Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
1. Introduction
WazeApp ("we", "us", "our") operates the websites wazeapp.ai (marketing site) and app.wazeapp.ai (application dashboard), as well as the associated backend API at api.wazeapp.ai. WazeApp is a WhatsApp AI Agents SaaS platform that enables businesses to create and manage AI-powered WhatsApp bots.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our websites, create an account, or use our services. Please read this policy carefully. By accessing or using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, please do not access or use our services.
2. Information We Collect
We collect several types of information from and about users of our services, including the following:
2.1 Account Information
When you register for an account, we collect your name, email address, and password. If you choose to sign up via a third-party OAuth provider (Google, Facebook, or Microsoft), we receive your name, email address, and profile identifier from that provider. We also collect organization-level details such as your organization name and billing information.
2.2 WhatsApp Session Data
To provide our core service, we store WhatsApp session connection data that allows your AI agents to communicate on your behalf. This includes session tokens, connection state, and device-linking metadata. Session data is stored securely and is scoped to your organization.
2.3 Conversation Data
We store messages exchanged between your WhatsApp contacts and your AI agents. This includes text messages, media metadata (images, audio, video, documents), timestamps, sender and recipient identifiers, and message delivery statuses. Conversation data is isolated per organization and is never shared across organizations.
2.4 Knowledge Base Documents
When you upload documents to your knowledge base, we store the original files and process them into text chunks and vector embeddings for semantic search. These documents and their derived data remain scoped to your organization.
2.5 Usage Analytics
We collect usage metrics such as message volumes, API call counts, active session durations, feature usage patterns, and performance data. These metrics help us improve the platform, enforce subscription quotas, and provide you with analytics dashboards.
2.6 Payment Information
When you subscribe to a paid plan, we collect payment-related information necessary to process transactions. For mobile money payments (MTN, Orange), payment processing is handled by our third-party payment processor (S3P Maviance). We do not store full payment credentials on our servers; we retain only transaction references, subscription status, and billing history.
2.7 Technical Information
We automatically collect certain technical information when you access our services, including your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring URLs, and pages visited within our application.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Service Delivery: To provide, operate, and maintain our platform, including connecting your WhatsApp sessions, running your AI agents, processing conversations, and delivering real-time updates.
- AI Agent Operation: To power your AI agents by processing conversation data through large language models and retrieving relevant information from your knowledge base via vector search. AI training and fine-tuning data is scoped per organization and is never shared with or used to benefit other organizations.
- Analytics and Improvement: To generate usage analytics, monitor platform performance, identify and fix technical issues, and improve our services over time.
- Communication: To send you service-related notifications, respond to your support inquiries, and provide important updates about your account or our platform.
- Billing and Quota Management: To process payments, manage your subscription, enforce usage quotas, and maintain billing records.
- Security and Compliance: To detect and prevent fraud, enforce our terms of service, comply with legal obligations, and protect the rights and safety of our users and the public.
4. Data Processing for AI
Our platform uses artificial intelligence to power your WhatsApp agents. This section explains how your data is processed in the context of AI operations.
4.1 Conversation Processing
When your AI agent receives a message from a WhatsApp contact, the conversation content is sent to one or more third-party AI model providers to generate an appropriate response. We currently integrate with the following providers: OpenAI, DeepSeek, Mistral AI, and optionally self-hosted models via Ollama or RunPod. The specific provider used depends on your agent configuration and our intelligent routing system.
Conversation data sent to these providers is used solely to generate responses and is subject to each provider's data processing policies. We select providers that offer data processing agreements and do not use customer data for training their models.
4.2 Knowledge Base and Vector Embeddings
Documents you upload to your knowledge base are processed into smaller text chunks and converted into vector embeddings (numerical representations). These embeddings are stored in our database and are scoped exclusively to your organization. They are used to perform semantic searches so your AI agents can retrieve relevant information when responding to messages. No other organization can access or benefit from your knowledge base data.
4.3 Media Processing
If your AI agent is configured to handle media (images, voice messages), these may be processed using vision models (Google Cloud Vision or local Ollama/Llava models) and speech-to-text services (Whisper) to extract content. Media files are processed for your organization only and are stored according to your data retention settings.
5. Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. We share your data only in the following circumstances:
- Cloud Hosting Providers: Our infrastructure is hosted on cloud servers that store and process your data on our behalf.
- AI Model Providers: As described in Section 4, conversation data is transmitted to AI model providers (OpenAI, DeepSeek, Mistral) to generate responses. These providers act as data processors and are contractually obligated to protect your data.
- Payment Processors: Payment information is shared with our payment processing partner (S3P Maviance) to process transactions securely.
- Analytics Providers: We use PostHog for product analytics to understand how our platform is used and to improve the user experience.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your data if required to do so by law, in response to a valid legal process, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights, property, or safety of others.
6. Data Retention
We retain your data according to the following policies:
- Account Data: Your account information (name, email, organization details) is retained for as long as your account remains active. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
- Conversation Data: Conversations and messages are retained according to your organization's settings. You may configure automatic retention periods or manually delete conversations at any time through the dashboard.
- Knowledge Base Data: Uploaded documents and their vector embeddings are retained until you delete them or delete your account.
- WhatsApp Sessions: Session data is retained while your session is active. When you disconnect a session or delete your account, session data is removed promptly.
- Usage Metrics and Logs: Aggregated usage metrics and system logs are retained for up to 12 months for analytics and debugging purposes. Audit logs may be retained longer where required for security or legal compliance.
- Deletion Requests: You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at privacy@wazeapp.ai. We will process deletion requests within 30 days, subject to any legal retention obligations.
