  • Legal requirements: If required by law, court order, or government authority, we may disclose information as legally obligated.
  • Business transfer: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction, and you will be notified accordingly.

We retain your WhatsApp conversation records for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which they were collected, or as required by applicable law. In general:

  • Active support conversations are retained for up to 24 months after resolution.

  • You may request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 8 below).
