09Delivery Messages on WhatsApp
- When a business that uses RobustRoute sends delivery messages to its customers through it, RobustRoute processes those customers' data on the business's behalf and on its instructions.
- This covers the recipient's mobile number and name as the business provides them, the delivery address and location, and the recipient's replies: the buttons they tap, a location they share, and any text they send.
- We use it to agree a delivery time window, correct the delivery location, and ask whether the order arrived. We do not use it for marketing.
- The messages are carried by WhatsApp (Meta) through our messaging provider, and the data is stored with our hosting provider. Each of them may process it outside Saudi Arabia. WhatsApp (Meta) and our messaging provider keep their own copies of the messages under their own retention terms.
- The business chooses how long RobustRoute keeps this data, between 7 and 365 days (90 by default). After that, RobustRoute removes from its records phone numbers, names, addresses, the business’s order numbers, message text and exact locations; copies in our database backups go as those backups expire. What remains, for statistics, is a record of each delivery without direct identifiers: its dates, status and outcome, which messages were sent and what kind of reply came back, a one-way code (a hash) in place of the phone number and the business’s order number, and locations rounded to about 100 metres.
- A recipient can reply STOP to stop receiving these messages from that business. The opt-out is recorded against the WhatsApp account that sent it; if that account cannot yet be matched to one of the business’s contacts, messages to the contacts it could belong to are paused until the business reviews it.
