Information We Collect

Session Data

We use browser cookies to maintain your session. A unique session identifier (UUID) is stored in your browser to associate your data with your session. No account creation or personal registration is required.

WhatsApp Connection Data

When you connect your WhatsApp account, we store your WhatsApp phone number, connection status, and the credentials necessary to maintain your WhatsApp Web session. This allows us to send scheduled messages on your behalf.

Message Data

We store the scheduled messages you create, including recipient phone numbers, message content, and scheduled delivery times. This data is necessary to deliver your messages at the specified times.

Contacts

When you connect WhatsApp, we may sync your WhatsApp contacts to help you select message recipients. Contact data is associated with your session and not shared with third parties.

Analytics Data

We use PostHog to collect anonymous usage analytics to improve our service. This may include pages visited, features used, and general usage patterns. This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.

  • Deliver scheduled WhatsApp messages at your specified times
  • Maintain your WhatsApp connection session
  • Display your contacts for recipient selection
  • Improve and optimize our service
  • Provide customer support when requested

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including encrypted database storage and secure API communications. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
