Whoever agrees gives permission for the sharing of data between WhatsApp and parent company Facebook. This sharing of data does not apply to European users, because it is prohibited in the EU.
Agree to the terms
Anyone who wants to continue to use WhatsApp will have to agree to the new conditions. Those who do not do this will no longer be able to read and send messages from 15 May, reports WhatsApp on his website. “For a short period of time, you can still receive calls and notifications, but you cannot read or send messages through the app,” WhatsApp said.
