Facebook & WhatsApp Data

Ficto Chat integrates with Meta's WhatsApp Business API and offers Facebook Login for tenant authentication. This section explains how we handle data obtained through these integrations.

Facebook Login

When you choose to sign in or register using Facebook Login, we request access to your public profile and email address. We use this information solely to:

  • Create or authenticate your Ficto Chat account
  • Pre-fill your name and email in your account profile
  • Issue a secure session token for dashboard access

We do not post to your Facebook profile, access your friends list, or store your Facebook access token beyond the authentication session.

WhatsApp Business API

Ficto Chat connects to the Meta WhatsApp Business Cloud API on behalf of tenant businesses. Through this integration we process:

  • Incoming and outgoing WhatsApp messages on behalf of connected businesses
  • Customer phone numbers (WhatsApp IDs) and display names
  • Message content for the purpose of AI-generated responses and conversation history
  • WhatsApp Business Account credentials (encrypted and stored securely)

Meta Platform Policy Compliance

Our use of Meta APIs complies with the Meta Platform Terms and WhatsApp Business Policy. We do not use WhatsApp message data to serve advertisements or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.

05

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to facilitate site functionality, improve user experience, and gather anonymized analytics. You can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies, although this may impact site usability.

06

How We Share Your Information

We may share your data with:

  • Service Providers: For hosting, analytics, CRM, email, and customer support
  • Meta Platforms: Message data is transmitted to and from Meta's WhatsApp Cloud API as part of the service
  • AI Providers: Message content may be processed by OpenAI or Google (Gemini) to generate automated replies, subject to their respective privacy policies
  • Legal Authorities: If required by law or to protect rights
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a sale, merger, acquisition, or asset transfer

We do not sell or lease your personal information for marketing purposes.

07

International Data Transfers

Though we operate from the UAE, our service infrastructure and providers may reside in other countries including the United States and European Union. By using our site or services, you consent to such data transfers in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
