You can also contact us at any time to withdraw your consent as described here. We process your data to comply with legal retention obligations. This includes, in particular, requirements from tax and commercial law. In certain cases, we process your data to protect our legitimate interests.

3. Disclosure to Recipients

Data is disclosed to third parties or other recipients, such as our processors, for the purpose of sending messages via WhatsApp.

We place great importance on processing your data within the EU/EEA. However, it may occur that we use service providers who process data outside the EU/EEA. When transferring data to countries outside the EU/EEA, it must be noted that the high European data protection level may not be guaranteed there. For example, there is a risk that these data may be processed by third-country authorities without effective legal remedies being available or all data subject rights being enforceable. In these cases, we ensure that an adequate level of data protection comparable to the standards within the EU is established at the recipient before your personal data is transmitted. This can be achieved, for example, through EU standard contracts or Binding Corporate Rules.

Please note that your phone number and WhatsApp profile name will be transferred to WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, Infobip Limited, 18/F, On Building, 162 Queen’s Road Central, Central Hong Kong, Edensoft Holdings Limited，2/F, Building A, Shenzhen International Innovation Center, 1006 Shennan Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, PRC.
