The Retaliation Announced By WhatsApp If You Do Not Accept The Terms And Conditions Of May 15

The Retaliation Announced By WhatsApp states that WhatsApp has decreed a grace period (of an imprecise duration) in which it will show users a reminder to accept. If they don't, the reminder will become persistent. If, despite insistence, they still do not accept, their functions will be limited more and more severely until they do.

The arrival of the deadline (May 15) to accept the update of the WhatsApp Privacy Policy and Conditions is imminent. However, despite the original intentions of the company , WhatsApp will not immediately restrict the accounts of those who have not accepted and will grant a grace period (of indeterminate duration and that will vary from person to person) to users. Those who still do not accept will face restrictions that will become increasingly severe , as announced by the messaging app on its website .

WhatsApp ensures that "No user's account will be deleted or access to WhatsApp functions will be removed on May 15 due to this update." However, said statement explains that, after an indefinite period of time, it does intend to limit the functions of users who do not accept these privacy policies.

According to the WhatsApp publication, those users who have not accepted after May 15 will enter a grace period in which the application will show them notifications so that they accept the update of these terms and conditions and that, " after several weeks, the reminder will become persistent . "

PERSISTENT WHATSAPP REMINDERS

In this way, the arrival of the "persistent reminder" becomes the prelude to limitations. "From that moment on, you will have limited access to WhatsApp functions until you accept the updates," says WhatsApp.

Some restrictions that, as they explain "will not happen to all users at the same time ", without specifying possible deadlines for their execution.

However, WhatsApp does explain that the restrictions will have two different levels with increasing severity .

THE TWO LEVELS OF LIMITATIONS THAT WHATSAPP WILL IMPOSE

The first one will consist of " you will not be able to access your chat list, but you will be able to answer calls and video calls ". A level of restrictions in which WhatsApp ensures that "if you have notifications activated, you can touch them to read or reply to messages, as well as to return missed calls or video calls."

Some limitations that, if the user continues not to accept the update of the conditions and privacy policy of WhatsApp, will become even more severe . "After a few weeks of limited functionality, you will not be able to receive calls or notifications, and WhatsApp will stop sending messages and calls to your phone, " explains the company.

WHATSAPP AND "INACTIVE USERS"

Throughout the statement, WhatsApp reiterates on different occasions that "it will not delete your account if you do not accept the update ." However, it cautions that "independently, our inactive user policy will apply."

WhatsApp has repeatedly indicated that updating these policies does not bring about material changes in data processing as it is a country belonging to the European Union.
