Privacy & data

Waho privacy & data

What the developer declares on Google Play, what those declarations do and don’t mean, and how to check the current position yourself.

Every app on Google Play has to publish a Data safety section. It's written by the developer and Google displays it as submitted. Here is Waho's, in full, with a note on what each line means in practice.

Waho's data safety declaration

Waho data safety declaration on Google Play
DeclarationWhat the listing saysWhat that means
SharingNo data shared with third partiesThe developer states it doesn’t pass your data to other companies. This is a declaration, not an audit.
CollectionPersonal info, App info and performance, Device or other IDsGoogle’s category labels. “Personal info” covers things like name and contact details; “Device or other IDs” covers identifiers used to recognise your device.
EncryptionData is encrypted in transitProtected while moving between your phone and the servers. Not a claim of end-to-end encryption.
DeletionYou can request that data be deletedThere’s a route to have your data removed. Uninstalling the app is not that route.

The developer's privacy policy

The full policy is published by the developer at https://statics.waho.live/about/policy.html, linked from the Play listing. We link to it rather than summarising it, because policies get revised and a summary written today would misrepresent it in six months.

Worth reading for: what's collected and why, how long it's kept, who can access it, and how to make a deletion request.

The location descriptor

Waho's content rating carries the descriptor “Shares Location” alongside “Users Interact” and “In-App Purchases”. That means the app is capable of sharing location with other users.

If you'd rather it didn't, Android gives you the control regardless of what the app prefers:

  1. Open Settings → Apps → Waho → Permissions → Location.
  2. Choose Don’t allow, or Ask every time if you want the option.
  3. Where the app offers a precise/approximate toggle, approximate is the safer default.

Google's guide to changing app permissions covers this for every Android version.
