Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 6, 2025

1. Introduction

WAPES ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome extension handles your information when you use our WhatsApp bulk messaging tool.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

WAPES is designed with privacy as a core principle. We want to be clear about what we do NOT collect:

  • We do NOT collect your WhatsApp messages
  • We do NOT collect your contact lists or phone numbers
  • We do NOT collect your personal information
  • We do NOT transmit any data to external servers
  • We do NOT use analytics or tracking
  • We do NOT store any data outside your browser

3. How WAPES Works

WAPES operates entirely within your browser:

  • Local Processing: All message sending is performed directly in your browser using WhatsApp Web's interface
  • No Server Communication: The extension does not communicate with any external servers
  • Local Storage Only: Message templates and preferences are stored locally in your browser using localStorage
  • File Processing: Excel/CSV files are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded anywhere

4. Data Stored Locally

The following data may be stored locally in your browser (localStorage):

  • Message templates you create
  • Your delay preferences
  • UI preferences

This data never leaves your device and can be cleared at any time by clearing your browser data or uninstalling the extension.

5. Third-Party Services

WAPES interacts with WhatsApp Web (web.whatsapp.com) to send messages. Your use of WhatsApp is subject to WhatsApp's own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. We recommend reviewing WhatsApp's policies.
