Meta's role
Meta processes message data as our service provider and under its own WhatsApp Business terms and Privacy Policy.
International transfers
Our primary systems are in India. Some service providers (for example Vercel and Meta) may process data on servers outside India, including in the United States and the European Union. We transfer data abroad only as permitted by section 16 of the DPDP Act and never to a country restricted by the Government of India. For data relating to people in the EEA or UK, we rely on adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses with appropriate safeguards.
How long we keep it
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required by law, and then delete or anonymise it.
How we protect it
We use reasonable security practices, in line with the DPDP Rules 2025 and the IT (Reasonable Security Practices) Rules 2011, including:
- HTTPS / TLS encryption for all traffic, with HSTS
- Signed, short-lived, HTTP-only session cookies
- Strict Content Security Policy and anti-clickjacking headers
- Rate limiting and bot protection on public services
- Access limited to staff and partners who need it
- Separate, isolated access for each client company
If a personal data breach occurs, we will inform the Data Protection Board of India and affected individuals as required by law, and take steps to contain it.

Grievance redressal
Raise a complaint with us; we respond within 90 days at most.
If you are in the EEA or UK, you also have the right to restrict or object to processing, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
In India, if you are not satisfied with our response, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India after first using our grievance process.

Our services are meant for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18 without verifiable consent from a parent or lawful guardian, and we do not track or target advertising at children.
