Change Summary
WhatsApp added two new sections to its privacy policy on June 11, 2026. The first establishes a new 'Privacy Rights for United States Residents' section directing users to a separate 'United States Regional Privacy Notice' for information about consumer privacy rights available under US law. The second changed the contact form URL from one address to another without altering the substantive contact process. These are primarily structural and procedural updates with no material change to data collection, processing, or user rights.
