> 'WhatsApp cannot see your personal messages or hear your calls' vs 'WhatsApp does not keep logs of who everyone is messaging or calling'. This is definitely suspicious because it is so awkward. You would never say that sentence in that way. It could have easily been "WhatsApp does not keep logs of who you are messaging or calling" and that would have flowed much better. > Also, what about video calls? They have stated earlier that video calls are end-to-end encrypted in a similar way to voice and chat.

its two separate sentences: > Neither WhatsApp nor Facebook can see the content you share with family and friends, which includes your personal messages and calls, the attachments you share, or the location you send. They cannot see _what_ you send. But obviously they could still see who you send messages to. > We do not keep logs of who everyone is messaging or calling, and WhatsApp does not share your contacts with Facebook." Which means that they cannot keep aggregate logs of call data, this is to align with the next bits of GDPR. However it doesn't preclude monitoring individuals, as that is a legal requirement. the rough translation is: we cannot keep logs of who called whom, unless we are asked to by governments. The irony is, that if whatsapp were charging for usage, they would actually be able to store and use the aggregate call data.
