Post by badsha0016 »

Hardware Model: Type of phone or device (e.g., iPhone 15, Samsung Galaxy S25).
Operating System Information: Version of iOS, Android, Windows, or macOS.

Browser Information: If using WhatsApp Web/Desktop.
Mobile Network Information: Mobile operator, Internet Service Provider (ISP), connection type (Wi-Fi, cellular data).
Language and Time Zone.
IP Address: Used to estimate general geographic location (country/city) and for security purposes (e.g., detecting suspicious logins or unusual activity).
Device Identifiers: Unique identifiers for your device (e.g., hardware identifiers, operating system identifiers). These can be used to link your WhatsApp activity across different Meta products if you choose to opt into Accounts Center.

Used for WhatsApp Web/Desktop to improve user turkey phone number list experience, remember preferences, and analyze service usage.

WhatsApp also receives information about users from third parties:

Other Users: If another user uploads your phone number from their address book to WhatsApp, or if another user reports you for violating terms of service (e.g., for spam, abuse, or content violations).

Third-Party Services: If you use third-party services thatp:
Cloud Backups: If you use Google Drive or iCloud for chat backups, those services receive your encrypted chat history. While WhatsApp offers its own E2EE backup, if not enabled, the backup's security relies on the cloud provider's encryption.
Integrated Content: When you view content from other services (e.g., YouTube, Facebook) within WhatsApp, some technical information (e.g., that you accessed an external link) may be shared to enable this functionality.
