Here are WhatsApp's new policies, here are the details

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.TV - Connection is important during the pandemic. Now talking about connections, at the beginning of this year WhatsApp announced to its users that they had a new policy regarding data.

It turns out that this makes Indonesian people nervous. So, this morning we will discuss WhatsApp.

If you are a Whatsapp user, last week you definitely received a notification on the application, new terms and conditions on this messaging service. In these terms it is written, by tapping agree, the new terms and privacy policy will take effect on February 8, 2021.

This is the point that makes customers worry. First and second points.

Because WhatsApp and Facebook are 1 company. Then WA will hand over all the data to Facebook. Starting from what time and what are your activities on WhatsApp.

So what internet network do you use, well actually since 2016, WA has had a term condition that allows WA to find out the IP address of its users, but the new policy now means that the data that WhatsApp can access is much shorter. And WA can also see your location.

Then the third point, communication with the business account owner. Right now there is WA for business, if for example you chat with this service, then your communication can be given to a third party, for business reasons.

There were those who responded normally to this rule, but many also panicked, until finally WhatsApp released a clarification regarding their new policy.

In this new policy there is also a statement that WA still offers end to end encryption, which means WA and third parties cannot read it.

This clarification emerged after the migration of WhatsApp users to other messaging services.

So this new policy is only for WA for business, which uses third parties, aka paid ones.

Although there is still the potential for conversations to be tapped, for example using a public WiFi network.
