WhatsApp users have until mid-May to agree to the new guidelines. Until then, the ambassador wants to do educational work – in practice.
Share It plans to introduce a banner for users in the coming weeks, which will be visible at the top of the “Chat” tab. This banner is designed to give users the opportunity to take a closer look at the new Terms of Use. WhatsApp writes in a press release.
The background to this action is an announcement from WhatsApp, To modify its terms of use. Because with the new guidelines, the ambassador will be able to carry personal data in the future Facebook Share. This ensured that users were switching in alternative ways. WhatsApp responds and extends deadline: Users now have until May 15 to accept the new guidelines. If you do not, you will not be able to use Messenger later.
WhatsApp wants to enlighten users with banners
According to WhatsApp, the upcoming banner should give users the opportunity to deal more closely with the planned update “at their own pace”.
(That: WhatsApp)
According to WhatsApp, changes in the guidelines only affect the upgrade of the company’s accounts so that users can better interact with companies through a custom function. According to Facebook, the owner of Facebook, the big changes are “more clearly designed, detailed user information on how and why data is processed”.
The banner reads: “Update expands our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy to include additional information, for example, how you can chat with companies if you wish”. WhatsApp also insists on private chats and end-to-end encryption. Contact lists should not be shared on Facebook either.
If you want more information about the update, WhatsApp sends the banner to a globally standardized website.
