Data Deletion

How to request the permanent deletion of your personal data from the GROW platform, including data obtained through the WhatsApp/Meta integration.

Last updated: July 31, 2026

Your data belongs to you

You can request the permanent deletion of your data at any time, without justification and free of charge. This page explains what we collect, why we collect it, how we store it, and the step-by-step process to delete everything.

01

What data we collect

GROW collects only the data necessary to operate the service:

Account and profile

  • • Name
  • • Email
  • • Phone number
  • • Password (encrypted)

Business data

  • • Company and address
  • • Services and prices
  • • Staff members
  • • Appointments and customers

WhatsApp / Meta

  • • Connected phone number
  • • Messages exchanged with customers
  • • Contact names and profile photos
  • • Message delivery status

Platform usage

  • • Access logs
  • • IP and device
  • • Essential session cookies
02

Why we use this data

  • To provide the contracted service: appointments, customer management, and reports
  • To send and receive WhatsApp messages on behalf of your business (confirmations, reminders, customer support)
  • To process payments and issue invoices
  • To provide support and improve the user experience
  • To comply with legal and tax obligations
  • To prevent fraud and protect the security of the platform

We never sell your data and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

03

How the data is stored

Data is stored in managed databases (Supabase/PostgreSQL) and cloud infrastructure (Vercel), on servers with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications, located in South America and North America.

  • Encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256)
  • Passwords stored with irreversible hashing (bcrypt)
  • Company-level isolation: each account can only access its own data (Row Level Security)
  • Automatic backups with limited retention
  • Restricted and audited internal access
04

How the WhatsApp/Meta integration works

GROW connects to WhatsApp so your business can send and receive customer messages within the platform. In this integration:

  • The connection is made with your explicit authorization (QR Code scan or the official Meta API)
  • Messages exchanged with your customers are processed and stored for display in the Inbox and for automations you configure
  • We receive from Meta/WhatsApp only the necessary data: phone number, profile name, profile photo, and the content of conversations from the connected account
  • We do not access conversations from unconnected accounts or contacts who have not interacted with your business
  • Processing follows Meta's policies (WhatsApp Business) and the LGPD
  • When you disconnect WhatsApp or delete your account, the session with Meta is terminated and the integration data enters the deletion flow described below
05

How to request the deletion of your data

You can request deletion in two ways:

Option A

From within the platform

Go to Settings → Account → Delete account. Deletion starts immediately after confirmation.

Option B

By email

Send an email to suporte.growltda@gmail.com with the subject "Exclusão de dados — Meta/GROW", providing your name, phone number, company name, and the registered email address. We will confirm your identity and begin the deletion.

Revoke access on Meta (optional): in your Facebook account, go to Settings & privacy → Settings → Apps and websites, select the GROW app, and choose Remove. This stops new access — to also delete the data already stored in GROW, send the request above.

What happens after your request:

  • Confirmation of receipt within 48 hours
  • Account deactivated and access terminated immediately
  • Permanent deletion of personal data, WhatsApp conversations, and files within 30 days
  • Minimal tax records may be retained for the legally required period (up to 5 years), stored in isolation
  • You receive an email confirming that the deletion has been completed

If you are an end customer of a business that uses GROW (for example, you received messages from an establishment), you can also request the deletion of your data directly via the email above — GROW will work with the controlling business to fulfill the request.

How to contact GROW

  • Support and privacy email: suporte.growltda@gmail.com
  • Official WhatsApp: (11) 99999-0000
  • Response time: up to 15 business days, as per the LGPD
