Harm To WhatsApp Or Our Users.
You must not (or assist others to) directly, indirectly, through automated or other means access, use, copy, adapt, modify, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, license, sublicense, transfer, display, perform,
or otherwise exploit our Services in impermissible or unauthorized manners,
- you must not, if unauthorized. So you can do this if it is authorized? Interesting...
(f) collect information of or about our users in any impermissible or unauthorized manner;
(g) sell, resell, rent, or charge for our Services or data obtained from us or our Services in an unauthorized manner;
- so all above actions on data are allowed if authorized?
Those are pieces of the whatsapp terms of service as I viewed in its latest form as of this note. What draw my attention was the use of "unauthorized manner" as condition to it not being allowed. Focus on the short paragraphs.
(I modified the paragraph to make it more readable.
Any sentence can be searched inside of the webpage of the terms of service itself to find its corresponding place in the text.
I advice to copy all text and then paste it into a text editor to utilize it's search functions if it is capable enough.)
