when delivered through WhatsApp; Cloud API performs necessary handling as a messaging relay service.
