For clients using our order-management features, we may process order details, product information, quantities, pricing, and delivery information as provided by the client or their customers through WhatsApp conversations.

4.5 Technical and Operational Data

We collect technical information needed to operate and secure our services, including server logs, error reports, system events, API call records, and usage metrics. Our website does not use cookies, analytics tools, or tracking technologies.

4.6 Payment Information

DeepVault does not directly collect or store payment card details. All payment processing is handled by third-party payment providers such as Stripe or PayPal. These providers have their own privacy policies governing their handling of payment information.

5. How We Collect Information

We collect information:

  • directly from business customers during onboarding, contracting, and support;
  • through website inquiries and email communications;
  • through client and end-user interactions on our WhatsApp Business platform;
  • via the Meta/WhatsApp Business API, including webhooks and API responses;
  • automatically through the operation, monitoring, and security of our systems;
  • from third-party service providers that support our infrastructure.

6. How We Use Information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

  • to provide, operate, and maintain our software services and WhatsApp Business platform;
  • to facilitate message delivery, order management, and customer interaction workflows for our clients;
  • to build, configure, and support bespoke software solutions;
  • to enable and maintain integrations with Meta and WhatsApp Business APIs;
  • to communicate with clients about onboarding, support, updates, and service matters;
  • to monitor service performance, troubleshoot issues, and detect security threats;
  • to improve our services and internal operations;
  • to comply with applicable laws, including Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), and to enforce our agreements.

Where we process data on behalf of a business customer (as a data processor), we do so strictly in accordance with the client’s instructions and the terms of our service agreement.

7. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share personal information in the following circumstances:

7.1 Infrastructure and Service Providers

We use third-party providers to support hosting, infrastructure, and service delivery, including:

  • DigitalOcean – cloud hosting and infrastructure;
  • OpenRouter – AI model routing and processing;
  • Stripe / PayPal – payment processing (on behalf of clients).

These providers process information on our behalf and are contractually required to protect it.

7.2 Meta and WhatsApp

When clients use WhatsApp Business integrations, data is exchanged with Meta Platforms as necessary to send, receive, and manage messages through the WhatsApp Business API. Meta’s processing of this data is governed by Meta’s own terms and policies.

7.3 Business Customers

Where our platform is used by a client business, that client may access information relating to its own account, conversations, orders, and customer interactions.

7.4 Legal and Protective Disclosures

We may disclose information where necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests from Ghanaian authorities or courts, protect our rights, investigate misuse or security incidents, or protect users, customers, or the public.

7.5 Business Transactions

We may disclose information in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards.

8. Meta and WhatsApp Platform Data

Our WhatsApp Business platform is designed to help client businesses manage customer conversations and orders through the WhatsApp Business API. In connection with this:

  • we receive and process phone numbers, profile names, message content, attachments, message status events, template messages, and webhook data from Meta/WhatsApp;
  • we use this data solely to operate, support, and secure the platform on behalf of our clients;
  • we do not use WhatsApp or Meta platform data for advertising, data brokering, or any purpose unrelated to providing the requested service;
  • our clients are responsible for ensuring they have appropriate legal bases, notices, and permissions for their communications with end users;
  • we retain platform data in accordance with the retention periods described in Section 9.

Our use of WhatsApp Business API data complies with Meta’s Platform Terms and Developer Policies.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Our standard retention periods are:

  • Client account and administrator records: retained for the duration of the active service relationship, plus 12 months after account closure for recordkeeping and dispute resolution.
  • WhatsApp message and chat data: retained for the duration of the active service relationship. Deleted within 90 days after a client’s account is closed or the client requests deletion.
  • Order and transaction data: retained for the duration of the active service relationship. Deleted within 90 days after account closure, unless a longer period is required by law.
  • Support and communication records: retained for up to 12 months after the last interaction.
  • Server logs, backups, and audit data: retained for up to 12 months for security, troubleshooting, and compliance purposes.
  • Website inquiry data: retained for up to 12 months after the inquiry, unless the inquiry leads to an active client relationship.

When retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymised.

10. Data Security

We implement technical, administrative, and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, loss, or disclosure. Our current security measures include:

  • encryption in transit using HTTPS/TLS for all data transmissions;
  • encryption at rest for stored data;
  • role-based access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel;
  • two-factor authentication for all team members;
  • regular backups with secure storage;
  • audit and access logging to monitor system activity;
  • firewall and network security controls.

No method of storage or transmission is completely secure. While we take reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. International Transfers

Our services are primarily offered in Ghana. However, because our infrastructure providers (such as DigitalOcean) and integration partners (such as Meta) may process data in locations outside Ghana, personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the country in which it was originally collected.

Where such transfers occur, we take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is protected in accordance with this policy and applicable data protection laws, including Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843).

12. Your Rights

Under Ghana’s Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), and depending on other applicable laws, individuals may have rights to:

  • request access to personal information we hold about them;
  • request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information;
  • request deletion of personal information, subject to legal and contractual retention requirements;
  • object to or restrict certain processing of personal information.

If we process your information on behalf of a business customer (i.e., as a data processor), your request should be directed to that business in the first instance. We will assist the business customer in fulfilling such requests as required.

DeepVault as data processor: When we process personal information on behalf of a business customer through our WhatsApp Business platform (including end-user phone numbers, messages, orders, and related data), we act as a data processor.

16. Children’s Privacy

Our services are intended for business and commercial use and are not directed to children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, we will take prompt steps to delete it.
