Parents and guardians

Parents and guardians in some regions have certain rights to their minor’s data, such as:
  • The right to access, delete, or correct data, with some exceptions (for example, when we need to protect the safety, security or rights of others).
  • To provide parental or guardian consent on behalf of their minor.
If you are a parent or guardian of a WhatsApp user who is a minor, and you’d like to make a data privacy inquiry or request, please contact us through our privacy form.
