Privacy Policy

Applies to the Weka browser extension and wekacrm.app

1. Who we are

Weka ("Weka", "we", "us") is a browser extension that adds organisational tools to WhatsApp Web. This policy explains what we collect, why, and what you can do about it.

Weka is an independent project, not a company. For anything in this policy, contact us at hello@wekacrm.app.

Weka is an independent product. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to WhatsApp LLC or Meta Platforms, Inc.

2. What we do not collect

This matters more than what we do collect, so it comes first.

• Your WhatsApp message history. Weka reads your chats inside your browser in order to filter them into tabs and show counts. That reading happens locally. Message content is never sent to our servers and we have no copy of it.
• Your contacts list. Weka can read your WhatsApp contacts in your browser so you can pick recipients, but it does not upload your address book to us.
• Your browsing history. Chrome displays a warning about "reading your browsing history" because Weka uses the tabs permission. That permission lets Weka see which tabs are currently open, so a reminder can bring you to the right WhatsApp tab. We do not read or collect your history.
• Payment details. Weka is free and we do not process payments or hold card data.

3. What we do collect

Account information

When you sign in — which you do through Google — we receive and store your email address and your name, so we can identify your account and keep your data separate from other users'. You may optionally provide a phone number.

Things you create in Weka

These are stored on our servers so they are available when you sign in on another computer:

What	What it contains
Tabs	The tab names you choose, and identifiers for the chats you put in them. A WhatsApp chat identifier is derived from a phone number, so placing a chat in a tab means we store that number.
Chat notes	The note text you write, and the identifier of the chat it belongs to.
Quick replies	The message templates you save, and any files you attach to them.
Scheduled messages	The message you wrote, any attachment, the recipient's chat identifier, and when to send it.
Broadcasts	The message you wrote, the recipients you selected, and whether each send succeeded.
Reminders	The chat and time you set, and any note you added.
Preferences	Your language and interface settings.

Note the distinction: we do not read your conversations, but a message you write and ask Weka to send later must be stored until it is sent. We treat it as yours.

Technical and error information

When something goes wrong, Weka sends an error report so we can fix it. These reports include the error, where in our code it happened, your browser version and the version of Weka. They are not designed to contain your messages, and we do not use them for tracking or profiling.

Weka does not include advertising trackers or third-party marketing analytics.

4. Why we are allowed to hold it

Where data protection law requires a lawful basis, ours is the performance of a contract — you asked us to provide Weka and these are the details required to do so — and our legitimate interest in keeping the product working and secure, which covers error reporting.

5. Who we share it with

We do not sell your data, rent it, or share it for advertising. A few service providers help us run Weka (database hosting, sign-in and crash reporting) and only handle data on our behalf. We may disclose information if the law requires it.

6. Where your data is held

Your Weka account data may be stored and processed outside the country you live in.

7. How long we keep it

We keep what you create for as long as your account is open. If you delete an item in Weka, it is removed from our database. If you ask us to delete your account, we delete your account record and the items associated with it within 30 days, except where we are legally required to keep something longer. Error reports are retained for up to 90 days.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live you may have the right to:

• ask for a copy of what we hold about you;
• have inaccurate information corrected;
• have your data deleted;
• object to or restrict how we use it;
• receive your data in a portable format;
• complain to your local data protection authority.

To exercise any of these, email hello@wekacrm.app. We will respond within 30 days. You never need to pay, and we will not make the product worse for you because you asked.

9. Security

Data is encrypted in transit. Access to your records is enforced at the database level, so one user's data cannot be read by another. Access to production systems is limited to the people who maintain Weka. No system is perfectly secure, and we will not claim otherwise — but we will tell you promptly if a breach affects you.

10. Children

Weka is a tool for work and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has given us data, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top, and for anything significant we will tell you inside the extension or by email before it takes effect.

12. Contact

Questions, requests, or concerns: hello@wekacrm.app. A person reads that address.
