Privacy Policy

Account & profile data

When you sign up we collect your name, work email, phone number, country, timezone, password (hashed via bcrypt), and any profile photo you upload.

Workspace & operational data

To deliver the Service we process: workspace name, connected WhatsApp numbers, broadcast templates, flow definitions, contact lists, team-member emails and roles, billing details, and audit-log events.

Customer message data

WaDesk stores the messages, attachments, and metadata that flow through your workspace. You are the data controller for this content; we act as a processor under our DPA.

Usage & telemetry

Anonymous usage events (page views, feature clicks, performance metrics) and standard server logs (IP address, browser type, request time) are captured for security and product improvement.

We use the data we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
• Process payments, send invoices, and manage your subscription
• Respond to support requests and security incidents
• Detect, prevent, and address abuse, fraud, and security threats
• Send transactional emails (receipts, security alerts, product updates you opted into)
• Comply with legal obligations including tax, accounting, and law-enforcement requests

We never sell your data or your customers' data.

We share data only in these limited circumstances:
