WhatsApp's privacy policy website was updated on June 24, 2026, with three sentences modified. The changes detected in the HTML markup involve updates to resource URLs, tokens, and stylesheets used to load the policy page itself, rather than changes to the substantive privacy policy text or terms that govern data handling. These appear to be technical updates to the web delivery infrastructure and do not alter what personal data WhatsApp collects, how it uses that data, or what rights users have.
No material changes to WhatsApp's privacy terms, data collection practices, or user rights have been detected. The updates identified are technical modifications to resource identifiers and stylesheets used to deliver the privacy policy webpage, not changes to the policy content itself. Users' data handling, transparency disclosures, and available controls remain unchanged.
