WhatsApp EU policy adds subscription features and user choices to data processing purposes
The EU privacy policy now lists facilitating access to exclusive features for users who sign up for subscription features as a processing purpose, under both the contract and legitimate interests bases. It also adds 'User Choices' as a data category used to operate the Services. The effective-date line was removed, and other changes are reformatting of existing text.
