🌍 GlobalWhatsApp BotCookie Policy

Free Cookie Policy Generator for WhatsApp Bot β€” Global Compliant

WhatsApp Business API bots process phone numbers, message content, and conversation history β€” some of the most personal data a user can share. Meta's Business Terms of Service impose strict requirements on how WhatsApp Business API data can be stored and used. End-to-end encryption protects messages in transit, but once your bot receives and processes a message, you become a data controller responsible for that data under GDPR and other applicable laws. If your website serves visitors from multiple countries, your privacy policy should reflect a globally recognized baseline of privacy best practices.

🌍 Key Global Requirements

If your website serves visitors from multiple countries, your privacy policy should reflect a globally recognized baseline of privacy best practices. While no single global law exists, the principles of transparency, consent, data minimization, security, and individual rights are common across GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and most modern privacy frameworks.

  • Be transparent about what data you collect, why, and how long you keep it
  • Obtain consent where required and provide opt-out mechanisms
  • Honor data subject rights: access, correction, deletion, and portability where applicable
  • Implement appropriate security measures to protect personal data
  • Disclose all third parties with whom you share data
  • Maintain an up-to-date privacy policy and notify users of material changes
Data retention note: Best practice is to document specific retention periods for each data category and delete data when those periods expire.
