WAWCD - Privacy Policy

Published Apr 25th, 2025. Effective as of Apr 25th, 2025.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how WAWCD collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website, Chrome extension, and related services.

The goal of this local static version is to mirror the current live privacy policy in this branch without depending on Strapi for now.

2. Information Collection and Use

Information collected through our services is limited to what is reasonably required to provide the product features you choose to use.

We use collected information to operate the service, support your account, improve product performance, and communicate important updates.

3. Browser, Device, and Service Data

We may collect technical information such as browser type, device details, IP address, operating system, extension activity, and product usage diagnostics.

This information helps us detect abuse, troubleshoot issues, analyze trends, and improve reliability.

4. Authentication and Google Sign-In

WAWCD may use Google Sign-In to verify your identity and create or maintain your product access.

When you sign in with Google, we may receive basic account information such as your email address for licensing, product access, and service communication.

5. OAuth 2.0 and Data Security

Our services use Google OAuth 2.0 so we do not need your Google password and do not store your login credentials in our own database.

OAuth access is limited to the scopes required by the features you enable, and data remains governed by the security of your Google account.

6. Access to Google User Data

WAWCD may request access to selected Google services only when those permissions are needed for a specific workflow you choose to use.

We do not broadly scan unrelated content in your Google account.

  • Google Sheets API: export chats, contacts, broadcast reports, or analytics into spreadsheets you control.
  • Google Drive API: let you browse and select the spreadsheet files used for import or audience management.
  • Google Calendar API: create and manage scheduling events related to WhatsApp broadcasts.
  • Google Tasks API: create and manage follow-up tasks connected to your workflow activity.

7. How Google Data Is Handled

We only interact with the files, sheets, calendars, or tasks that are directly connected to the feature you are actively using.

We do not store unrelated Google account data on our servers, and where possible processing stays inside the browser extension flow.

8. Limited Use Disclosure

Use and transfer of information received from Google APIs is subject to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

9. Data Protection Measures

We take data protection seriously and apply practical safeguards to secure user information in transit and in use.

  • HTTPS and TLS are used to protect data transmission.
  • We apply data minimization and only access the information needed for the feature in use.
  • Where feasible, data processing is handled locally in the browser extension.

10. Log Files and Analytics

Like many online services, we collect non-personal analytics such as browser version, IP address, operating system, and product interactions.

These logs help us understand trends, diagnose issues, and reduce misuse.

11. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell or trade personal information. We may work with third-party providers for operational needs such as payments or infrastructure support.

Where a third party is involved, access is limited to what is necessary for the service being delivered.

12. Third-Party Privacy Policies

This Privacy Policy applies to WAWCD. Other services, websites, advertisers, or integrations you use may be governed by their own privacy policies.

13. Your Rights

You can stop using the service by uninstalling the extension, revoking connected permissions, or contacting us regarding account or data questions.

If your personal information changes, or if you want certain service access removed, you may contact us for support.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will remain available at the privacy-policy route on our website.

Continued use of the service after updates are published indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
